OFFICIAL AIR FORCE ONE THREAD!!!!!

[jshortt]

Satisfied With These.

Box is nice but be careful, seems fragile :/

For sure something up with these boxes. It was wild how many I saw that got destroyed in transit to shops.

Nike Air Force 1 Low “Four Horsemen”
Color: White/Deep Forest-Wolf Grey
Style Code: FB9128-100
Release Date: April 7, 2023
Price: $140

I believe this is the first time they’ve slapped a weenie swoosh on a retro mold. Better not be a sign of things to come. I’ll happily go back on AF1 sabbatical.

Finally got home to unbox. Definitely a dope collaboration I didn’t expect to actually get my hands on. Top notch materials & the qc is great. Showed up in pristine condition, Tiffany definitely packed them with care. I’ll hold onto them for a while & see what happens

Weenie swoosh? Swoosh looks normal to me? What am I missing?

At bottom of laces. U throat.

Was bigger back in the day.

Those actually weren’t retro mold.

It’s the proper size on the COTM pairs. And those Aaron linens you have.

What is the 'retro' mold?

The mold has been jacked up since the early 2000's.

In ‘07 they started sewing the eyelets into the liner. Most pairs have kept this.

At some point (2015 maybe) they started giving some pairs a ‘Retro’ designation and put them in a black box with style code 845053. These pairs reverted to the eyelet being sewn over the liner, along with flat tongue, better toe shape and more lockdown. The mold was typically reserved for actual retro colorways but has also been used on other like the Soho pairs and the Kith Knicks pairs.

Ooooh the mini swoosh, got it. Man I looked at that side swoosh for 2 minutes and was all confused.

Very interesting. Could have fooled me, Nike!!

I feel like every AF1 that's released over the past 2 decades has a slightly different shape. Don't know what is what these days. COTM's are decent shape-wise.

Yup. It’s been all over the place lately. Actually improved in a lot of regards. I actually couldn’t care less about the eyelet stitching but for years it was the best way to tell from a pic whether a pair had a flat tongue and heel padding.

Nike is definitely trending up in shape and materials across the board the past few years.

The leather on the tiffany colored swoosh is great on the shoe but the softness of it makes me a bit wary of it getting super dirty from anything that touches it.

Any thoughts of seeding a 10.5 to a NT OG?

I'll promote them very well for you.

the F&F pair is just alright and not substantially better than the released version. I think the perfect version is a mix of both lol. Like white midsole and Tiffany outsole on the black pair imo

 

[dblplay1212]

Yea this is one of those times where the gr is better than the f&f. The 2018 Parra AM1 was the same way. I have both and would take the gr every time over the f&f.

 

[buddhashark]

The GR is perfect. If you don’t agree sell me your pair for retail plus shipping.

They’re both mid
