About me: So here is my story; The year was 1991. My Dad, brother and I went out shopping. We came back and my brother copped a pair of Bordeauxs (Air Jordan 7s). My Mum flipped out at the cost and whacked my brother for tricking my Dad into buying them. After all the commotion and the fireworks, the next dew days were a sight for sore eyes. Everywhere we went, all eyes were on my brothers shoes!  I was like “MAN I needed these shoes!”.

So I worked hard on my paper rout and saved up for a whole year and finally, Finally had enough money to buy My very own pair. At that time Raptors(Air Jordans 7s) just dropped. The rest as they say, is History.

At that time I was heavily involved in the junior Sydney United soccer club. With my new pair of basketball shoes though, this prompted me to actually play Basketball.  My love for the game of basketball grew more and more, day by day.  Watching MJ, Magic and great NBA players got me loving it more so. So when the time came to join a basketball team, I jumped at the chance, literally. Noticing that there were other models of Air Jordans releasing, this got me intrigued more and more about the sport and them Air jordans. As
the years went on so did my hunger to be great at playing basketball. Along the way , I had to have the best kicks on court and my
proudest moment came when I rocked my concords to my first ever Representative Sydney Comets Basketball game.  And the love
of concord XI’S was born.
