Was this men's sizing or women's sizing?

The way they had it on the website had me confused.

So if I understand you correctly you missed out on Men’s release today but you’d already ordered a 14.5 in the Women’s prior?

Sidenote: that jinnyjazz link is for Men’s?
If you filter the results to Men you get the Corals, if you filter to Womens there aren’t any corals available

 

[a-friend]

I just double checked jimmyjazz on the web browser and set filters to womens and again, no hot coral.
Set it to Men’s and there they are.
I’ve seen a few posts saying they are Womens and that the 15.5 means for sure Womens.....definitely confused here

How long is it safe to wear an air max 90? 10 years? 5 years? Less?

My collection is pretty big I like the AM1 and AM90 a lot I worry that they aren't like other staples in my collection (AJ1, dunks, even AF1s) and they will go bad if I don't wear them in a certain amount of time.

As long as they not DS In a ziplock bag somewhere and wear them occasionally you should be able to get 10yrs plus depending on how they stored etc

 

[sneakaprince]

Thank u fam for answering that

No problem just try to wear them every once in while. But yeah I think we all know the feeling of being afraid shoes will crumble before we can get to them

good to know I know it has a lot to do with how you store your shoes. How were they stored ?

 

[JSWAM]

Bacons arrived today.

 

[Aquarius Snake]

NBYs finally touched down. Thanks to modzzilla for the assist since these options were scraps by the time they became available in the US.

Not the best day for natural light pics. My only gripe is the liner color.

 

[spidersparrow]

Why did you buy them if you didn't like the shape? I don't understand. It's not like you had a problem with how they feel on feet, the colours used, or the way materials feel.

From a visual standpoint it is very clear that these were different from prior releases so to see them, dislike them as you do and to proceed to buy them anyway is odd.

Nike would never be able to satisfy everyone and there are others I know who feel similar to yourself but I would say are in the minority. The vast majority of collectors here definitely welcome the change myself included.

I can’t speak as to why he would buy them. I enjoyed some of the Recrafts myself. However, I will speak to missing the old design — boxy shape — of the shoe. Wish a) more shoes would have that boxy shape & b) that it would just be reserved for SE shoes (Undefeated/Bacons). The only other complaint I have is boxes. I understand the smaller boxes for retroed/recrafted shoes but I’m not a fan of the smaller boxes especially when they come with newer designs (like the Polkadots). And perhaps not environmentally sustainable, I wish Nike had replacement box options for consumers.

Sorry I meant that I hoped the boxy shape *wouldn’t* just be reserved for SE Air Max IIIs.

 

[spidersparrow]

Absolutely in love with these.
Super salty nothing bigger than a 10.5

Same! Wish they larger sizing so guys could have picked them up. Between these and the Onigiri Air Max IIIs that released a few weeks back, the ladies definitely got the better designed shoe. Wish there was another Exeter edition shoe coming out.

 

[spidersparrow]

Maybe the wrong thread but I'm not sure where else to put it, anyone know where the am90 slides might still be available? Trying to find a size 9, if that makes any difference.

StockX unfortunately. Prices aren’t too bad. Got a second pair for $10 over retail (including fees/shipping).

 

[swaynomics930]
