Let's get this out of the way right away — there is no shortage of retro sneakers available. Walk into any sneaker store, from the most exclusive boutique to the most suburban Foot Locker, and the shelves will be filled with models from years past. But look closer. A lot of times it's just the same models delivered in different ways, while equally valuable gems sit unremembered in archives and sample closets. To kick off 2012 proper, here's The Top 25 Sneakers That Should be Retroed Right Now.

      LOL. I couldn't agree more. Those adidas at number 2 are just the worst, yuk. Who the hell even knew the X-Man had a shoe.

    I had a pair of Nike Air Flight Lite Mid II's back in '92 and they were the absolute BOMB! I always hoped Nike would retro these. They were lightweight, comfortable, solid, secure, and they had great ankle support. They are very underrated and I considered them the number 2 shoe next to the Air Jordan 7. Is it any wonder Jordan & Pippen won the title with the Bulls?

    Only like, 10 of these sneakers should ever be seen by civilized humans again, the rest should stay in the past. Those Air Ships were sweet though, I hope Nike Retros those instead of more Jordan III's, though more Jordan III's wouldn't hurt.
