Alright, so I've been wanting to snag a pair of Michigan Jordan 12s for a while now. I mean, that colorway? Fire. But, you know, they're not always the easiest to find, and when you do, the price can be...ouch.
The Hunt Begins
My search started online, just browsing around, seeing what was out there. I scourederd a bunch of different sites, you know, the usual suspects. Some had them in my size, some didn't. Some had them for, like, a million dollars (okay, exaggeration, but still!). It was a total mixed bag.
- Checked out some resell sites - saw some crazy prices.
- Looked at some smaller boutiques online - no luck there either.
- Even tried a few online raffles – struck out every time.
I was starting to get a little discouraged, honestly. It felt like every pair was either way too expensive or just plain unavailable.
The Breakthrough(Eventually)
So, I kept at it. I changed my ways, I looked around local group, asked about buddies. It spent much more time than online. Finally, After a lot of digging, I found this one guy who's selling. The size is what I want, color is perfect. and also not too expensive.
Of Course I did everthing to make sure it is not a fake one. Color, shape, and other details. I also did comparing with the offical one online.
The Victory!
Yep, I finally copped them! Got them in hand, and man, they're even better in person. The navy and yellow just pop, and the quality is awesome. Totally worth the effort.
I wore them for a couple days, and they're pretty comfortable too. And so many friends asked me about them. I was thinking all the previous efforts have paid off.
So, yeah, that's my story of getting the Michigan Jordan 12s. It took some time and effort, but it was definitely worth it. If you're hunting for a pair, don't give up! Keep searching, and you might just find your own pot of gold (or, you know, pair of awesome shoes).
