Attempting to wear a different pair of sneakers from my collection every day for one year. No duplicates for 365 days. Starting April 24th 2009 to April 24th 2010. Not much heat, but a lot of kicks!

Day 414 Converse Weapon Classic Hi : Congratulations Lakers! All of us here in LA thank you for keeping the trophy here.  And the 4th quarter of game 7 was epic.  Now I have worn purple and gold weapons before, but these are way different.  These are the closest I’m going to get to Magic’s actual game worn style.  If you take a look at these and compare them to the weapons that they make now, you can totally see the difference.  Almost everything, although very similar, is different.
For reference, here’s a pic of the other Weapons I wore.
 
The tongue, midsole, laces, logo on the heel, liner, insole, and shape of upper are all different.  But only sneaker nerds like me only give a damn. 
Heck, I don’t even give a damn right now because the Lakers pulled off the greatest win in LA Finals history - a game 7 over the hated Celtics.

Day 236/370 Converse Weapon : Magic Johnson wore these back in the day and they are one of my favorite styles for that reason.  In its past iteration, not its current one. There have been so many different changes from the original that even though its called the weapon, It’s a totally different shoe.  But they’re still Laker colors and they still represent Magic - so I wear them.
