Are Air Force 1's still poppin???

[430AM]

Serious Question.

Nobody rocks them in my area and I don't even really see them being sold in stores around me. I come across them in outlets sometimes but theyre mostly on the hash wall with no boxtops.

The denim joints below are pretty raw but that has more so to do with the design than the actual shoe itself... So are AF1's pretty much done for or what?

around me, at my HS, they are done....I'm sure they have fallen off....even those futura highs are only 89 on eBay. I'd say they have fallen off even among the non collectors...Nike pushed em too hard and the masses grew tired of em..they became played out imo. And for collectors, the quality got less and less and the cws are ehhhh, compared the older simple stuff.


I like AF1s (mostly 90s pairs), but the futura highs, denims, and the bobbitos are in my book...I had only one pair of uptowns and those were from 04, beat them to death, lasted me a good 6 years though, finally threw them out in 2010.

this pair: pic is from 09 too

pstt good luck man, i think these will sell out for sure and wont go on sale. Dont depend on what I said about futuras being 89 on eBay either....i predict these will be a lot more than 135 when its all said and done.

maxpapic, "nike pushed em too hard' means that Nike released too many cws per year and oversaturated the market with cw after cw....look at how many cws they dropped in 03 compared to 06
