I know its not a good sign, but on OG air maxes from like 95-99, what does it mean when the air bubbles are fogged up? Basically I'm guessing it means its a wrap. Any info? Thanks.

Humidity from the air. Doesn't necessarily mean its done. Take a blowdryer to dry up the condensation

agree with af1_1982... try a hairdryer (low/warm setting. not too hot or too close).
temporary fix.

So is it even worth buying a pair of air maxes with the air bubbles cloudy (heel & forefoot)? Would I be rolling the dice, or is there any way to tell if there's some damage or midsole cracking in the future? Thanks for the relies by the way.

be VERY careful though, don't want to risk sole separation

foggy air bubbles is fine. what you should be worried about is if the midsole is intact and the glue is not dried out. I've never tried a hairdryer on the air units but i've just used soap, hot water, and a toothbrush on them and that seems to have worked with my older shoes with foggy air units
