Ask most sneakerheads and they'll tell you that the "golden era" of sneakers was the '90s. It was a time period that put sneakers in front of everyone — whether you were a basketball fan, a metal fan, hip-hop junkie, a sports fan or just a regular dude enjoying life, you couldn't help but notice sneakers in the 1990s. Athletes like Andre Agassi and Michael Jordan and bands like the Beastie Boys and Megadeth put sneakers on the world map and it was for good reason. Nike, adidas, Reebok and Converse all made some of their greatest sneakers in the 10 year period that ran from 1990 to the year 2000. With that in mind, take a look at the Greatest Sneaker Moments of the 90s and let us know what you favorite moment was from the best era of sneakers.
