    Two thoughts.

    #1, I never would have dreamed that there were that many Dolphins variety shoes.

    #2, I want to see that last pair in person..more specifically to see someone actually walk in them. In other words, I want to see how gracefully they fall down once they inevitably trip.

    I'm not fundamentally opposed to the idea, but most of those look like something that are only appropriate for grade school kids. The bottom pair in the first post could be tasteful if they only had one logo on each shoe.

    The Air Max 97 shoes were actually a Miami Hurricanes colorway, I believe.

    There is a Nike Air Max Speed Turf in the Dolphins colors, that were worn by Marino. Those are sweet shoes that I wear every once in awhile.

    I had a pair similar to that when I was in high school in the early 90s. Nike and Reebok were both really pushing turf football shoes as everyday wear, and I bought in for a while as a teenager.

    The ones in this picture are Nike Spindrifts, circa 2002. They are far and away the best pair of shoes that I've ever worn, and I absolutely wore them to death over about three years before they fell apart. I've been seeking out similar shoes ever since then, with up and down success.

    Aah, that makes more sense- so these aren't shoes in production right now.

    I think that some probably are. My teenage nieces and nephews wear things similar to this.

    I think they were part of the ACG line (all conditions gear) that came out in the 90s. I remember having a pair in that line, they were much more aggressive tread than a normal sneaker.

    They were. That was my favorite stuff that Nike ever made. Very much my style. The knobby tread on the bottom is what I've looked for in shoes since that point. I have extremely high arches and a very wide toe box compared to the rest of my foot, and those were built like they were custom designed for my feet. I think that they look really cool too.
