Those are clean, reminds me of Kid Robot. Well, the inner lining portion of the sneaker.

Can't wait for the coffee and chocolate colorway to drop!

I know, I was making a joke.

Yeah I know, I just had to say it....

Those IDs are dope as

 

[AIRMAXDISCIPLE]

I mean the air unit on obsidians should be red! Right?!?!

OG AM1 cws arent supposed to have colored air units
they only did that with the previous OG obsidian retro
all the other retros before had the white air unit just like the 88 OGs

 

[modzzilla]

He’s done a good job on those IDs.

Think I’d take the top ones, no embossed swoosh and sail outsole.

Might grab em.

 

[modzzilla]

Damn that gummy outsole though...

Thanks AMD as always
Started to "collect" in the bad shape era (from 2009). What a timing
So I only own the 2012s and the Paris Patch (both with the red air unit)!

Thanks AMD as always

Nike should’ve sent early access to poeple on Tuesday the latest, last month they sent out 5 days before the release but we all received our shoes the day after the 26. I wonder what’s going on this month. Are these a hyped CW. If Nike hasn’t sent out early access by today or tomorrow then some of us might not double up. No boutique stores around my area posted anything about the release this Friday. Maybe a late shipment??

 

[seandon23]

Nike usually does reserves on most kicks two days before release so we should know by today if they send out reserves

 

[vinnuendo]

Yes, beautiful. Don't know who mentioned it already, but looks really like a paint job! I mean the air unit on obsidians should be red! Right?!?!

Yeah, I think it looks photoshopped. The eyelet color is the exact same as the 103 red, in contrast to the bright red on the toe of the sole. The obsidian mudguard has a couple of uneven lines where it goes over the midsole/suede panel.

I thought it was photoshopped also. In addition to the colors looking off the midsole looks like the midsole from the 100's not the 103's which wouldn't really make since moving forward.

Got a Nike notification...thinking it was for the royal

 

[PJS]

Yep
Certain weather conditions dictate sometimes but I would never worry about the state of the soles

Wear your pairs

I'm 27 and feel the exact same way, especially because history has shown us that most if not all of these companies will retro a shoe at some point anyway. So worrying about things like the soles touching the ground and getting dirty, which is what they're designed for in the first place, never really made sense too me. Wear your shoes, make memories, then buy the retro 7 years later

They are all going to crumble.
What’s the difference? Replace the midsole after 10 years.

For Air Jordan’s, the older shoe is in good condition, the more valueable. So replace midsole is a must.

Really happy with both of these. I was still a bit iffy about the teal/emerald jewels but shape is on point and so is the gleam of the swoosh.

This year has been great for AM1's even with all the pinnacles I slept on.

When and where did that emerald jewel release? Need please!

 

[joechrome]

Not mine

 

[redblack35]

Just an indication... in europe, nike gave early access for the red, nothing for the blue...

 

[joechrome]

Not mine

They came out last Saturday, Oct 21st but some American retailers had them early. Haven't seen them on UK NDC.

I bought them too early though
Offspring have them with a 20% off code if you're looking to buy from the UK.

Really close to what I mocked up.
