in this case it is clear what concord is. they failed to reproduce it on all parts ,that's all . no biggie .

gotcha , I just was illustrating the blue not being purple enough on the top. I did not bother with the bottom as they they do match the og concord in colour.

they did not match the concord perfectly on the mesh and tongue .too dark and too blue. well spotted! they did remove the paint from the airbag ,so that is looking better . also notice how they shortened the tongue too much as the previous was too big. the real issue for me and any purist is...

six , still got them all . I put them in order of release: ultra's and lime ,then second round they came with the ceramic and turquois ,and the final two cw's were the concords and crimson reds.

I am looking at a short video of the air 180 on @sheshoe_game on instagram . I recommend watching it . they do look magnificent in this vid , after all ,they are based on the best nike ever made , in my humble opinion of course , the air 180.

I already mentioned they were not og build at all , that is why they never proudly showed the bottom ,they knew we would react like this . I had prepared myself already for the disappointment and had accepted they were ,regarding the air 180 airbag and mid /outsole itself ,no og build ...

they can not make tubes either , you will have to make do with transistors. look at the poor state of the remaining company of cassette decks. they made better cassette decks in the seventies. technology gets lost, and the knowhow .companies move on. also it cost huge sums of money to brick back...

size 13 vs size 7 . they are not the same size , the airbag, however, is the same size. the brain gets fooled into thinking the smaller pair has a bigger air unit and the bigger pair has a smaller one ,while in fact they both measure 7,5 cm long. They should keep the name how it was ,do the...

the translucent rubber pieces covering the airbag and being part of the outsole design, on the original outsole. the retro does not seem to be constructed that way. no biggie or deal breaker to me.

the size is also important , because of the scaling from small to big. I have many sizes of all og cw's .the smallest og's use the same airbag as the biggest og's ,so none are the same because the shoe is bigger or smaller but the airbag not, can you believe it? I will show you in the next...

this side is really thick ,but bear in mind this is a worn 30 years old, pair. it is far from deadstock, nontheless the new retro looks pretty darn good ,if you consider how bad they could made them judging from the previous retros.

big diff

to be fair : you are using the inner part of the retro and comparing it to the outside of the og . use a pic of the inside of an og ,that would be more fair to compare.

the uppers are stitch for stitch it seems , but the outsole is not entirely og specs ,I believe. and why I was a bit sad about it , but it is much closer ,real close minus the og translucent flaps ,they just went for the optical correctness again not for complete technical correctness. fine...

will have to do it myself then. no sweat.

check out the outsoles on the inside . best nike ever imo. and an air stab I could not find resurfaced while looking for a few 180's .👀

absolutely for you and the great disciple of airmax , I will post some ,with much pleasure . what are the remaining 4 you are searching for?

you coined how I feel in one word : free ,thanks dude really!
