THE OFFICIAL AIR MAX 1 THREAD

I guess they changed the ID option to synthetic leather to clear up any confusion.
 
Yea, no way the materials they use now can match up to when they were doing Air Max IDS back in 06. It sucks that the started using cheap boxes too.

But I'm still happy with my supreme Am1s.
 
thats what I'm saying tho..  we cant compare these to the older ones...those days are never coming back we all know that.

IMO the shape is good and theyre seemingly cleanly made ( no glue stains ) look at that dudes urawas up there... theyre clean

even if Nike swapped "suede" for pool table felt!

so what are people complaining about :lol

Because none of those are suede. If you label something as suede, it should actually be animal hide and not something synthetic. I don't have an issue with them using the material, but label it as such so that people can decide if they want to spend money on it before having their money tied up for a month.
 
Welp, after doing 5 IDs, all of which have come with some kind of dirt, the suede is terrible..but the turn around time isn't bad. Here's some shots. Lmk what you gouts think


 
Nice job on the IDs. Out of the five, I like these two the most.
 
What red was used on the ID Urawas? I'm thinking about using the darker red suede for the mudguard and the leather option in the lighter red for the rest, but I don't want the contrast between the two to be too strong.

university red
Thanks for the info. Do you know how university red compares to geranium? In the ID editor it looks kinda pale, but on other shoes that use geranium as color it always looks like a nice red (but could be the pictures, idk)?
 
When I made the Urawas I thought about the geranium for the contrasting reds but it's too pink. So I went with the synthetic quarter panel instead
 
My USA inspired AM1s arrived today. Here are unboxed and on feet shots! Enjoy, I like the way they came out!

I never understood why people wear their tongues this way. Personal opinion of course, but I think it just looks strange.

Depends on the shoes and pants. I tend to not wear them with the tongue like this, it was to show off the whole shoe.

Not trying to knock you or anyone that does this, wear what you like, how you like it, is my motto. Just on a personal level I have seen people wear them like this, especially 90's

I just don't get it. Is it a popular hop hop/Kanye West thing? Or just something some people like to do?

You're not alone, bro.

I dont get it either. Wear shorts if you want to show the tongue. What's worst is in L.A. the Latinos wear the bulkiest Jordan Brand Flights, saggin levis and tongues popped. 

Thats why I mess with Stalley. One of the few rappers who refuse to pop tongues.
