OFFICIAL AIR FORCE ONE THREAD!!!!!

[whenirockthebeat]

Got a few hundred saved for an ID... I think I'm gonna wait and do a Bespoke at 21 Mercer.

ID is just what's available... a Bespoke is whatever you can think of right???

I have so many ideas... I just wanna make the illest Air Force ever.

This $ is burning a hole in my pocket... PATIENCE I guess...

PATIENCE.

Nah man

These aren't worth the $190 - $200. 

not worth it to you, maybe.  however, the materials are definitely nicer than any af1's nike has put out in the last 5+ years (i'm being generous) - and there's a chance to design colorways and use materials that we may never get to design/use again.  therefore, it is well worth it to a lot of people.  i'm very happy to have spent the $205 and to have gotten the finished product that i received.  i've always been purely a vintage guy - but i'm looking forward to seeing what materials nike announces for the af1 ID's in the coming months.

Sure bout that?  The elephant print iD option is nice but its nowhere near premium material.  The $100+ up-charge is just giving you the option to place the colors where you want. VERY nice feature, but better quality? Negative. Same cheap leather you find on the $88 pairs on the shelves at every store across the country. I hate to compare them to Bespokes but on my Bespoke pair the toe box shape, weight, and even down to the laces look and feel different. For that price, quality is not up to my expectations (and I have 2 pairs of AF1 iD).

I put together a video for pretty well known lifestyle blogger (Marcus Troy) during one of his ID sessions. Not sure how to embed so here is the link -

I'm planning on doing a bespoke also.

i can't really speak to the quality of the leather... i only have 1 pair of ID's in my possession, and it only has leather on the swoosh and eyestay - not enough to judge the quality, in my opinion.  however, i can attest to the quality of the nubuck, which is very nice.  i guess i haven't picked up a premium af1 in a long time, probably because they've all been ugly as sin (both shape and colorways) - so i'll take your word for it.  i guess my main point is that i'm perfectly satisfied with the quality of my ID's, and if i'm making ID's, i'm probably choosing nubuck over leather just about every time, unless there's a color of leather that i absolutely need to have.  i have 2 pairs coming this month - only leather, again, is on the swoosh - the rest elephant print, so i still won't be able to judge the quality.

the tennis ball material is fuzzy, almost like a felt feeling. VERY short in length. much like how a tennis ball feels fuzzy, but the material on the shoes is much shorter in the "cut" they used.

I saw the White/3M and Denim at House of Hoops yesterday. They look nice in person but I didn't cop. I like the denim better. I almost copped those but I didn't.

 

[gueser]

Saw some ID's in another thread and the Cement/Elephant Print look good!!!

 

[moneylicious]

how long did it take you guys to get the cement ID AFIs? From the day you ordered to actually receiving them?

Haha, if you waited until the next day to order (like I did) then you'd still be waiting (like I am).

You guys are still waiting on the Feb pair?

 

[moneylicious]

^^Nah..i missed the initial drop. When I found out bout it, cement option was gone.

Fast forward to this past weekend...was at NTLV, saw they were back on so i pulled the trigger on the supreme IDs and some kd IVs

On the February release, I hammered my first pair out within the first hour, and I got it in about 1.5 weeks.
 
Did my second pair about 3 - 4 hours after that, got it the following Monday.
 
 
 
I still think the way you pay has something to do with how soon/late your pair gets shipped out.

[beats05]

On the way...my Supreme mashup, combining both lows and the gold tab from the highs.

 

[nycposite]

Nice ids. These are suppose to drop sometime this year. 30th anniversary foamposite x jewel. Looks like a foamposite pro af1

 

[160jordansdeep]

^ i was hoping for a royal high af 1 foam not this crap

this....the foamposite x AF really only works as a high.....maybe could work as a mid if they altered the mold 

 

[mrniketalk]

^maybe the NTers who live in NYC that never get G$$$$ releases can finally come up from some 30th anniversary forces

EDIT: on 2nd thought, when has an Air Force One hit G$$$?

 

[highalien]

nice try

tell me those are silver and NOT gold 

 

[mints]

If I were to peg the color I'd actually call that Zinc, looks like the Flightposite II. Back on the subject of AF1s though, when are those Jewels supposed to be coming out?

 

[hurst274]

Im copping!!!

 

[n miz]

They need to bring back the patent leather holiday 1's. AF1's feel off about 3 years ago
