THE OFFICIAL AIR MAX 1 THREAD

At what point do y'all decide it's time to throw a shoe away? Debating throwing out a warn out pair

usually it has to lose integrity somewhere... either the upper is getting worn or the sole has lost tread. some shoes just flat out become uncomfortable. like the cushioning is beat.

I'm just hoping for no issues getting size 13. Was never able to hit on any of the previous Patta releases from 2022 and refused to pay resale prices.

 

[retro fiend]

I still can’t believe we’re getting a 1:1 retro. I thought for sure nike was gonna fumble it.

 

[aceofjays]

I hope there’s enough to go around - that’s the only way Nike can fumble now

 

[Fozz]

Nike better not play with that release. I just want one size 12. That's not too hard to ask. Let us cook!

 

[airmaxninefive]

want a size 14 for these chlorophyll one time!

 

[IATT]

Is there a release date yet?

 

[kingsin]

(Hot take) no need to worry about availability 'cause chlorophylls gonna flop like the Hufs

dblplay1212 has been feeding us info months before it was even being discussed so maybe he can shed some light for us when it gets closer to release.

"Enough to go around" is all I was told on that

that upcoming retro will not be 1:1
the size from the tongue of the upcoming retro will be different

It's very close. Iirc the og is 7" wide, retro may be a tad less wide but overall it's a very very good retro. No retro will be perfect but I don't think anyone can complain about these.

Copped the Piano's but then ended up selling them lol

Yesterday olympics were $105, decided to hold off.

Decided to check this morning and they're down to $82.50. Couldn't pass that up. Ended up being $99 shipped.

Is it still active? Still retail in my cart.

 

[hitman243]

So good

are they planning to upcharge for these as well?

The OGs are a legendary pair that go for a lot today, my only fear is that resellers will try to cash in on that and try to ride that value. Hopefully they flop hard.

 

[migu420]

They'll look at stock x prices and think it's gonna set the market, lol. Not enough business acumen out there in resell land.

 

[plansb]

Hopefully they are like linens (or easier).

If it was a Patta only drop then that would be an issue…Since it seems like they’ll be dropping elsewhere I don’t expect them to go crazy…OG Huf’s weren’t exactly cheap on the aftermarket either and two of the colorways were about as rare as it gets by being literal samples…

plansb The Linen AF1’s are a very good comparison…Never thought I’d be able to get those for retail when they were announced…Now I’m kicking myself for not putting out some lowball offers on the resell apps to try and pull them at a discount …The OG’s for both pairs are unobtainable on the aftermarket because of the absurd asking prices…Very apt comparison…

People really are moving off Nike’s jock like crazy…Good for those of us who are actually here for the shoes…
