THE OFFICIAL AIR MAX 1 THREAD

[aksuited]

 
i think the upcoming halloween 95s will be more difficult to get tho

since the shoe have some gimmicks like the eyeball tongue logo and possibly GITD parts

Yeah i feel you on that. Not a terrible looking sneaker in my opinion either. Not my cup of tea, but still nice for those that like it. Is it really that rare for air max 1s and 90s to sell out instantly? Im getting the feeling that almost every release is readily attainable, whereas Jordans, which are what I mostly cop, are damn near impossible...even the foo foo colorways.

it depends on how limited it is and if it is a collab

the last fast selling AM90 was the bleached denims and for the AM1 was the Clots i think

for the rest are the other releases very easy to obtain for AMs

So I take it the wheats aren't limited? IDK I'm seeing QS being thrown around a lot with this colorway. Isn't QS more limited than "limited"? What's weird is I can't find those black/ash grey/total crimson joints anywhere in my local malls. Just FNL.com, yet they are super duper GR.

Do you think the wheats will hit stores? Or just online? Either way I'll be glad to cop them with ease. I know a lot of people think they are ugly as hell. But I like em. So imma cop.

Edit: Just spent about 30 mins trying to figure out where these will be available stateside, either in store or online, and i CAME UP EMPTY. Air max disciple help me out please! I'll even paypal you 5 bucks for your time.

even when a shoe is labeled as QS doesnt mean that they will instantly sell out

the shoe it self need to attracts some certain hype before it will turn into a selling hit

and if the am1 will hit the stores depends on in what kind of area you're living in

if you are living in a deserted hill billy ville where peeps only wear cowboy boots the chances are very slim

that you will find them in the stores but if you are in a more urban area like NYC you will deff find them instores

I'm in L.A. This QS business has me worried now. I'm seeing one or two ebay sellers trying to get 180 for em.

 

[shottadru]

Pairs on eBay now. Retail + $50. I am going to try my luck this weekend. I am too old to waste money on greedy resellers and I'm not in school to be #teamearly anymore lol

this one guy selling 'booki2012' 0 feedback

 

[retrothief]

i hope the wheats (both AM1 and AF1) are not as ugly as they look in most of the pics on ebay. kinda disappointed

 

[shottadru]

Check NDC pics. they sexy. Somehow mad noobs got FSR's, low to little feedback so their pic game is not good. Some of the pics look like they are worn already lol.

 

[pelimpe]

Hope they look better in person 2.... That midsole though.....

Wouldn't be surprised if they are made in China.

 

[njavier03]

the wheats are meh. will cop if they are easily attainable later on release day. theyd be nice for fall, but im not in love with them. i dont understand the hate for the midsole though

 

[njavier03]

anyone thinking of going a half size up for the wheats? the padding in the NDC pics looks pretty thick.

 

[sahchiog]

these don't look near as bad as the other air max 1 highs

 

[shottadru]

Packer Shoes is taking email orders on the Halloween pack but the Flax kicks are in store only. The hype is real.

 

[chato]

I don't know. These are like the air trainer 1s and the tech challenge 2s. Unless it's an og and well known cw, it isn't too hard to get with the exception of collabs or special releases (pro bowl at 1s and grand slam atcIIs).
These don't have that feel to them, even if they are coming as part of a 'pack'
They don't have the extra nifty details like boot laces and metal lace holes that might bring more people into the hunt for these.
As always, never pay reseller prices. It's never worth it.

How do AM 1s run in comparison to AM 90s?

How do AM 1s run in comparison to AM 90s?

Pretty close. But older AM1s run a little bit bigger.

AM1 is much more comfortable in my opinion, it's lighter and more flexible. The AM90 provides good ankle support but is a lot bulkier in comparison and is pretty narrow at the front.. I go TTS on both.

Them women am11 up there are tight!
N for those still wondering the Halloween95 do not glow...
