The Official Nike Air Max 90 Thread

[davinelulinvega]

the "girly vibes"? man them 2021s are way cleaner looking imo. don't know if it has to do with the age between the shoes but the colors of the 2021 just pop a lot more which makes em look way better than the 2008s. those 2008s look so dull in comparison

I kind of like some dull colors due to the effect of time, I can also like to watch flashy colors but I can only wear dark or dull colors, not a big fan of everything making you too visible, don't like to be the center of attention, plus like old leather, dull colors got a charm

Edit : a scene I love to illustrate my way of thinking :

2021 VS 2008

I mean, LOOK at that difference in shape and proportions. Holy **** it’s a joke what they had done to these and loads of other models over the years. Yikes. The OG shape makes these AMIIIs a must have (whichever colorway you prefer). The “modern” shape makes them shoes I won’t buy on clearance at an outlet. Crazy.

Correct, but over the last few years a lot of models have been restored close to their OG form. AM1, AM Light, Huarache 91 to name a few. I'm glad to see these old brick toe pairs disappear. I held on to my Infrareds from 2015, will probably sell them now I have the AM3, cant stand to look at them.

I'm looking at the og + video and trying to work out how Nike deliberately f'd these up, but they actually look on point

FNL got an 11.5 rn and other sizes I just copped

NIKE Designer: Whew! I’m so glad we poured the time and money into restoring the Air Max 90! 2020 was a great year and the sales of the AM90 show we’re on the right track.

NIKE Exec: Right?! I think what we should do now is retros of the most popular collaborations from the early 2000s.

NIKE Designer: All we’ll need to do is update the shape and we’re printing money!

NIKE Exec: EXACTLY!!! We’ll update the shape we’re doing now to what we did the year the collab released and...

NIKE Designer:

I was late, but I was still able to grab an 11.5. No confirmation though, so not out of the woods just yet.

Edit:

Just got confirmation.

For anyone in the EU who hasn't managed to get a pair of infrared/radient reds yet (three was enough for me) sneakersnstuff have almost a full size run.
