Master 12 Research Paper
Saturday February 26, 2016 was possibly one of the worst weekends ever. The Retro Mater 12’s were releasing and I wanted a pair, but come with the issue of limited release. The Master 12’s are mainly a black shoes; all black upper, with white and gray detailing on the middle sole, and lastly features gold eyelets. .

I needed a size 9.5 in men’s; millions of teenage boys in this county wear a 9.5. If I knew that I didn’t have a good chance of getting them, maybe I would’ve put more effort into it.

Others decided to sit outside all night and wait not knowing if they even had a chance to get the shoes of not. After all that went on that day I ended up not getting the shoes. It was such a disappointing day because I really was looking forward to receiving the

I even wore them to notable occasions like funerals or parties. They were always in immaculate condition, until March……
