I was rockin these bad boys in 1975. The commercial showed kids running fast and jumping over bushes. Had to get me a pair. Wish I could get me a pair now. Can you imagine how fast I could clean carpet?

I was a poor kid in the East Bay Area. I was a big 49ers fan. I remember Joe Montana used to be the spokesperson for L.A. Gear. I remember how happy I was when my mom bought me a pair. I thought I was in the In-Crowd. I remember those shoes were heavy as hell.





Wasn't Montana the guy that rep'd skechers as well when they claimed you could lose weight with those weird thick sole shoes - just by walking?



And then they had to walk back (no pun intended) the claims and maybe even buy back shoes or pay fines when it came out that it was all bs...

Use to use mink oil when I was 16. Been a good 30 years since I've had boots that needed it.
