NYC heads, 21Mercer is dropping the 'Lunar' Sheeds Home and Away tomorrow.
REALLY wish they considered dropping the OG style he wore this season, instead we get these.

Just got my linen IDs in. No complaints about the quality but they fit a full size or size and a half big.

The last time Nike Sportswear dropped an Air Force 1 Low in white leather with a gum sole was 2011, when the summery vibes were cranked up even further with a tablecloth-ish gingham sockliner and another in honor of a streetball legend. This new Nike Air Force 1 Low the extra details for a more pristine look that is essentially the immortal white-on-white plus gum. You’ve got two of the all-time ‘classic’ aesthetics side by side, a surefire summertime hit that could be one of the season’s most desirable general releases, so check back with Sneaker News for release info after you see more shots below.

They really should have flipped those color schemes and done the white/blacks in OG form. Save the hyperfuse stuff for the grey/orange pair.
If they use the same leather on those white/gums as they use for their gr white-on-whites it's an easy pass. Would just be disappointing.

Man I was saying the same thing. And I cant find the OG ANYWHERE! Been searching on and off for a couple years.
And can't really tell from the pics but it looks to be a step above the shiny, synthetic leather on the GR white/whites. I'll cop either way, the leather used will dictate how low they'll have to go on sale before I do tho

If you look closely you can see its that pebbled tumbled whatever you call it GOOD leather, and just when i was going to pick up another pair of stricklands these come out of the blue to save the day, and i know the price will be lovely also. nothing against the Stricks, ill rather the cleaner look with no branding
lol yes indeed agreed trueee

^ Same here. I've been trying to catch a pair of Stricks for a decent price but I can get two pairs of these and be just fine. To be honest, I don't even care about the leather b/c I plan to use and abuse them anyway.

Yeah I notice now that looks like their current version of "tumbled leather" which is definitely better than the shiny pleather. Gotta see in person but if they're on point I'd love to stock up. Then I can wear my stricklands a little more often and not stress. Just saw on sneakernews they're doing black lows w/gun sole also.

While I'm not thrilled with the ID options this time around, I messed around and realized I could make some lowtop independence days. Not enough like the OG especially since the white parts weren't patent leather and no jewel swoosh but I just love the color scheme and that sparkle royal blue. If I finish building my clientele by the end of June this might be my self-reward.

Alot of people are sleeping on em, i guess they dont like the new look on a classic shoe, i think it looks cool but they feel very comfortable

Only thing about the stricks the leather is that buttery soft leather, i guess thats what made em premium. I doubt the new gum bottoms will be that way we will have to see

When nike does a jewel swoosh option with colors you see in a bag of skittles I'll probably make 3 id's. This stuff now is just them not trying.

This is def one of the worst ID months in recent memory...
Do I really need to try lunars? Are they that comfortable?
BIP those canyons are beauties... Do you have the joints from like 04-05 with the gum midsole?
