THE OFFICIAL AIR MAX 1 THREAD

@SingledOut  text me that about 30 minutes ago. I immediately checked my Nike+ account, got nothing, so I logged out and back in bc I've heard that helps sometimes. Still nothing. Text my wife to check hers. Nothing. Went to 3 people in my office who I had sign up for Nike+ in hopes of a reservation. Nothing. I then got his jk text. If we lived in the same state, we'd be boxing right now.
 
I thought the OGs would be like the HOA release...

I think I got my first HOA for like $60, threw them away because they got trashed...

Ended up buying a second pair a few years ago of ebay for $70 (worn) and I have beat them up too haha
 
Nike clearly doing this with view to flooding us with crappy colorways with a crappy shape on the basis that the hypebeasts will eat them up once they've bitten on the OG. A bit like what they did with huaraches a few years back.
 
im curious as to what makes the OG Reds so hype worthy. I mean its such a plain shoe yet Nike playin it with the limited QS card.im  confused

Usually the OG cws tend to get some hype on them compared to the usual stuff Nike pumps out. Combine that with the whole 30th anni marketing Nike is doing and the popularity of runners nowadays and that's how we get here
 
So the OG red and blue won't be releasing in stores like footlocker, finishline, etc?

Wanted to just walk in and try some on and make a purchase smh...
 
Its business as usual, their just playing the market. Is it nike claiming they're limited or just the retailers, which underneath it all, are the top of the resell chain?
 
In addition to yesterday's midsole post one more thing.... on a few pics of the Berrys and Pinnacles I noticed it almost looks like their midsole after starting to point upwards again, is also bending slightly down again, at the front of the foot.

However I think this is caused by shadow of too much fabric of the mudguard, which we've seen on a few NDC pics before (don't remember which pairs). There either seems to be too much fabric, or even came loose off the midsole because of crappy build quality.

Especially on this angle you can see it quite clear, and to me this detail and the curvy midsole make the shoes look very very sloppy and cheap.

Just entered the END raffle, not holding my breath with that though. Hopefully I can cop them through Nike or Size on Saturday morning. All this hype over a pair of OGs wasn't even heard of a few years ago, crazy how things change.
