Pearl white or black backtab?
it moved in norwalk. was on west ave by the library now its on westport ave. great dress shoe spot
grey. wore them today, way tighter than the all leathers i got but they're breaking in.I was gonna consider roughing up the leather parts on mine but I’ll see when I get them next week. Is your twill grey or moon fossil?
my last pair came in like this in the front only. like the outsole they put on was just a weeeee bit smaller lol**** my *** the black patent leather option is gone again
I was gonna reorder the pair I did before because the midsole is warped
Ahh, I went with moon fossil.grey. wore them today, way tighter than the all leathers i got but they're breaking in.

Love seeing all the giants fans. Y'all gonna have to have an AF1 ID meetup at the playoff games
This palette was made for the Giants. But y’all gotta come up off of the SBB color blocking.
Where do these current ID options rank in all things AF1 over the past 10 years?
Top 5 and not 5 imoWhere do these current ID options rank in all things AF1 over the past 10 years?
Man, if these had olive, navy, and some more tongue tag options I’d be taking out a second mortgage.Leather Quality: 8.5/10
Options: 8/10 (missing Navy, etc and needs suede or 1 more material)
Shape: 9/10
Construction: 9/10
Overall: 8.6/10 (for me)
The toe could’ve been rounder and certain colors available in patent should’ve also been available in standard leather. Would’ve been nice to have more outsole color options as well. But these options are the best I’ve seen in years.
I was also around for that 05-06 era, and while I still have a few of those pairs, I’ve never felt like I needed more. After seeing the shape on some of the early patent pairs from these options I wasn’t impressed. I made one pair just to have at least one of each option. But after getting these in hand I might need more. It’s probably best for me that black and purple patent are sold out.Top 5 and not 5 imo
Gumbo is up there
Nigel options were also very well liked
I loved last year's suede/ snake options as well.
Other notables are probably CPFM
Safaris (which were dope)
I don't really get into the Pendleton's but I'm sure those rank highly from year to year for various collectors.
Adding to post since I really liked Aquarius Snake 's break down
Over the last couple years people have been clamoring for more patent AF1s. Like some of the other collectors here I was around for the 05/ 06 AF1 vs Bape run.
Instead of giving us retros it seems like Nike just said **** it make your own. While not every color was made available there was definitely something here for everyone.
Not to mention the options were made available for damn near 2 months.
Even outside of the patent we got some very solid leather options that really set these ID options apart.
Like just about any Nike ID there are some hits and misses. I probably ordered 20 pairs of IDs in total and maybe half of them will be kept while the other half is likely or is already in the process of being returned.
I'm still surprised at how many leather joints I ordered, but overall this is probably my favorite sneaker related thing this year.
I've said it before and will say it again one day we are going to look back on this era like damn that was fun.
Moar ids….
NDC messed up my pair….. fml and now the options sold out. But the messed up the check to a cream instead of pink smh. They got it right on the Dayumb box sticker but when WIO they messed up. I’m TIGHT. Don’t get me wrong. They still tight but they off.
mnt solefly pair came in also tbh after they messed up my starfish pair I’m sour n wanna return Boffum.
