THE OFFICIAL AIR MAX 1 THREAD

Air Escape ACG. Not really crazy about these. I think it was a good concept on paper but just didn't turn out how I was hoping. I'll stare at em for awhile, maybe they'll grow on me but these are probably going back. Sesame, ultramarine and light jade. All nubuck.

I like the concept of them!
 
I'd read some people using pillow cases instead of a mesh bag; anyone compare both methods?
I think I picked up the mesh bags for 5 bucks or something, it was a 3 pack for all sizes of delicates. But I'd imagine the pillow case being fine? Probably get less soap in the shoe with the pillowcase catching more of it id imagine. It was these.

cool concept brother, I like them...
 
Nike beating my legs out over here. Said IDs set to arrive today, but when I look at tracking it still shows them in Vietnam. Wtffffff
 
The red big bubbles were a must buy, its the Airmax 1 in it’s truest and most original form… But I’m not sure how I feel about the obsidian big bubbles. I think that color way looks better on the 87 version or maybe I just need to see more photos. The Royals on the other hand is a shoe that I need.
 
First NBY order touched down

safe to say, I'm about to go in 🔥 ... love the purple pair and the banduloo zens nets, but not really in love with the leather quality on the fugazi travs. Might reorder with a red air bag or just scrap it totally and return

QC is kinda buns, but nubuck quality is banging... alot of nicks in the leather and lil glue stains on my pairs are giving me typical Jordan brand release vibes

And heres my 2 cents on sizing - I ordered these in size 12 and they fit comparable to my concepts/kasina pairs that are 11.5... could I have went down .5 in the NBYs? maybe...but I tried them on with no socks and it was a perfect fit, imo I wouldnt risk it
Swoosh Looks mocha, but I'm guessing olive. Crazy how brown that looks, would've went crazy if they had a mocha Nubuck.

I dig these. The sesame looks goldish to me. I wish they had a light tan color. I thought light tan would be bone but bone and iron both have looked grey

it's the camera/lighting...I tried a bunch of times to capture the true color but it kept showing a brownish hue. The olive comes through a lil better in person

mocha/brown/tan/burgundy wouldve been great... the pendleton options from a few years back are a testament to that
