OFFICIAL AIR FORCE ONE THREAD!!!!!

[94feet]

I did mine literally the first few moments they were up. I paid Debit Card. You cant tell I guess from the pic but the tongue is Cement. I'll post more pic when I get home. I'm happy with em but I think the $200+ was a little O.D. But I do like em obviously.

 

[mfpearson]

yeah, sounds like they are just doing it in order of the time the orders were placed... which makes perfect sense. i'll prepare to wait a few more weeks for mine, i guess - but its nice to see everyone's else's in the meantime, so keep them coming as you receive them!

 

[nikeking9389]

for tomorrows occasion...

 

[rhythmentality]

Pardon the mobile phone pics again, can't find my camera.
 
Arrived yesterday. 2nd pair. Mixed feelings. Considering return.
 

 
Forreal though, they look way better in pics than they do in person.

I had my order within 30 minutes of them going up.  I talked to Nike today, they said my order was expected to ship on March 7th.  So I have no clue how they determine which orders are shipping when.  I ordered 3 pairs if that made a difference.

Nike Air Force 1 High ‘Dream Team’
By John K. · Published Feb 21st, 2012

While the Nike Air Force 1 High didn’t participate in the 1992 Olympics and the Dream Team’s Gold Medal, the shoe is deserving of credit for paving the way for some of the designs seen on the court for that game. Shoes like the Nike Air Force 180 share some design and engineering cues set for by the Air Force 1, so it deserves an honorary captaincy for the upcoming Nike Sportswear ‘Dream Team’ Collection that we previewed earlier. The Nike Air Force 1 High ‘Dream Team’ features a patriotic theme captured by the simple Red/White/Blue colorway, accentuated by the metallic gold swoosh and the sick 1992 USA Basketball logo on the tongue label. The translucent outsole acts as a window for a special ’1992 Barcelona’ graphic for a direct homage to that historic ’92 team. We’ve got a detailed look at the Air Force 1 High ‘Dream Team’ after the jump so take a look and stick with Sneaker News for more info and updates.

That could be it. My guess is, while waiting for payment to clear, it probably put you behind numerous orders that might've paid differently where their payments cleared immediately. Highly doubt ordering numerous pairs would matter, 'cause I got charged individually for my 2 pairs, and they were also shipped out individually.

went OD' on the elephant print but i like them

 

[vood99]

Elephant print and laser etching are quite similar - if you use them sparingly as 'accents' they actually look quite good. However when you go overboard, they look like utter 'doo-doo'.

 

[itsaNYthing]

Black Supreme IDs came in.. 1/500 pairs made on NikeID Im sure

Not bad. I think a White Supreme pair would have looked better though.

 

[mfpearson]

somethingdunk - definitely went crazy with the elephant, but i think it works since the shoe is only 2 colors.  another color in there might put it over the edge.
rhythm - what did you decide on those?  i think the hi-top makes them look kinda goofy, although i do like the colorway.  the clear neon sole looks really nice.

still waiting patiently for my pair... most of you probably won't like it - very jordan-inspired and i mixed all 3 materials, but it looked good to me in the previews...

 

[taylorswiftordie]

Dammit I'm jeAlous I thought getting these white cements would take my mind off but no luck hopefully the get here soon keep posting pics I'm pretty sure out of the 750 pairs made at least 300 are nt'ers

 

[buttons mcboomboom]

Ugh my ID is still "In Progress" ...seeing everyone get theirs just makes me want mine all the more. To those that have received theirs already how is the quality? In particular how is the quality of the regular leather? I went with basic white for the toebox and am wondering if they will just end up looking creased and beat after 10 wears or so like the reg AF1s.

See, I don't know though, 'cause I thought it looked dope on-screen:
 

 
The final product didn't look as cool. I thought it was the sole not being as bright.

Nothing I've ordered has any regular leather on it, but the quality on everything else is decent. The elephant print feels slightly firmer than the print on AJ IIIs, and the nubuck doesn't seem like it's susceptible to creasing.
 
Don't have the heart to break 'em in yet, to see how they'll hold up to creasing. I like how they look... in deadstock condition.

 

 

[djanonymous30]

Here's my iteration of the supremes

 

[stuntman mike]

the regular ID leather is much better than the plastic pleather found on the current GR forces.

Ditto.

 

[onemandeep]

nice ids, and those cement limes are hard.

 

[panaricanretro]

Those USA's are sick. Can't wait until they drop. Doesn't seem like they'll be too hyped up either, everybody's talking about all the other olympic stuff dropping.

For those that have IDs, do they run a little bigger than regular GR's or the same?

 

[technique 317]

^^I go half size down on IDs and they fit perfect for me

 

[panaricanretro]

^^^Thanks appreciate. I think I'm goin in on a couple pairs the next time they're available...

 

[cw0974]

i don't see that many af1's being hyped anymore. still my top pick for everyday shoes.
