Dope! Go for it! Of those designs, that one would be the most likely to be purchased. I would’ve ordered without hesitation if they had a Charcoal Swoosh!

My Aquas came in from END last week. love em. Saw the Anniversaries for under retail at a mom n pop spot in NYC. last pr in my sz (13). Couldn't pass em up.

i'm happy, i come from my parents house, just pull the trigger on two great pair that are a part of the air max history... and a part of my history with air max... used, bad condition, yes, but pics coming soon (i also will compare them to the 2020 release (same size i'm an old boy lol)

yeahhh the style code... it is the 2000 version of the 304948 161 called "silver surfer" ( https://www.depop.com/products/ohlucci-rare-y2k-2000-nike/ )

i also pull the trigger on the legendary 1999 air max bw of the end of the last century (and for the new millenium) with her gym sac... style code 104127 002 (one of the best bw i'have ever worn between 1995 and 2000, with the amazing 1996 or 97 brown nubuck bw pair with blue swoosh)

these two pairs are QS if my memories are good, behind the tongue of the 90 theres is write QS2, and the bw is clearly a limited edition... only find 4 pics on the internet... lol

-> AIRMAXDISCIPLE you know these two pair? the 90 i think yes you are an encyclopedia lol but the bw you know?

QS2 is a factory code/name and does not stand for QuickStrike and btw are US7 not a lil bit too small for you ?? and also i cant remember the BWs, at the time when that cw came out i was all about the AM95s and what the hell are 2020 silver surfers lol, ive never heard from them before

 

[FrenchSneakerAdd]

no lol the link is only to show the model, my pair is 8us like my others pairs it's not my pair on the link

of course i will compare the old silver surfers to the new 2020 royal for shape comparison (perhaps it's my bad english so sorry if it's not clear, but yes like you said there is no 2020 version of the silver surfers)

 

[rickrock]

heel patch kills it for me

 

[mikey23]

Need purps to drop already!

 

[rickrock]

today

 

[FrenchSneakerAdd]

so here is the pair I just mentioned... 304948 161 (called "silver surfer")

sorry they are dirty... after a good upper cleaning they could look cool (in any case better lol), honestly the leather is really not bad for 20 years old

Spoiler: for the comparison

comparison with 2020 royal

comparison with the air max 90 537384-160 from 2015 (Reshaped!)

IRL except for the mudguards height they look closer to the 2020, they are less bulkier than the 2015 and like the 2020 they are lower at the ankle, so it is just my two cents

ps: the BW i will post on the BW thread

Was going for the Mag look, but I see the Calypso resemblance lol

 

[rc103dc]

Sorry, I haven't caught up on the thread. Are Infrareds supposed to drop at some point? Thanks

 

[KnowTheLedge]

That’s what I thought too. Just missing the speckles, but I think they look a little cleaner with out them.

[rc103dc]

I guess that's a yes? I'll do some googling.

 

[illustrayt]

What the 90?! NBY via IG


The toe shape looks better on these NBYs.

My iteration: These might be one of the three or four designs that I’ll order now lol

 

[Van Nostrand]

I guess that's a yes? I'll do some googling.

Lol it's a 'no' actually. Your same question gets posted in here at least once a week and causes a reaction amongst people.

No info on infrareds yet. I'm sure it'll be blasted out to the world when any news comes up.

 

[crumps brother]

haven't seen any make ups done w/ the new NBY options I would consider buying if released

and these quasi infrared colorblocking ones are among the best posted so far

This might be my favorite CW this year plus the swoosh is 3M. Wow.

 

[Leebro]

If I do order any of the new pairs they have to have some element of laser crimson as it seems you can't change this out on the tongue tag whatever colour combination you go with.

My new shape IDs came in today after five weeks. I was told by a nike employee on the phone that the delay is related to the Coronavirus. I also realised I made a similar pair before.
