    its the mens concord cw swapped with the midsole from the wmns grape 95s



    or if you got the cash to spent go talk with the guy above, he is located in London and he still got old heat for sale what he digs out from time to time from his old sweatshop inventory, i have seen people that have copped wearable OG 95 and 96s from him

    I dont get it, they put big air bubbles in the Air Sensation but with this release they said "F it, we're just gonna give them a whole new midsole. They'll never know...." NIKE stay butchering classics... Been waiting for this model to retro and they dropped the ball SMFH.

    When I was scrolling down I glanced at your post and thought I saw 96 Z''s (the 95 Z's were the joints with the zipper in the front , similar to the OG flightposite, only turrible because theyre on an AM 95)

    and thought to myself "An Air Max 96 Z ?? Who gave them that awful idea?"

    Is it bad that I don't mind those? Saw them on IG earlier, like the white outsole/black bubble combo

    Not a bad price, but only small sizes left. I got the OG scream green color for $125 off eBay. Even though there are barely any stores online selling them, I'm hoping they show up at outlets for cheap.

    Got Some gift cards for christmas and thinking about getting these. I know they aren't favored by a lot of OG collectors but I really like them. Anyone in here end up buying a pair?

    they had 40% or 50% discount on all the Air Maxes, what included the black 96 S II cw

    nah i didnt scoop them up, not really my cup of tea, last month i bought a 2nd pair of AM95 FC Evertons and this month i copped a pair of wolf grey/volt TNs and i was also planning to cop a pair of all blue 3M AM97s on ebay but i messed up and i was too late, i should've copped them immediately when i saw them [​IMG]   [​IMG] i slowed down a lot with buying kicks, if i wont do that i will probably end up having 300-400 pairs of kicks after 2-3 years, what is totally useless imo, wtf you're gonna do with so many shoes ??

    Nice! Good buys!

    Yeah I definitely agree. I've gotten very picky lately. Having that many pairs would definitely be useless haha

    I was talking with someone about these redone 96s and he was saying that the midsoles have lunarlon in it. It sounds like BS to me but can anyone confirm?

    I'm interested in the blk/wht IIs(the only pair that looks decent with the new midsole IMO), but the current $ is holding me back. Lunarlon would help justify the purchase is all. I'm probably still gonna wait til they go on sale and get 25% off.

    So I don't think it's lunarlon, but if you watch the review video Airmaxdisciple posted the dude shows you that it's like a memory foam on the heel. Looks great! I ended up ordering a pair. I'll let you know how it is when they come in
