Damn I was on the fly on my phone and didn’t even think or worry about looking into it. I stumbled across a direct link to the AM+ product page so didn’t look at a single other thing on the site. Didn’t cross my mind I had to worry about fakes of these. Oops LOL
First time I ever goofed...
$165 shipped to me in LA. with no tax charged. Better than the $198 it is at full price with tax.

I didn’t even get into the “quality” when I made my easy call to pass on them. Shape and EP were all I needed to see. It wasn’t some long debate with myself, either. Picked them up, held them up and looked at them for 30 seconds. Walked away depressed but never regretted it for a millisecond.
OG and very early retro IVs don't have the yellow netting problem like all the new stuff does. Same goes for OG Vs, which somehow avoid having their clear netting yellowing anywhere near like the later and current retros do.
I gotta believe it's something like this. Obviously they also changed the actual mold of that area of the posite material, too, with two additional seams in the upper area around the big toe area. Still a bummer.
I look at every image that gets posted in here and sadly they don't grow on me at all. If anything, I like them less than I did when images first appeared. That cantaloupe midsole just looks wrong no matter the colorway or angle I view the shoe from :lol:
Anyone on here who ever thought @23mj88 was just “predicting” ish and doesn’t know things is a frucking moron x1000. If you fall into that category—and you know if you do—piss off back to reddit and Instagram. Bunch of frucking clowns. :stoneface:
Yeah. Thing is, there’s a difference between new shape and close to OG shape. I’m happy enough with my white/reds and they’re better than the Playoff colorway in my opinion. But they ain’t the OGs. Nike’s marketing lately loves to say OG or 1:1, but it’s almost never accurate.
Yeah, exactly, I'll believe it when I see it. But on the off chance they actually improve the shape noticeably, that's great and about time, but I'm gonna be so freaking pissed they waited till after the white/reds dropped to do it.
