White AF1’s are THE most overrated shoe on the planet. I walked by a group of 6 teens the other day, and all of them were rocking dirty af white AF1’s. Of course I was wearing my Zebras, so I got some stares and dirty looks.

The teens have made them so cringe. (MAN I FELT “OLD” typing this HOLY HELL) If i had my air forces looking like i’ve seen some of them at that age.

1.) my parents were gonna beat my ***
2.) I wouldve got ROASTED in school
3.) I would never let my shoes get that bad.

I feel like an oldhead when I look at Jordan 4 resell prices. The Taupe Haze 4s aren’t even a good shoe for retail let alone $400+ for them, but just because it looks like a “Travis Scott” shoe people are all over them. It’s easily a shoe that would’ve sat on the rack to hit outlets for $139.99 + 20% off if it was back then.

Yep and 9 times outta 10 they're sporting ripped "mom" or black skinny jeans probably rocking an oversized sweater or flannel. Its literally the uniform. I work in a sneaker store and can almost always tell when a girl is bout to ask if we have white air forces it really is meme status at this point.

It's to a point where I'll just be like "hey welcome! We don't have any white air forces in stock at the moment just so you know." They'll be like "omg really!?" Then walk right out the store the game has officially been gentrified.

You guys are cracking me up with this white af1 talk. My 10 year old daughter asked for her 1st pair this Xmas. 2 wears and they are totally beat, but she thinks their the coolest. Times are a changing. Its up to us to pass the sneaker torch properly. Lord knows these greedy companies like Stock X aren't going to show the younger generation the right way. Don't even get me started on their shoe NFT scam.

 

[theillegalalien]

Back to the Crimsons. Both pairs are supposed to be delivered today. Unfortunately I've been stuck in the hospital since Monday, from a cat bite to the hand. I will give an update on QC when I see them.

I’m not a hype beast, but I think the only AF’s that look good are off white’s.

Plain white ones look ugly af, especially with the fit they have on. They think it goes with everything, actually doesn’t go with anything.

Whoa!

Sidenote: I'm not big on white af1s myself but I'm just not a fan of solid colored sneakers. Gotta have some colorblocking to move the needle for me.

 

[boldnewbflakes]

Same, don’t get me wrong I like AF1s I own the all whites and all blacks but they rarely get worn, solid color sneaks don’t do it for me

 

[boldnewbflakes]

They think it goes with everything, actually doesn’t go with anything.

They’ll dead wear it with any fit in the closet whether it’ll be a sundress, bikini, oversized sweats, birthday suit, you name it

 

[slaughterx]

Yeah that's a wild statement.

 

[Bubbletea]

Nike is stupid af for using lasership lost my thunders….

I hate that they continue to use those bozos. Stole several shoes from me last year. I called nike multiple times begging them to stop using them and they acknowledged that a lot of people have had the same issues. It’s insane.

 

[boldnewbflakes]

Pair arrived yesterday but just now checking them out. These some dust magnets for sure. Besides the obvious glue marks my pair is okay

 

[Raji Lowenthal]

White on white sneakers are the worst imo.

 

[ihust1e]

lmao y’all wylin. Crisp white AF1s are timeless

What’s lasership? Is it a carrier or like a partner with a carrier service?

 

[Raji Lowenthal]

I can dig it but I don't get down with it.

 

[James_O]

My pair is supposed to come in tmr. Hoping they aren’t completely messed up so I can resell.

 

[jayzigotem]

 

[kingjay718]

No

These 4’s looks like they could’ve been Player Exclusives during his time with the Blazers

I can see that. He wore some nice 4 retro PE's in Miami back in 2006.

It's a low budget carrier service. They left my shipment of crocs on a whole other floor the other day. didnt ring my bell or nothing.
