ive been refering to the info on the 1st page for awhile (about the og's releasing as well as the vt's), but the latest news is the vt's are the only ones dropping and not the og's? or are the og's just releasing later on?

Shouldn't be an issue a few months down the road... The Air Flight One (blk/blk/white) can be picked up for under $70 right now, and before those dropped everyone was talking about copping them (obviously they didn't). If that retro sits (in its OG form), these should sit (in their updated VT form). I hear these are somewhat limited, though I haven't seen it confirmed...

Will pick up a pair in outlets
For the love of god I hope when the Gozillas re-retro they don't use this Vac-Tech crap.

In my opinion, the OG Black are THE best non-Jordan basketball shoe....the FAB 5 Air Maestro's is a very tight second.

Have these already dropped in some locations? Been to a couple of my local FL and FNL, still not available yet.

So are we getting the OG Air Force Max too, or are we ONLY getting this "updated" 2013 version?

Like Ninja said...
I might just grab the VT (after a price drop) as a "stunt double"
UNLESS Nike DOES drop the OG style on us...

Vac tech would be dope on these.......
i wouldnt even get the black ones from the outlet tho....the suede is like one of the nicest parts of the black force max's imo.

Pretty much
Been wanting these for a minute, so I'll probably just end up coppin these (since its looking like the OG's won't get released along with these).

VT is Nike's line of thermo-molded shoes without visible seams or stitching. “Vac Tech” technology uses a form of vacuum compression to create a unibody upper that’s said to be both durable and water-resistant.

Wanna dunk myself in a garbage bin for not copping this @ around $87 a couple of years back.
