What color is the mudguard and overlay on them? I think I ordered a kind of similar pair. (Mine are taupe haze)

I've been sleeping on 90's for a while. My last pair was the Infrareds that came out around 2011-12 I think. I just never liked how the paint would chip off on the sides by the air bubble. Hopefully that's not the issues with these new ones. Im really loving these new versions, made me pass on those Bacons (Probably will regret it in the future) because that shape doesn't do it for me., not feeling that toe box and mudguard. Only issue with the 3's I have is that I wish they did the toe box I like they did on the Recrafts. Toe box on the 3's don't go up as high as the Recrafts. Feel like that would have made the 3's even more of a sleeker shoe. Giving it that ol school slant.

The am1, am90's, uptown's, aj1's, & dunk thread are mad specific when it comes to the shape & structure of the model. I didn't realize I did that as well b4 I started this siteI've been sleeping on 90's for a while. My last pair was the Infrareds that came out around 2011-12 I think.

anyone worn their am3/recraft 90s enough to know if they still do have paint chiping and cracking issues on the midsole?

No chipping at all. The pairs I’ve worn the most have a slight crack after like 100 wears. Oddly enough the bacons have a hairline crack in the back paint after one wear. Overall the recrafts have held up phenomenal.

As a life long AM guy never would’ve thought that in 2021 I would get Clots, Bacons, and laser 90’s!!! Crazy and grateful!

No one at Nike addressed my concern of the options no longer being available. I’m tired of emailing and calling them and not getting answers to specific questions. Even “I don’t know” is better than pretending not to hear me. I got a little aggy with a rep yesterday and it bothered me to be bothered by something so trivial. I think I’m done with Nike By You at this point.

^Infrareds came out last year (possibly the best retro done since the early 2000s), therefore I disagree with your statement

Yeah that remark was off the hip...I meant business-wise, not necessarily product-wise.
Then again, I haven't been able to buy many of their products lately

I reshaped my recrafted 90s, and they came out nicely
My infrareds started cracking, but my turqs which i wear more are ok for now.

Nike, like most large retailers, don’t give a **** about their customers. Customer service in 2021 is pretty much ****ing non existent anymore.

Nike lets you buy ****, wear it as much as you want, and return it for free within 2 months. Its hard for me to be mad at them about anything when this is true.

Let it process through! At least you’ll get you’ll receive your design and see how it turned out. You can always return them if you’re not satisfied.
Speaking of NBYs, Doug Funnie NBYs for work today. These are my most worn NBY 90s, and the midsole paint hasn’t cracked!

Definitely one of my favorites from last year! The design theme is so subtle.
