The Official Nike Air Max 90 Thread

Happy AMD! Glad to be able to get these for retail, but QC is horrible! Opened the box and found all sorts of flaws - repainted paint chip and pen marks all over the place. But it doesn’t really matter honestly, I’m wearing these to the ground anyways.

 

[BennyIll22]

So why exactly are there pen marks all over them? Sorry if I missed the explanation lol. That’s crazy.

I can deal with those little blue marking spots but that heal paint is a crime! How that get past QC??

 

[dblplay1212]

lol at that all of these pen marks. That's wild.

 

[hippohead]

Some flaws on this pair.

You guys might have to stick to Ebay purchases for these to make sure you see the finished product first!

 

[sneakaprince]

Those pen marks are crazy

 

[AIRMAXDISCIPLE]

the indonesian factory workers dicided to said fk it to quality control it, because the shoes are not halal anyway

This is comical and

Anyone in here from DMV and went to Majors? They did FCFS...

I’m in the DMV, if I knew they would have them I would’ve at least tried.

the place i got my pair at said their whole shipment had pen marks on them.. certain sizes had more pen marks than others..

 

[quad]

All these bad QC Bacons will end up at StockX ....I gotta stop buying there ...folks keep the good pairs and send the flaws there for people like me that missed out.

got my pair... had to drive a little over an hour each way to get them in NY and pay tolls but just happy to have them...definitely wearing them for easter... I'm glad I got out of work early cuz we lost power so that helped the commute too lol

where?

 

[rapcoz2134]

bros wtf is up with the pen though?? is it from the fabric cuts not getting assembled properly to cover them or they just had a child bored on the boat from wherever these were manufactured to the US?

 

[NCtwin]

Really wanted these to be my first pair of 90s, but I guess it wasn't meant to be.

 

[likeaboss2]

put on my fav pair today

 

[starfox070]

I wonder what determines if you get the special laces.

 

[Seds]

Those QC issues are worrying, will see what mine are like when the get here on Monday. Prices have definitely tanked here in Australia. People asking for sales close to retail. If I can pick up a second pair close to retail I might bite.

Where abouts in Australia can these be purchased, Ebay ?

 

[Case]

17yrs ago I traveled from OH to NYC to get a pair that Dave sold to me..This time I only had to drive down to Cincy to get my pair today..This has been, and always will be, the greatest AM collab ever..Happy Air Max Day!..

 

[dLebowski]

you're literally the only person I know that gets multiple exclusive access to Premier lol, I have a few friends who are Gold VIP and Platinum VIP and they don't ever get exclusive access

Honestly I was worried my mojo was gone because I missed on the recent Orange Labels. But I spend a ton there, including on lots of AM’s.

Do the folks in this thread frequent Premier? Was wondering if I was lucky because they are slept on for AM’s.

It's part of the sneaker making process. Marking the places to put the other layers.

However!!!....they're supposed to be under the layers and/or wiped off before finalizing.

Pulled up but too late. Was packed.
