Yea half up for these. They run extra narrow. I have a wide foot and had to go a full size up...

I rather the clear toe cap. Jan. will be my hunt for the Euro Air Max Plus "Tigers". I love my Hyper Blue's, but I absolutely HATE those Sunsets that dropped here.

Those are super nice. Random colors just drop here in the US without any warning lol

Thats great and all, but how about we get some good colorways like all the stuff they got in Australia?
I mean look at the colorways. 12 of them and they're all black, silver, grey, white, navy...
Nothing that actually stands out. I mean at least retro some of the older colors from the late 90's/early 2000's

I totally agree... But it seems are wants and wishes are far from coming true. So when something "decent" does come about its appreciated. I would much rather OG CW's though

It's because the U.S. isn't heavy in runners. Go to the UK and AUS and that's all they wear. So Nike caters to what sells more there...

This is true, just sucks for those of us that prefer runners/trainers

I can understand not sending all CW's to the US but the ones they do seem pretty average. As someone said make extra of say the white volts they'd probs sell well. Instead its solid colors mostly that aren't bad but def not as good as some of the ones we get in Aus. Wouldn't it be cheaper to make more of the 1 CW for Nike anyway

Europe/US don't get the white based Australia AMP, people tends to buy darker cws more.
Nike must have some marketing studies reports & sales analysis to corroborate that.
The problem is the lack of communication from Nike/FTL/Champs, Foot Locker salespersons i talked to in France don't know **** about sneakers.
I'm surprised that Nike still don't show the samples cws on social media, then 'we' the customers could choose the sample to be released by a voting system for example.
They have to tease us more with upcoming cws, they magically appear in FTL/Champs, i guess it's ok for random customers but not for the sneakers passionates.
Also, the drop of quality through the years really hurt the Air Max Plus (and the image of Nike), because of that, most of the OG AMP sneakers collectors in France don't buy AMP anymore.
I hope that things will change in the years to come.

God what I would do for that pair with the Carolina blue mesh with the red swoosh and shank and the white "flames"...
Reminiscent of a Houston Oilers colorway.
That post right there just proved my point. How Australia gets all these damn bright colors and we get literally none. So frustrating.

^ This Nike sucks ballzzzzzzz, I just recently discovered the fact that they retro'd these shoes and want the tiger colorway so badly with the clear toe cap but see that they didn't release that model here in the US and now its too late for me to find them in my sz which is a 13 lol hard as hell to find anything in bigger sizes especially that shoe in that colorway lol but I did just order 2 pairs of the hyper blues for below retail which I had when I was younger and always loved so happy to at least have those, but still want that damn tiger pair smh

Start checking your local Champs, y'all.
Broke my neck when I walked by the store.
