Damn $40? Nice pickup for real. Yeah I have never done a restore either. I know I'll ruin something so I don't.
Another pair of the STS.

Yeah they are dope. I so wish they were wearable!!!!!
I don't think Twin1er has met a Barrage he didn't like.
Good job with the pic. It works for me. As far as if they were meant for a bowl game I don't know. Hmm...
The Peace Raids or the Darwins? I have a few more Darwins.
He had the Peace Raids. I believe a size 9 though like a month ago.

I don't think I have any of them. I have some Air Raids but I doubt any of them are wearable. Damn shame too such a dope shoe.

Damn I forgot all about them. Dope shoe. I don't think there are any in the stash. Just pulled these today.
Nike Air Fly Mid. Not really a big fan of these in the black but I'm feeling them in this white and gold. Normally when I find something it's too small. Today too big, size 12. Go figure.

I would think so. They have the same type build as the Barrages. Trydan has a pair that he wears.

white/gold colorway wow, never seen that one up close. black/orange is my favorite air fly colorway tho.
yep I can confirm this. I have zero concerns about the wearabiliy of the fly's JC.
I really want eastbay to put up complete pdf's of their old catalogs. mine only go back to late 95 and they are an invaluable resource for identifying vintage clothes of all kinds.

Yep. I like the Air Gones better than the Air Go LWP. The strap does it for me. They were great shoes.

I was thinking of these. Perhaps I'm confused with something else though.
The Darwin Lite Was A Retro In 2000 That I Believe Only Came Out At Footactions. They Were White And Green Like The OG's But Had No Air Bubble. The White/Black Pair Pictured Was When They Retroed The Darwin Again In 2005 And 2006.

I Believe These Were Called Air Grill. These, The Bakins, And Another Very Similar Looking Shoe Called The Air Scald Were Recalled Due To The Allah Controversy. Both My OG Red's And Blue's Have Nike Patches Over The Air/Allah On The Back.

Ahhh... one of the best memories of all. Wore this shoe the day I lost my virginity.but I wasn't about to question shorty's taste in music if she was about to let me get it in.
Haha. Of course, my man. Forgot about it again though, so here I go finally.
Limiting this to models that have never been retro-ed.
Well, this was retro-ed, but this CW was jacked up so badly it's as if the retro didn't count.
Okay, cheating a bit here, since the Burst has been retro-ed, but the materials on this are so crazy I wanted to post anyway.
This Is A Great Post And Thread. I've Enjoyed It And May Post Some Pictures Of The Vintage Shoes I Have Left That Haven't Cracked Or Crumbled. The Air Ubiquitous Max Which Was Jerry Rice's Unofficial Sig Are A Grail Of Mine In The Black/Volt Colorway. Whenever I Can Find Them, They're Always An 8, 8.5, Or A 9. The Ubiquitous Max Did Get Retroed In Summer Of 2000 As A Footaction Exclusive In All White, And White And Navy....Not Even Coming Close To Doing That Shoe Any Justice. Nike Also Did This With Footaction With An All White Shake Ndestruckt, And A White/Navy Air Pippen 1.

My friend has a pair of the Lites and they are black and red. I like them but I'm a sucker for most red and black kicks so my opinion is biased. I'll have to get some pics of them.
Here go some Air Slants

I think the Air Slants hold the record for most swooshes on a shoe.

Yeah that colorway is dope. I forgot all about them.
I've heard this from a bunch of people. Lol.
They definitely have the swooshes on lock. No denying that.
I don't know if I posted these before but they are a different size I know that so here they are again...maybe.
OG Diamond Furies size 12. F that garbage retro they dropped.

I wouldn't be surprised if Nike did retro these again, with the correct sole, but with EM. At that point, I'd say they're just being spiteful!OG Diamond Furies size 12. F that garbage retro they dropped.

I'm sure they will but you can pretty much guarantee that they will be a crap retro as usual. I just bought the all black Air Force Maxes and they are without a doubt the most uncomfortable pair of kicks I have EVER worn. I wore them for 2 hours and had to take them off. They were Absolutely killing my feet.
