Lab products rarely go on sale from Nikes website
Maybe other sites will discount them but I can't remember a time where a product from the Lab page got discounted. They usually just pull them completely by that point

Anyone who has the reds comment on comfort? I have these, and while they look good, they're really not very comfortable. Maybe my memory eludes me, but I recall the OG reds I had in '87 being very comfortable, feeling the air unit compress with each step. Either they're making the PSI in modern AM1s too high, or the context for comfort was diff back then.
Also, why would they spend so much energy re-doing this shoe without making the air window larger like the OGs? I recall that being so much larger in length and height!
Even if I could get the royals with no effort, I'm torn. I like them for the nostalgia, and improved shape, however, they're just not as comfortable to wear overall compared to the ultra versions of AM1s (and AM90s). I'm done buying shoes I never end up wearing much.

Loooooove those. I need to add a pair to my collection badly. I saw someone post a size 9 sample last night. Only difference was it had a leather heel on it.

Yea it was something crazy. Super cool but not sure I'd ever wear it. It'd be more like a trophy and truthfully I don't want trophy shoes. I want shoes I can wear and I wouldn't be comfortable wearing a 1 of 1 sample of an iconic shoe like that.
