@coordinate - I think you mentioning my name is what tipped him off to that IG account being me.
@stitchie - I have a lot but not all of my original collection left. Before quarantine, I had started selling a lot of it off on IG. But, I paused because I can't really justify the added random...
They may be "perfect," but the quality still sucks.
There's really no polite way of saying this, but if you don't look at these releases as garbage from the quality side, you've just not been around long enough to have experience with the brand when it did produce objectively high quality...
It's definitely accurate. Those who've been around these boards forever will vouch for my words.
The other thing about this release is that there is a huge supply of high quality fakes as well - much more than the TB3s. I essentially count that as part of "supply" as well, because most of this...
My dude! What up?!
Shout to anybody still around here.
I know I'm gravedigging here, but I just want to give a tip of the cap to this pair. One of the best pairs released in, hell, probably the last 10 years. And it's no surprise because although the shoe is credited to Haze, one of the...
t.
But, you're a "grown man" discussing sneakers on an internet forum with a bunch of strangers. ...Ain't nothin' "adult" about that either.
There, that's my yearly post.
Interested in this too.
I have a lot of pairs where the air bag is crumbling or a stitch or two in the midsole has come detached. Still wearable, but not all that comfortable.
Happy Thanksgiving to my NT AF1 fam.
I'm rarely on here anymore, but this was my NT home for most of my stay on this site.
It's a shame that I'm mostly "retired" bc it's nearly impossible to find the stuff still on my list that I don't have - unless Kev leaves them to me in his will.
FTR, I still maintain that 95 out of 100 of the Freddy pairs are fakes. I can only vouch for 4 pairs of samples all sold through RIF.LA.
...You can go hundreds of pages back, Me and John had convos about this.
Don't really have anything to post. Just wanted to check in with my peeps in this thread to let you all know I'm still alive, lol.
I've been lurking a bit since the AF1 remasters have dropped, and realized I haven't dropped in here.
Shout outs to all my peoples from this thread still holding...
Yeah, what a lot of people don't realize is that a lot of the colorways they are re-issuing "premium" are in line with the original "AF1 of the month" that they did when Charlie Ruddo and those guys got Nike to retro the AF1 in B-more back in the days. Chocolates and Royals were among the first...
Agree with Ty.
And,c ourirs are classic. Great pair to remake. Normally, I say to up it w the qwuality, but when you are re-making classics, truest to original look is the way to go.
Traded my third pair a while back, still holding two. I wore a pair when I was in Pairs a few years ago, and...
