Can't remember exactly either, got my first pair about 25-26 years ago when i was 5-ish. The only thing i do remember, they were white with black or blue stripes and that's about it. I doubt the original pair's been stored anywhere for future reference so i could take a pic.. Not quite sure either what initially got me into loving them as much as i do now. Must have been something powerful.
Always wore a pair of black or white supes (or occasionally black Gazelles
) to the ground throughout my school years and didn't get a new pair until the current ones were totally beaten to death. I sure loved them and wore supes everywhere all the time when being outside. Then again i was also many years without any white ones due to getting kinda sick of them until recently i've been starting to get some various white pairs again. Seriously started to pay more interest in supes collecting wise only a couple of years ago and have since sloooowly been building up the collection with a 0-4 pairs a month on average, sometimes more, sometimes less depending what i come across.

Doing nothing is very hard to do... you never know when you're finished.
