Air max 96...Do you think nike will retro them?

im pretty sure they will retro sooner than later.

 

reminds of me the Air Max Tailwinds

I wish they would as long as they are true to the OG - I had the black & purple pair.

They got messy fast though, the white mesh got dingy real quickly. Great pair. Almost got the blue/greens but missed the chance.

Waiting too long for these joints...not that 180 bammer !!

 

I still have my trashed pair.

 

I sold a pair or two of the Grey/Violets some years back. I think one of them was my size. That's one of the few shoes I wish I had.

 

Lots of Air Maxs retroing but no love for the 96.

 

Any news of a release? Though a sneaker blog posted( I know not all reliable)some info a while back about a 2015 retro. I need the black/purple in rotation.

I had my hopes up when AMD posted that pic of that sole swap in a different thread

Hoping NSW takes notice and gives us a proper retro.

 

Yall are playing with people's emotions bumping this thread like this

 

 instead of complaining you should give me some reps

peeps need to be thankful that i post pictures from ultra rare unseen OG heat

 

(yeah i know, some peeps in here now must hate me LMFAO )

2006 Unreleased AM96 Scream Green Look See Sample 

i was just in the mood to playing with emotions from some of the peeps in here    

 

Wow look at those tiny air bags.

 

thats how they will look like if they are coming back this year, so be prepared for that

all the AMs that are made after 2005 have small air units

 

I still have my OG scream green 96s.

 

nice bump . Don't like that tennis ball green

 

The OG color was called Scream green and more of a green color than volt is now.

 

That brightness takes away from the blue Which is wack

 

i like smaller air units, make the shoe last longer.. never been a fan of the 96's until I seen Cole from a Martin episode wear them.. he had a dope outfit on it that episode. they will eventually come back.. im not in a rush for them thou.. maybe like summer of 16 or 17

 

I HATE the tiny air units they've used since '05. And it's all because of damn environmentalists threatening to accuse Nike of contributing to global warming. They were forced to use different air unit gas and redesign their air units.

Heaven forbid a company take a look at how their production methods impact the environment (which they clearly did after having it brought to their attention) and make positive changes. The audacity!!

Btw, I don't believe the hype about the units being smaller because of using nitrogen now. Look at the size of the units on the 360--there's no reason Nike couldn't make them bigger on retros. Just like using inferior materials, they do it to cut costs.
