OFFICIAL AIR FORCE ONE THREAD!!!!!

[dblplay1212]

A few years ago, I went a year without wearing the same pair. Could have gone at least another 6 months but got tired of it. Some shoes got multiple wears bc I'd wear one pair to the office and then another at night or something like that. The first 200 days were fine bc I have almost 200 on a wall but it was a pain after that. I didn't keep a log so I may have messed it up somewhere.

Everytime I've attempted to wear everything it gets annoying for me at some point.

I probably just need more work shirts but I'm much more picky about that stuff vs kicks.

It only got annoying for me because I didn't like cleaning them all.

You clean shoes after every wear? I've always felt like I have enough, I'm not cleaning those ****s.

I'm fortunate that I wear shorts and a t-shirt daily. I'm in a white tee 75% of the time so it's easy.

Depending the shoe, yeah. White outsoles or clear outsoles definitely get cleaned after every wear.

You're a better sneakerman than me lol

 

[freeagencytv]

I definitely clean most shoes after every wear....it definitely helps with longevity for your collection tho

The older I get the less I care about my sneakers looking pristine. I still want them to look fresh but I don't care enough to clean after every wear.

I typically clean 3-4 pairs at a time anyway so most of the time my kicks just go back in their box after being worn.

 

[dblplay1212]

Most of my shoes get worn 1-2 times a year, max. My heavy rotation pairs like am1 og red, am90 infrared, white on whites, wc3... I just buy 5-10 pairs of them when they release.

This prob sounds dumb but I almost never clean my shoes and if they get to the point where they look too dirty or beat then I know I’ve worn them enough to not care anymore and get rid of them. Almost like I achieved something lol. Cuz low key having shoes for a long time and they only get worn 1-5 times bothers me, I get buyers remorse. No way I needed to buy those dumb shoes

 

[206to813]

These came in the other day. Idk if paid enough attention to stock pics but in person it caught me off guard how orange they are. Sole is like a translucent orange. I haven’t worn them yet but tried on, definitely get your af1 size, 0.5 down for me.
I think I like em now that I know what color they are

I totally get this.

I rarely wear something enough to give it a real beating so I can always tell I loved a shoe when it reaches that status.

Rich white unc is that you? (Joking)

For real though I buy my 2-3 pairs at release when I know I'm gonna put a hurting on a shoe.

5-10 pairs would be dope. Wife would prolly kill me tho.

We doing Secret Santa again?

These are a cop. Going to wait for discount but that's a good looking shoe imo.

Not rich, just irresponsible.

And yea am1 og red and am90 Infrared are the only shoes I do that with but those are like my core go to pairs I wear once every other week and they only come out every 5 years so yea. This time around I got screwed bc I bought like 8-10 pairs of og reds in 2017 and ran through them but then in 2022 they gave us the bastardized version with the big bubble. So now I have to wait until 2027 and I'm down to 1 pair left ds and it's ready to break out bc my current pair is cooked.

tbh I'd be happy with just endless og reds, infrared, and white on whites. The other stuff is fun but I'd be content with those.

 

[vinnuendo]

I can't wear the same anything daily. I like too many different things.

[sharpshooter718]

Once my shoes get busted. I usually turn them into daily wear then I start hooping in them. Once they are throughly cooked I toss them out...

 

[TooOlfForThisIsh]

Looks like 11/22 for the AMM drop. I wonder if it’ll be worth it to drive to the store…

Shout out to everyone that answer my question, wasn't expecting that. Appreciate that. I understand where everyone coming from.

Next Friday for AMM Ones. Wonder if these will "sit" or will these "fake sell out". If I can get them for 150. I'm gonna go for them. Under retail would be sweeter. It is the season where deals are to be found.
