THE OFFICIAL AIR MAX 1 THREAD

I dont know what to believe... but tongue tag is changing with BASE color??

so that ID must be blue void?
because royal makes text black

is the lacelet univ red?

Another Nike By You (not mine)

Looks pretty nice, but uhm the Tongue and toebox is Game Royal right?

Good thing a lot of us know how to use an iron and a towel from the atrocities prior to the anniversary.

 

[boomroasted]

Despite the shape garbage, I may have to order a pair of the super duper poor mans cords.

the base looks to be blue void....the entire upper is blue void, right?

Yes the upper is Blue Void. Indeed looks like the base is Blue void aswell, probably just the lightning on the photo that it looks lighter.

 

[rickross]

No way it’s all blue void. The mesh is definitely royal. I bet the rendering color text is incorrect.

probably right....this def looks better

 

[rwfanatic]

Cant be that when blue void gives you white text on the tongue.

 

[SUPER BLACK]

Does no one think the toe box can be reshaped with a little tlc?

The biggest issue is that there's barely any material of the tip between the front edge of the outsole and vamp. You can increase the radius of the entire front to eliminate the sense of "cliff" per say, but it's still going to look wack because the way the material is cut. See attached pics of new IDs toes. Make sense?

Good catch!?

someone should contact Nike. Despite the toe box debacle, if we can edit the logo, I’ll make some pairs

Yea. Just wanting someone else to try reshaping before I do lol

Flagless USA’s came in. These would be going back if it weren’t for the 25% promo I had. Oh well

 

[kingscrossing]

Ids came in. Took a couple comparison pics

Spoiler: comparison

 

[doug3fresh]

STEEL TOES!

 

[dblplay1212]

The worst part is we'll have these options for a solid 2 years.

 

[jp7891]

Pissed that the four pairs I ordered won’t come with the good shape but they do look like they’ll look fine after ironing out.

 

[Doom.]

So disappointing.

 

[Ube]

What’s the ironing technique I’ve seen everyone talk about on here and how do you do it?

Stuff the toe box, wet a rag and place over the toebox, iron the toe so that the material curves into the desired shape.

One warning for anyone attempting this. Be very careful of the type of wet rag you use. I tried this on a sneaker that had suede and the green cloth completely bled into the suede. The shoe was ruined and I was out $100.

 

[jp7891]

^ Reason why I always use a plain white cotton tee.

 

[teamdime10111]

do the colors from the 'suede' bleed when you do the steam trick?
