The Official Nike Air Max 90 Thread

[jordans01]

Having the LBs in hand makes me really want a re-craft persian BW.

That would be a dream come true for sure!

 

[ta2and0]

I'm a fan of these.

I'm on the same boat with ya. I regret that I didn't copp more than 1 pair of blue one cos I know this will be worn heavily throughout the summer for sure.

Maybe next month since it took like 6 months for those Hyper Oranges to be available in EU now after releasing in Asia while back. BTW, Blue one is gone now in JP while Sail one is still 30% off at ¥9.999 (which is approx. $95) on almost FSR.

I actually put the blue one in my cart promptly after that further 20-30% off sale had started, didn’t order at that time coz I couldn’t decide what other 2 items to order right away. A day or 2 later, became aware that only the Blue Corks weren’t listed anymore, but the one I put it in my cart was still there. So, I was like “Why don’t I just try w/ Sail & Chloro? If they tell me that the blue is gone, I’ll just cancel the whole order....” I guess I did the right thing.

What Hyper Oranges you‘re talking? Thx

Thx, was hoping for some orange recrafts tho.

Maybe it’s just ME or maybe it’s just been THAT LONG since I’ve purchased 90’s but the QC on mine are less than satisfactory.... Lasers Vs Recraft Orange

Lasers Vs Recraft Orange

the LBs look like if they are 2 sizes bigger than the orange cw
you should stack both insoles on each other to check the size difference imo

 

[rickross]

LB is clearly using a different sole than we have seen before. Hard to believe the sizing isn’t checked before production runs begin.

 

[illustrayt]

Damn. Made in Indonesia (AM90s) vs. Made in Vietnam (AM3s). The Infrared/Radiant Red cw will make me jump through hoops to cherry pick a pair. I thought they had the QC in check with latest AM90s... I guess not (word to Ja Rule )

 

[2fnquik]

Yeah, after these I’m NOT buying another recraft, hopefully they IR/RR is made in Vietnam....I’ll try them on later and see if there is a size/fit difference..

How’s siZing. Do your Laser Blue and Orange Recradt fit the same....?

Ok this is weird. I know they’re made in different factories but is the sizing that off to all the recrafts? Those look a full size different....WTH. Someone stack both insoles to check insole sizing.

making me rethink my usual size 11

i personally think they put the wrong sizetag in the LBs, some of the anniversary AM1 OG blue pairs had the same problem like this

I’m confused. What are going to be cherry picking for?

for the best quality pair

 

[hitman243]

received my 2nd pair of the total oranges. these 90's all look great in pictures, but I am somewhat underwhelmed in hand with the quality. just poor QC with the paint and glue stains. I hope they do the OG's a little better.

I mean..do they feel noticeably big or different on feet? I’m struggling to find a problem with your pair. Where’s the bad QC? They’re made in two different factories. Nothing new. Bound to be some differences. That’s still a size 10.5.

 

[illustrayt]

A decent/correctly sized Infrared/RR pair. Unless, the *new sizing is just an anomaly.

 

[APLUS]

I was thinking the same thing. These size discrepancies appear to be too far off. They look to be a full size off from the earlier recraft colorways.

 

[lamekilla]

The LB’s honestly seem like they’re using more material to craft the same size shoe so it’s giving it a puffier and more plush look which makes them look bigger. The larger sole however is the jarring part. Ironically the LB’s being labeled Air Max 3 as opposed to 90 is if Nike intended to give it more of an original pillow look to go with its original name

 

[illustrayt]

I was thinking that the leather could be a factor, but the sizing difference does look dramatic.

 

[dhtowng]

It’s the leather guys. And the fact that they’re made better in a better factory so there’s gonna be slight differences in build. Probably for the better. I’m not gonna jump the gun and start altering my own standard sizing on these because of a couple of side by side photos. I have shoes of the same size that look slightly different build/length wise all the time. Nothing new. Still getting my size. OPs pair looks fine. He should enjoy them.

My personal rule for any runner/trainer is .5 size down
