Given the friendly rivalry that exists between the super-fans for each of the Air Jordan Legacy silhouettes, is it possible that the Nike Air Force 1 has earned more devotees in its thirty years than any other single sneaker design in history?  You don’t stay on top for three decades without having the style and substance to satisfy huge numbers of sneakerheads, and this new Nike Air Force 1 Lux Max Air from the Pearl Collection celebrates the AF1′s 30th anniversary by showing how far the cushioning system it debuted has really come.  No longer is the Air inside the heel or even peeking through a window on the rear of the sole; this pair gives you that 360 look and really enhances the crisp cloud-like appeal of this white and silver VacTech construction that Jeremy Lin was spotted wearing at NBA All-Star weekend.  Click through to see more angles and find yours at select Nike Sportswear stockists like Millennium Shoes come March 3rd.

Nike Air Force 1 Lux Max Air

$225

Vac-Tech, (clear) Air Max Sole and $225 price tag. They have the nerve to hustle this junk as an AF1?

I made typical supreme inspired af1 added grey sole for that cement 3 look

oh ok - my bad for the misunderstanding.
mine actually arrived today - and i never even received a shipping confirmation.  i ordered them right around the time you did, so i'd expect them this week.

they turned out amazing - much better than my expectations, and even better than the preview pics on nikeid depicted them.  i'll take pics for everyone tomorrow when the light is better.

they also sent me the wrong color for my 2nd pair of laces - called them up, and they are sending me 2 more pairs - the color i actually chose (varsity red), another bonus color of my choosing (black) - and they are letting me keep the wrong ones they sent me (plain white).  excellent customer service, if you ask me.

Ok, I'm asking a question here. Is the AF1 NikeID invite only because I do not see it on the site. Can someone point me in the right direction?

they sold out in about 2 days at the beginning of feb. new options will be online come march 1st.

 

[dc shoedon]

Cool. Thanks man. That's all I was asking since the option wasn't on the site anymore.

 

[johnnyblaze036]

mine finally came in today, threw some sb laces in them (also did nubuck on the tongue try and mimic the mesh on the OGs):



quality is on point on these, couldnt be happier.

They actually sold out by the end of the first night by like 7pm or so I may be wrong dough. Supremes looking dope but man i wish i would of used just of hint of nubuck on my pair i have a feeling that i used too much leather and its going to look too plasticky will see dough my pair is set too arrive tomorrow.

 

[montanainc]

SUSPENDED.

 

[mfpearson]

had to share my ID's - definitely a departure from the many supreme copies/variations.  leather swoosh and eyestay, suede side panels, tongue, and toebox - the mixture of all 3 materials turned out amazing, in my opinion.  the midsole only looks this shiny because of the way the camera flash is hitting it, although it is shinier than normal even without the flash.  anyway, i love the way these turned out, definitely $205 well spent:

 

[xilegacy]

Very nice Matt. I am still waiting on my 3 pairs. Starting to get worried.

 

[mfpearson]

thanks, kazi.  i think i mentioned it earlier, but they didn't even bother sending me a shipping email. every time i'd call the 1800 number, the automated message would say they're shipping this week or next. then they just showed up.

2 of mine come tomorrow, just got a delay till March 30th notice on my third (I talked to them couple days ago, and they told me my entire order would ship the 7th).  I am worried, as well, that one will get cancelled... better not, I had my order in 15-20 minutes of those things going live.

 

[chuionthis]

Just got emails saying they are delayed until March... whack...

Wait till you see the price tag on foamposite with 360 air unit.

Nike is going to keep kicking me in the nads .

 

[panaricanretro]

^^^Maybe the foams will sell, but no way those Vac-techs are selling at $225. With all the stuff dropping? I actually like them alot, but I can wait until they drop, and if they don't drop, oh well.

Nike Air Force 1 Low Premium QS ‘Pearl’ – Reflective White
By Aaron Hope · Published Feb 29th, 2012

A 30th wedding anniversary is traditionally commemorated with pearls, but when a loved one has given you as much as the Nike Air Force 1 has in its three decades, one token of appreciation simply isn’t enough. One of the three AF1 XXX ‘Pearl Collection’ participants, this new Air Force 1 Low Quickstrike takes the beloved white-on-white look to new heights. Not only does the upper get a boost from a milky translucent sole, but it’s also hiding a reflective 3M secret that’ll be revealed under the right lighting. The quality and detail on these is fitting such a momentus occasion for the most-colored sneaker in history, and you can see a batch of new images after the jump below. via atmos

THESE LOOK

I think they release this saturday

 

[mfpearson]

^ I'd imagine those midsoles/soles are going to yellow horribly over time.

 

[taylorswiftordie]

Mine came in! Over all im satisfied somewhat with the outcome I will be the first one to come out and admit that i used a little too much elephant print i should of used less plus used some nubuck also ill use all my creative juices for when i make a bespoke lol

 

[davecfprez]

Hey guys, I've heard that when ordering AF1s you'll get a better fit if you order a 1/2 size smaller than what you usually wear. Do you guys find this to be true?

Elephant Courirs

When do these options get taken off?

 

[shoehd]

just placed an order for a pair of ids before they take away the elephant print option, now the 6 week wait begins :/

 

[buttons mcboomboom]

Couldn't resist on double dipping with an grey elephant / volt pair. The wait begins again.
