THE OFFICIAL AIR MAX 1 THREAD

[AIRMAXDISCIPLE]

Any word on the next air max 1 cx colorways

nope not yet, i think that Nike will gonna use the same materials on some other shoes from them

 

[APLUS]

If anyone in the US is looking for the CX, check your local Nike store. Nike Dallas had them when I popped in after work. Easy pass for me.

 

[JPS]

that was me, you have a problem with that ?? that was the only info what came up when i googled the code 3 days ago, but you probably wont know that because you only leeching your info from NT instead to go to google to explore and find some new sneaker releases and such

 

 

[25psi]

Theres always gotta be that one guy. Probably going to keep firm for a few years relisting till someone comes along with an offer close to retail.

Yeah that seller thecoolshoeshine or whatever has listings that sit because his prices are outrageous.

 

[modzzilla]

Him a Kaili or whatever, drive prices up and their shoes sit for years.

Morons.

You planning on doing anything with the lunar bottom and donor upper DonJuanM?

Man, i dont know right now. This sole swapping isnt easy like in the Youtube videos. On the donor the sole is stitched on inside and really doesnt want to budge.

use the acetone technique, thats most easiest way to get rid of the midsole from the upper with a very clean peel

 

[migu420]

Ha! I wonder if that kaili seller is just listing stuff to make someone happy but not really planning on selling anything. Talk about setting the bar really really high!

 

[migu420]

Sounds like a handful, good luck my dude. If you off the spare parts, holler.

For sire, if theyre in a decent condition ill hit you up

Thanks for this, wasnt aware of the acetone technique. Thing is, it seems good for getting the midsole off the pair you dont want but i also have to get the midsole off a pair i still want to keep that havent been worn. , i gotta keep them looking fresh. The acetone looks like it destroys the bottom of the shoe.

for the pair that you wanna keep you can use the hot water technique, just pour some hot cooking water into the shoe and let it sit for awhile to make the glue melt so that you can peel of the upper from the midsole or second option is the hairdryer technique, use an hairdryer to blow at the edge from midsole to get the midsole seperated from the upper

Just curious, why are you doing a sole swap on a brand new pair?

he want to ditch the lunar midsole because he dont like the look of it and swap it for an traditional am1 midsole

What's up fam.  I've read NT for a while now, but just signed up this morning.

I wanted to share my Pendelton IDs with you.  I haven't used my camera for a while, so nothing crazy like some of you guys do.

Translucent black sole, sail mid sole, sail leather mudguard, black denim and anthracite canvas upper, lace swapped to the thin black laces.  6 inspired obviously, but I think these look better!

I wish I had ordered earlier in the cycle so I would have had time to order another.  Quality and shape are the best I've ever seen in my relatively short AM1 history.

I also have 3m ultras and 2014 black/grey/teal winter prms. 

I got off to a slow start with AM1s.  I remember going to the store to get my first pair and leaving empty handed since the quality made the shoe no where near worth the $100 price point.  Since then I've found some I'm more happy with.  Really hoping the Pendleton IDs come back again this winter.  I also have a few pairs or 90s and a bunch of running shoes.

I also recently went in on a pair of DS obsidian patches .5 over my size thinking I could make it work, but that's not the case.  I'll have them posted in the classifieds here eventually.

Looking forward to participating going forward.

Diggin those in a big way Rick.

Id pull the trigger if I saw those at the sto.

 

[unseen]

today: i was hating on the process of release, stayed away, but then got a "good" reseller deal, so in the end i was happy to pick these up. i will say nike really botched up the sizing on these.  TTS fits super roomy, half size down is tolerable but ima have to get into stretching them.

Yess! And its not even like grail type ish, its like laser blues for 499. Just dumb expensive.

 

[qujamerican]

To me I think natural light make it change color quicker....flashlight not as much

LOVE the ID and color blocking. Nice job!!

 

[otakuant]

 

Dope iD and nice shot! I'm usually not a fan of thin laces, but they look pretty good there. Wish I wouldn't have slept on the Pendelton materials.

Welcome to NT, btw!

 

[frankwh1te]

echoing everyone else but great job on those id's....

like you said, they look better than "the 6"

 

[snkrsfx]

@Frank, did you get a 13 of the Color Change?

 

[frankwh1te]

^nah I passed. They're cool just been spending too much as of late and I have the blue OG's already so it was overkill....

waiting on spiridons next month. prob double up on all the OG colorways of those.
