THE OFFICIAL AIR MAX 1 THREAD

[ucmeatuci]

The Air Max 1 is the best looking Air Max silhouette in my opinion. Just a very classic design. It seems like most of the unique Air Max 1 colorways can only be found in boutique shops and Nike Sportswear stores. I wonder why Nike doesn't release them at a more mass level like the Air Max 90, 95, 97, etc? I might have to iD myself a pair soon.

More pics from MN of the Holiday release AM1's

^^Those are all dope, lets hope they stagger the release of these and not all at one time. LOL

Those Navy/Grey pair are so sick.

 

[almostnotready]

That Blue/Grey/Orange..
And that Emerald/Lavender?

 

[wetalkbusiness]

man I like all those pairs but that white sole looks like its bound to crack like the last am1 qs 

 

[air jsarg]

Navy Blues are a must cop, suede looks hella buttery in those pics!

Damn, Nike is going HARDBODY the next year with AM1's.  Just saw these on theillest.com (Can't understand/translate the details, just wanted to show the pics)
[h2]Nike Air Max 1 Premium – Essential Pack (Wiosna 2013)[/h2]
18 lipca 2012 | Komentarzy: 0

Na początku miesiąca widzieliście trzy wersje Air Max 1 Premium ze Suede Pack  na wiosnę 2013, dziś przed Wami kolejne wersje “jedynek” z wariancie Premium. Cały zestaw będzie się nazywał Essential Pack, a w jego skład wchodzą trzy wersje kolorystyczne modelu Air Max ’87: szara z niebieskim mudguardem, stalowo czarna i na koniec szaro/czarno/biała. Designerzy marki Nike  zdecydowali się osadzić je wszystkie na białej podeszwie. Poniższe buty Air Max 1 powinny pojawić się w sklepach na początku 2013 roku.

This was also from theillest.com, but sneakernews.com posted it up today.  Curious to see actual pics of all these.  The potential looks serious...

The mid-to-late twenties is a time when experience and youthful vigor come together for some of sport’s greatest peak performances, but the runner pictured above was dominant the day it was born.  Entering its twenty-sixth year in 2013, the Nike Air Max 1 Premium  is poised to make a statement in the first quarter with a trio of colorways featuring a heavy reliance upon black and a two-thirds mix for high contrast.  That’s true both in terms of the pack and both the red and white pairs, a duo of two-toned offerings that echo the textural contrast apparent on the blackout pair.  Have a closer look below, let us know how these compare to this year’s outstanding crop of Air Max 1s and stick with Sneaker News for release info.  via TheIllest

LOVE the AM 1's but I'm not sure if any of these colourways do it for me. Perhaps I just need to see them in person before making up my mind.

 

[panaricanretro]

Now that I think about it, couple of these remind me alot of some AM1 ID colorways that some NTers have done in the past.  Possible NT bite?

 

[poonsaloon]

Anybody know what happened to this release? Europe only??

 

[blacklion23]

Some really nice colorways dropping! I'm really feeling the light bone and that emerald/lavender color-way.

 

[just nikes]

Question: How many times have the og white red grey am 1s dropped and in what years? as you can see I know nothing about am 1s and would like this to be my first pair...

Originals had the huge air unit that were deemed unstable, so they redid the midsole with a smaller unit back in 87/88.

2 different OG versions in the late 80's

OG Version 1

Damn, I guess there's no way of getting them out of there since I heard no overseas Nike stores will do shipping. I seriously need these in my life!!! Hahaha.....thanks for the heads up though and stay safe!

anyone got a hook on the blue hyperfuse am1's in an 11/11.5?

 

[chuban7]

These are pretty dope.

 

[green rhino123]

nice list...

i know they re-released or retro'd around 1991/92
& also retro'd n 2002/2003 as well

 

[anticop23]

would be nice if Nike made more black-base good color blocking AM1's.

You're right, they did retro in 2002, I forgot about those. They had the clear air unit. Ill update my post.
