The Official Nike Air Max 90 Thread

[Red Run]

These have grown on me a lot! I would cop this version over the OGs if I had to choose only one between the two.

Not me man. Maybe it’s the crazy saturation everywhere I look, but I’m a lot less into em now than when I copped

Complete impulse buy lol

quality is nice. They are what they are

would look dope with Black mesh

So far with these OG-esque colour blocking:

1) Infrared
2)Turqs
3)Purps
4)Orange
5)Neon
6)Pinks
7)Lime
8 )Royals

I think I'd have to go

1. Infrared
2. Orange
3. Purp
4. Royal
5. Turq
6. Neon
7. Lime
8. Pink

Still need them damn purps to drop in the US.

Got Oranges in today and I was considering letting them go if they were too close to Infrared but pics show they are not and in hand certainly nailed that coffin! They're honestly pretty damn nice annnnd they match my Alma Matar colors so they're looking like keepers.

I really really hate the box though.. do you know how annoying it is to have all the 90 anniversary boxes stacked up and then.... this VCR? Who is making these decisions?? smh

Unfortunately I think that boat has sales with the purps. If Nike.ca does another sale I think I’ll be grabbing a few for the NT US guys lol

**** !!! oranges say delivered but no notification that I got a package from leasing office. Praying the fedex guy didn't run off on the plug

I grabbed a pair of Purps off of SNS this morning. Just my luck, they restocked the 11.5

I’ll be honest. I was NOT feeling the profile of the recrafted AM90 shape/design initially, ESP the thin mudguards. After copping three pairs, I actually like the sleeker profile over the previous version even with the thinner mudguards.

It’s like the opposite of the AM1 during its transition to the recrafted in 2017. It went from thin mudguards and cliff toes to well rounded and balanced. For the 90s, it went from clunky to sleek. Both of the newer iterations look better to me. Well done, Nike!

Which Air Max 90 retro (which year) has the cloest shape to the OGs?

 

[Red Run]

2020 I suppose

I actually prefer the previous mold of the 90s. But look at me now 6 pairs in with the reshape model.

The reverse duck camos been dripping their price lately.

Probably 2020 I'd imagine

Got the lime colorway in. Some more views and on feet in the vid:

Went down a wormhole on your reviews the other day man, great stuff and totally appreciate what you do.

Though I'm starting to feel tapped out on Particles.. a Yellow version would be

Tour Yellow and Laser Blue.

 

[tonytobacco]

I wouldnt mind an olive/army green/clay/whatever

 

[nostalgia94]

The answer to the Bacons, if the original designer doesnt know about them re-releasing then probably a sick rumor

Not necessarily, Nike owns the design, they can release or not without even consulting the OG designer. Pretty sure Hirofumi Kojima, had nothing to do with the reverse duck camo release.

They'd almost certainly give him a heads up.

Need yellow. Baby blue. Burgundy. Og red. Silver. White. Peach.

Delayed Ducks-
These things took so long to get here that I’m sick of Duck now...

Went with Black w/Infra tips

Where did you get the infra tip laces? I bought a bunch of white ones at one point but I'm out.

 

[dblplay1212]

Orange and Apples came in today. Disappointed in the box but love the shoes.

 

[us3less]

^ "Apples and Oranges..." I like that, haha.

 

[dblplay1212]

No filter.
