I'm playing in PG3s and they've been absolutely perfect for me so far.

Was it these? Unique looking shoe - very cool IMO

That was them all right, except I think mine had black instead of the blue. They were sharp though.

The three most comfortable.

In 1991 I had the AIR Jordan 7's

Jason Kidd's Nike Air Zoom Flight ’96

Nike Air More UptempoTriple White. These had so much padding in them I wore them all the time when they debuted.

The comfort and performance of these shoes I would describe as a potato, but they looked great.

These? I had a pair and I thought they were the coolest. These, the Barkleys, and the Jordan VI are my all-time faves.

Jordan is the GOAT but Penny is the Shoe GOAT.

Honorable mention to Kemp's Reebok kamikazes.

I had those in black. They were good shoes. I played in those and in the Payton’s primarily.
