Orange available anywhere else? Blown I missed them on NDC.

 

[allergic2broke]

Yea me too I hesitated and the 12 was gone smh

 

[Red Run]

Curious question for my VETS in here , does anybody own an OG set of AM 90s ? Curious on seeing the OG CWS

Hyvent

Wmns Concords

Laser Blue

Wmns Hot Coral

Eggplants

Spruce lime

[fluid hips]

[KnowTheLedge]

Infrareds, Laser blues and spruce limes. Damn, those chlorophyll’s should’ve gotten the green heel tab. Wtf

 

[HomelessTrill_Goldie]

Hyvent

Wmns Concords

Laser Blue

Wmns Hot Coral

Eggplants

Spruce lime

not mine. I don’t own any OGs

Hopefully we get some of these CWS !

 

[Red Run]

I think I’m most hoping for a proper Hot Coral release.

The closest we’ve gotten were 2002 Mesa Orange and 2008 JD Sunburst’s.

they were close, but it ain’t the same lol

 

[KnowTheLedge]

I think Nike will drop those chlorophyll’s By the end , if not, next month. At least I hope they do. They’re straight draining our pockets

 

[monkeyd]

Are people mistakenly buying the orange thinking it’s infrared??

Are people mistakenly buying the orange thinking it’s infrared??

That would both be hilarious and sad if so.

 

[KnowTheLedge]

Are people mistakenly buying the orange thinking it’s infrared??

Yeah, I think so. Read some dude on twitter saying he’s been waiting for a minute these to drop. Lol

 

[perfectchaosrei]

well that's a good indication that actual infrareds probably won't sit the way other pairs have

 

[laidback93]

I think that's a valid theory.

 

[50inchvert]

Wasn't the Infrared color on the Infrareds referred to as another color when they originally released?

 

[Majorbread]

oranges are hot imo, folks def might still be getting confused though.

If infra's weren't an OG c/w, I'd probably prefer the oranges more.

 

[1978S]

Hyvent

Eggplants

Eggplants and Infrareds are all I want. All these other OG inspired colorways are cute and all, but...

Eggplants look

Yup!

Are people mistakenly buying the orange thinking it’s infrared??

Absolutely and for good reason. If you're not a sneaker head, Infrared means nothing to you. The majority of OG cats from the early 90's remember these as the Orange/White/Black AM 90's. Period.

 

[khdang178]

I respectfully disagree. I love AM 90 and sneakers in general but the infrared means nothing to me. It's just that I am from a different era so I don't get to experience what the infrared did to everyone when they first released.

Despite all the videos on Youtube praising the infrared, I just don't have any personal connection to them. I apologize in advance I have offended anyone. I just want to express my opinion.

 

[taz92]

I love the color orange, way more than infrared so those orange joints were a MUST cop for me.

 

[soleaddict33]

Damn, y'all went hard on those total oranges Guess I'll have to wait for them to pop up on other sites.

 

[tonytobacco]

Orange ones will look good with my army green jacket. Im starting to look forward to getting those in as much as the green

Not only is the theory on the sell out probably valid it was probably calculated by Nike. Thats prob why they hid the color code from us. Duped people with the vaguely volts having people thinking those are what all the sneaker sites posted a couple months back.

Or they were more limited and people are really into the oranges ligitimately

 

[laidback93]

I'm tempted to buy the chlorophyll or light green or whatever Nike is calling them. They're the only AM 90s in size 14 that I can find.

 

[rocafel1a]

Same. Can't decide between the chlorophyll's and the "green strikes".

 

[nostalgia94]

Was OG infrared Hyvent orange or radiant red, heard conflicting stories

 

[illustrayt]

Are people mistakenly buying the orange thinking it’s infrared??

I can definitely see that some people are. I think it's also clever (yet deceiving) that Nike chose not to include Orange in the colorway description for them.

Personally, I'm a big fan of the Orange accent on the OG colorblocking. I may even pass on the actual Infrareds in the holidays after copping the Oranges.

Laser Blue

I'll be honest... I'm only a fan of the OG Infrared colorblocking (with the White Mesh, Neutral Nubuck Grey Toe, Charcoal Swoosh, Black Mudguard and (INSERT BRIGHT color) accents. With that said, I hope they release a Laser Blue cw not in OG form but in the OG Infrared colorblocking! A Laser Blue rendition and a Speed Yellow would completely satisfy me with the AM90s in the OG colorblocking.

OG Mens says “H-red”, where the Hyvent comes in, But Nike has the CW catalogued as “Radiant Red”

The only “Radiant Red” I’ve seen was the GS pairs above.
You be the judge lol
