The Official Nike Air Max 90 Thread

I don’t know about these. Something I just don’t like about them but can’t exactly put my finger on as to why. Keepers for now. May change my mind.

I have been debating these, but I agree with you 100% - something seems off and I can't figure it out.

Maybe I'm stuck on the recraft standards, but could it be the tip of the toebox squaring off instead of rounding off and the height of the mudguard towards the toebox?

.... or I might've given you guys an extra reason to not like them anymore. Oops. :lol:

if it was mesh instead of canvas it'd be better
 
Do you guys think the price of Bacons will plateau now? I’m trying to figure out should I pick up the Bacons or Infrareds first?
I’m assuming the Bacons, since I’m seeing the infrareds for around $180 right now.


You would think infared production was much higher than bacons. Infas get rereleased every now and then but bacons are on a 15+ year schedule. Would do bacons although new recraft shape is more comfy.

Thoughts?

I'd pick up bacons since they are more limited. Infrared gets retro'd a ton. They went on sale locally but I had already doubled up. You will be able to find infras for around retail later on when you want to come back to them.

Retail?? Idk man. Resellers hoarding everything nowadays

Love the colorway and suede mudguard but not a fan of the toe box material and tongue.

Bigger sizes @ $93.97
Thank GOD.
Here I was popping in dropping the FNL link where the only size in stock was a 3.5mens so I was salty, then I see this post.
Got the $5 overnight shipping which I’m happier about than the Shoe being under $100

Got a deal on a pair of Bacons in my size at 210.

Before I pull the trigger, how bad are these QC issues (pen marks, bad paint job, etc) though?
 
Bought my pair of bacons off of eBay and I was a little alarmed at how different the leather is from right to left shoe. Anyone else’s pairs look like this?
