The Official Nike Air Max 90 Thread

[modus47]

It's kinda sad that a never released before retro of 1 of the most iconic OG 90s gets less love/likes than those Hippie 90s. Which are not too bad themselves but obviously nowhere near the same league as Eggplants. As in light years apart.

Spoiler

But then again, I ain't really surprised.

the pinks and royals were my least favorite of the pack originally.. now the pink pair is one of my favorites. Perfect summer colorway.

Been dragging my feet on picking up the Pinks, your pictures just pushed me over the edge. Just picked up a pair on Jimmy Jazz for $89.95 (plus tax and shipping; not the greatest of deals but good enough).

I think the OG colorways mean more to us older heads who were actually around when they originally released.

I know NT has plenty of older heads, but the majority of cats into sneakers these days (and in general) are younger. A lot of OG colorways were more simple. Kids like flashy & loud. There's no nostalgia with the youngins.

New pick up, one of those purchases where they just pop up and can't turn it down.

 

[purple sneaks]

I’m ready for 2 pairs

need another retro of the Spruce and need Corals too

Love the OGs but I'm a size 14 so unless they're extended sizing (see: ALL sizes), Women's CWs are pointless.

A lot of men's CWs are unavailable to me, it sucks.

I’m not pressed for either. The space hippies are too plain for me. The others aren’t my style and I’d only be getting them for nostalgia’s sake. I’d never wear them.

I’m a size 13. I feel the same.

you can replicate some wmns OG cws with the NBY iD options, you're not able to design a 1 on 1 replica but you can come pretty damn close with these options imo

I was reading a few of the comments, will the laser blue only be released in women’s sizes?

 

[tigo0240]

No. It's a men's release.

 

[AIRMAXDISCIPLE]

the LB pair from the IG pic are wmns shoes but i doubt that nike will only release them for the females, you guys have never heard of unisex before ?? you always have peeps in here stressing and panicking while the damn shoes not even have been released yet same ish different release

I don't know, I'm young and eggplants & co are my dope. Depends on what your tastes attract you to. I got to admit I'm weird tho, being nostalgic of the early 90's while i wasn't even a blueprint yet at the time.

Indeed. I was speaking generally. Of course there's outliers such as yourself.

 

[AIRMAXDISCIPLE]

[ZwenchNenchOnTheBrench]

Thanks Nike for letting the poor and defenseless catch up on the Maharishis.

 

[AIRMAXDISCIPLE]
