I can't say. Got them early from a small shop where I live. They haven't released em yet so I promised not to say. For a small shop, they had a good amount. I think these will be easy to get.

We're do I find instructions on how to post pics? I will give it another shot. There's a reason I have no picture for my profile. Big ****** here.

All good, homie.  I completely understand.  I guess I just wanted to see if it was a small shop or a chain store, and you answered that for me.  

If I had to guess, I could see this release being similar to the Chlorophyll AT1s.  And that's a good thing.  Not as widespread as the 2010 Infrared release, but also not a huge hassle to track down.  I hope I'm right.   
 
I hope the yellow comes off the midsole as easy as the AJKO's from a couple years ago.
I scrubbed it off the KO's with a damp sponge, just water, no chemicals.
I'll take 3 pair of the Infrared 90's if I can do the same thing to them.
 
^ I read somewhere last night that the yellowing is just an unpainted midsole, so I'm not sure if it'll be able to be wiped off at all.
 
Once you see them in person you'll see the yellowing works

I can't imagine they will be hard to get, eBay sellers can't even get $150 for them now and the wide releAse is a week away

Yeah, I see a lot of dudes on eBay trying to beat folks over the head for $160-180 shipped.  Get the eff outta here with that.

Do people not realize you can get a pair of HOAs for that much?  I'd say that most people looking at these OG joints already have/had a pair of regular Infrareds, so there's no way they're gonna get taxed like that.  And folks new to the colorway will see the fresh looking, 2010 non-yellowed joints for the same price as the vintage ones.  Which pair do you think they'll go with?  

Sometimes resellers defy logic.

^I just noticed I paid $140 from my spot, retail for $120. Didnt even realize they charged $20 more. Whatever, I'll pay that extra tax just to keep getting pictures texted to me when a new early shipment comes in. About to drop them off a big bottle of Crown as a Merry Christmas present.

$140 isn't bad considering retail is $120.  I wouldn't even be mad at that markup.  And like you said, you're getting more than just a pair of sneakers when you support that local spot.  

On a related note, I just went in my closet and looked at my pairs of Infrareds.  The HOA's were priced at $80.  2010's at $95.  And now these OG joints at $120.

Price hikes are inevitable, but $25 in two years seems excessive.  
 
Have been on the fence about the aged midsole but who am I kidding..when I see these in person I know they will be a must have for me.

I guess the 90's and 1's will be my next pickups.
 
Are these a general release , because when I checked the release calendar on eastbay there was no mention of any othe air max of vntg collection on 12/31
 
Wow they even got the mesh correct. If only they would put that strip around the air unit they would have been on point. Nike did an impressive job on these.
 
The 97's that you seen are the EM and they are gonna drop the og mesh 97's soon when the 95's drop my store told me.
 
What is the scheduled US release date for both pairs?

Anyone know if the Air Base Retro is dropping here the same time as well?

Thanks.
