THE OFFICIAL AIR MAX 1 THREAD

[DecepticonRumble]

Damn. Those look good at first glance too. Scary.

Yeah like I said I was set as long as the pics matched my anniversary pairs. Replicas get closer all the time to the OG.

Restock alert on Nike!!

My favorite AM1 of the year. Can’t believe these are sitting.

Do you wear yours? I can’t buy anything I won’t wear. No matter how cool the concept is.

 

[KnowTheLedge]

Same... I’m not going to buy it unless I wear it. Maybe once in a while I’ll cop just to resell for quick cash. If I even get lucky these days. I don’t go out of my way doing that extra **** with bots etc. Y’all are on another level

No bots here either. I just try my luck on SNKRS or constantly search for decent prices on resell sites. Sad part is a lot of resellers who use bots don’t even know about the shoes they flip. Wore my Susans to Sneaker Con and the kid I bought my Royals off of had to ask me what I was wearing. He even called them 90s.

Damn, makes me wonder about the pairs I’ve bought from resellers...

Got me paranoid. Legit check please... another opinion would be great. I appreciate it

 

[snkrb0y]

Yours look legit to me.

Look at the inside swoosh as well. On reps the end of the tick doesnt go far enough back also.

Thanks for the reply! Inside.. like the inside of the shoes where the swoosh is placed?

 

[cumma]

Legit

I hope it stays that way really. We don’t need attention to am1 in my opinion

Speaking of replicas, these are IDs that came in today. I think my intentions were clear. I just couldn’t spend 2x retail on the real thing. They’re not as good but they ain’t bad imo

I rock with them. Only difference I would've done Is made the outsole black and the eyelets royal blue.

I tried the black midsole and it didn’t look right to me, but really, neither does the wolf grey. Thems the options though unfortunately. And yeah I don’t know how I missed the eyelets. I realized it as soon as I opened the box.

Id be happy for half too

Definitely agree. That lack of attention is why I snagged my AM1 Huaraches for retail on goat before hand.

 

[tarheelz07]

Got my IDs in! Very happy with how they came out minus the sloppy cut of the leather mudguard on the right shoe, but it’s whatever.

Excuse the metal chairs in the background, we just hosted a Friendsgiving haha.

 

[dinos]

run a naked flame across the edge will tidy the fraying up

legit

 

[tarheelz07]

thanks for the tip, but I don’t think I trust myself doing that without ruining the shoe. I’m just going to try and ignore it. The last pair of IDs I got had a bunch of white glue on an all black midsole, so this is better than that at least.

 

[antoekneeo]

It'd be nice if Nike added more colors for the suede option since the leather is so bad for the IDs. It seems like it's been the same color options for over a year.

 

[KnowTheLedge]

Those ID’s look dope man. Congrats
