Official Nike Air Griffey Max 1 Thread

[kicks2024]

Im liking these much better in person. Whatever they did on the these are is far superior than whatever they did with the Varsity Royals. The feel/material is better, the fit is definitely much better and true. VRs were HUGE in a 13, these 13s are just slightly longer than a 12.5

Is there a glitch or are these sitting on Nike?

Looks like that poll came through for us this time

Super sitting. Last Friday, bought a size 10 on footlocker, just to see how TTS would work, as my Freshwaters are a half size up. Definitely a no go. Was able to grab a 10.5 yesterday from NDC with ease

As of yesterday evening I walked into my local mall and grabbed the 90’s. All models including the air max 1 were still sitting. Meant to update last night but if anyone lives in Delaware/NJ/PA areas the footlocker Christiana Mall in Newark , DE had everything.

Just grab my second pair of size 15‘s today.

These big sizes will be hard to find and I don’t think a retro will be coming anytime soon, looking forward to wearing these babies

I don't know if I'm I'm exaggerating or not but Ken Griffey Jr was like the MJ of baseball for a stretch. Growing up in the 90's it was a lot of black kids that had no interest in baseball but we knew who Ken Griffey Jr was. Him having a sneaker line that was fire just made him bigger than baseball.

I stayed up to watch the Mariners whenever they was on TV just for him.

Kid was anointed the one who was supposed to break Ruth’s record. He was most definitely the MJ of baseball during the 90s.

Not exaggerating at all. Ken Griffey Jr is/was the most popular baseball player of all time and was definitely the most marketable. I think it's hard to even debate anyone over him.

Jr coming home and joining my hometown Reds will always be my favorite sports memory.

I was a Rangers fan as a kid but I would always go to The Ballpark in Arlington” when the Mariners were in town because I wanted to watch Griffey play. I also got to see him play with the Reds in St Louis.

What was the poll for these like? I missed it and now I'm curious. If these were on SNKRS I think they would've got smoked.

 

[antoekneeo]

Not at all. Born and raised in SF so the Giants are my team but Griffey is my favorite player of all-time. I used to dream of having him on the Giants with Bonds. Unlike my father's and grandfather's generation baseball was just not popular among black kids in my city but most knew who Griffey was and wanted to wear his shoes.

Griffey had that style and character you just couldn’t hate. And that swing…it was beautiful!

 

[geno90221]

Krazy I never knew Griff tired to take his own life that pressure of being the GOAT ain’t no joke...

I was forced to watch him and tiger in the 90s lol. I was trying to watch cartoons

Frank remains at odds with Reebok for sure...OG Big Hurts were amazing though. Great memories of those too.

 

[g-time]

Had big hurt cleats when I was in the 4th or 5th grade. Was a first baseman too.

He was with Nike at the end of his playing career….I saw him in a Nike tee in those, “and she will notice it too” commercials
But in the newest one, he is wearing a Reebok golf shirt…

not an exaggeration at all - he was the MJ of baseball

Born and raised just outside of Atlanta and every single one of us black or white wanted to be Griffey. Imitated the swing the walk after the bomb wanted #24 (ya boy had that one on lock) etc
