80s/90s kids, were you a BK fan or an LA Gear fan?

I had this pair of BKs in the late 80s. I only had one pair, but I wore them until they fell apart. Grew older, I became a fan of Nike and Air Jordan's, but I did have one pair of LA Gear. They were too freaking heavy, though.

Stan Smith, KSwiss, Reebok. Shoes weren't really ghetto or a status symbol in my circles. That's what Polo was for.

I used to wear BK and K Swiss.
I remember people in bigger cities saying if you wore BK you were in a gang.

BK was Crip gear. BK = Blood Killer.

Had some LA Lights early on, but I wore holes in my teal Ken Griffey Jrs and then my Marshall Faulk's

LA Gear was the first with lights, that's the answer.

No Fear was the best you could get as far as t-shirt game.

My mom refused to buy me expensive shoes until my feet quit growing. I had Pony's.

They gave BK's to double dare winners

I had both but I preferred BK. I was really into big high tops back then. Skidz and BK were a winning combination for me.

Neither, I had Stan Smith's and my sisters had Tretorns. I didn't wear tennis shoes much though, unless I was actually playing tennis or some other athletic endeavor. Mostly wore Weejun's without socks or Sperry's.
