The Official Nike Air Max 90 Thread

I didn't make up anything. Grade school sizes were labeled as Air Max III. I was 12, so probably wearing grade school sizes.

Wow. Then it must have been a kids thing or international? - I see the person selling this pair is from France-. Either way I apologize but I've never seen a pair like that stateside. Do we have any other kids boxes in any other colors from a US collector/seller?
 
Yeah the TD/PS and sometimes GS models often have the real names of the shoes instead of just the plain 'Air Max' written on the box.

I had to search the kids box to properly ID many of the old Air Max models (examples: Air Max Triax 3, Triax 3 Plus, Air Max Tailwind VI and beyond, International Triax Plus etc...)

For instance the Air Max Light is labelled "Air Max II" on the PS models.

Sometimes even the kids shoe don't show the real name and you have to check the samples, here is the naming convention for the Air Max 95 to 99:

Air Total Max = 95
Air Total Max 2 = 96
Air Total Max 3 = 97
Air Total Max 3 Extra = 98
Air Total Max 4 = 98 TL
Air Total Max 4+ = 99

I wanted to share these to show what the camo looks like. It is the same material unlike the Nike By You pics show. The camo is really light and faded looking in person. Not sure I will keep. Just not as vibrant as the real duck camos. Hope the post helps if you are ordering though.

I got a pair of these coming soon. I think I might send mine back. Thanks for putting up the pictures.

Do you know what does the SC mean?
 
Can finally retire my 2005 History of Air pair (left)! Gonna wear these this week to give them a proper send-off and then back in the box they shall remain. Always loved the insoles of the HOA pairs.

Dayum!!! Look at that air bubble on the 05! Looks ready to go. I respect wearing them till they're like this so dope! That true sneaker love.
 
I’m starting to think we get them in Canada Nov 28th like Europe. Out Nike release calendar typically follows theirs so....lame I know.

yeah as soon As I seen the Europe release dates I was already thinking the same thing. I only buy local so it also keeps me overspending. I also never pay resell. Hoping to go into the mall and buy with ease. Hope you get
Your pair with ease as well.
 
My NBYs arrived. Probably my last AM90 purchase of the year. The quality on these is INSANELY good. Glad I didn’t hesitate and miss out on any of the “Shroud/Camo” options.

My bad on the multiple pics, but I’m sure people waiting to order want to see the quality. The leather (on the tongue) beats any recent NBYs whether Air Maxes or Air Forces. It’s 2016 Pendelton options quality.

The team... they’re aight. They had a shot this year, but we’ll always be in LA’s shadow. I just feel weird about wearing teams not where I’ve called home. Not judging anyone that does, but it just feels weird to me personally. Been in SD for 18 years.
