Say I want to trade my AM 1 Master for the atmos Elephant... What would be a good deal? I still can't decide if I want to go through with a trade or keep them. Been wanting the Elephant since its original release.
I painted these in my spare time. Being refugees, we didn't have a lot of money when my folks first arrived to Canada in 1983. After working hard, my dad bought his very first pair of sneakers in 1990, and it was the start of my love for Air Max shoes and sneakers in general.
Acrylic on Canvas...
As much as the Suptempos were dope, I didn't even try to get 'em. Had copped the "Bulls" a week prior and still am in awe.
Wrote a review on my blog. Also made a quick on-feet video:

I used insoles from a pair of Ultra Boost. They're much thinner than what's used in a pair of Air Max.
Took some more photos of my pair. Got a size 8 instead of 8.5 bc it was the last wearable size my local Footlocker had. After swapping the insoles, they feel a bit better.
Ordered my true size on footlocker.ca but they're notoriously known to oversell/cancel orders. Fingers crossed.
Also made...
Thanks for noticing ;D they're 2 acrylic paintings I made for fun.
My dad's first Air Max from 1990 which started my obsession with sneakers
A pair of Jordans I was obsessed with but had a hard time finding in my city at a decent price.
I usually go half a size down on 4's since they're wide and I have one wide foot. Good snug fit, but if you like a bit more wiggle room, go TTS.
If anything, you can add or swap insoles to adjust the fit.
For reference, I wear 8.5 in pretty much everything (AM1, AJ1, AJ11, AM90, AM95) except...
Ahh, the kids shoes are so damn cute! Keep thinking I should stock up on a pair of my future child... They're much better constructed than the adult's anniversary Ultra with the date on the tongue. What gives.
I know they've released countless times since '97, but it's the first time I can finally afford them. What a thing of beauty! Glad I went to my local Footlocker early - they only had one pair for each sizes.
Also hi. Long time lurker, first-time poster here.
