The original Pump design was unveiled back in 1988. It featured an innovative pump on the heel that sent a cushion of air around the contours of the foot, and a release mechanism to get the fit just right. Several engineering tweaks later, the pump ball landed on the tongue of the shoe in the iconic shape of a basketball. The Pump first hit America’s courts and streets on November 24th, 1989 and by year’s end 50,000 pairs had flown off the shelves. Twenty-two years later… The Pump legacy continues. The world’s first fully customizable shoe is still going strong, fitting your personal style as uniquely as it fits your feet. Hit the jump to see the pics and tell us did you own a pair?…  DJJuanyto
