TEAM-AF-ONE VOL. 3 THREAD

heat in the last few pages.

Bizzle, very nice addition with that line-up!

that '91 release is bonkers. exactly how an af1 should look like. ace shape, two tone color combo, nylon tongue, killer lining... priceless.

the discussions in this thread are mostly very lame. most of you guys are all about hype instead of showing love and sharing info about the shoe we all appreciate, the AF1.

everybody knows that the value on certain pairs might go up/down in the future. everybody knows that each continent has its own market, so keep your eyes, ears and connections wide open.

forget about the money talk guys. i've never seen anybody in here taking their time to make some kind of a history post of the AF1.

enough of me.

none of the following stuff is in my possession. only some (quality) material i saved throughout the years.


do we need words for these?....

scrapped 'i believe' (daruma) samples

first series Hiro****inkerMark. possibly the best set of simple, yet mega quality AF1s out there. can't compare the quality to the second series. somebody post a pic of the unique box. couldn't find one.
blk (would love a pair)

that's a bit from my side. tried to keep the often posted stuff outta here. it's not at all supposed to be a 'history post', i make the official team members responsible for that
wink.gif

I'm supposed to be taking a break but I just wanted to say quality post rap and sneakz I agree with you 100%, it is a tragic shame that shoes or help can't be posted in this thread anymore without hype being brought up. Very nice pictures too I just picked up those black/flax mids I'll post pics when I receive them.
 
I wish there was a time machine :frown:

but props to Oli for the vintage pics, makes me salivate more :pimp:

cheers guys!

Paul; tbh, the blk/flax joints are the only mids i'd really appreciate owning (ok, maybe the red toe lizard as well). shame you're taking a break. i always liked your additions, no matter to what thread.

had to throw on some AF1s today after all the work on the post

I like those canyon golds nice and simple with good quality that is how it should be.

I tried to find the htm box too but I couldn't find a decent picture while I'm at work, but it's my favorite box I believe the picture is of some english council flats, I might decide to try and get the black pair one day.
 
holy @#%$....those daruma i believes samples...im glad that those posted are mostly not 12s, if not it would be so so sad...and the thing is many of those are not even registered with nike's af1 anthology...i think nike prolly forgotten how many colors they've dished out for the air force 1...if only someone had that ultimate af1 japanese sneaker magiazine...hopefully someone is willing to share with us some pics of it..
 
the first 6 pics made me faint! good stuff....i'm pretty sure next year will be the year i shave my collection down to the essentials. looking through my stack yesterday made me realize how much deadwood i've bought =(

no worries Metal! the ones posted are sample sz9s. i highly doubt they were produced in other sizes.

James, send an external HD my way and i'ma fill it for you
wink.gif
... hope you're fine my man!

prymone, noticed that many recent scored and posted 3m forces had that wicked yellowing on the swoosh. kinda like that touch as long as the midsole isn't affected.!

Jojo, lovely pickup bruv! great c/w. loving the canvas releases from that era. nylon tongue, shape and the two stitching lines through each side panel. must be from around '95/'96.

btw, that kind of 'discoloration' goes by the name of 'soiling' on most jp pages. as seen on many older black mid/outsoles. it's kind of the equivalent to yellowing on white midsoles.

i bet someone get those Forest Green 1's for mad cheap. Some of the sellers items go for dirt cheap. I got my hoop orange AF1's from that guy for like 30 shipped.

Too bad for the discoloration of the soles but eehhh, I still love em

try applying armor all or tire shine and let it sit for a while...then buff it really well.

Great pickup Yungjojo as Oli said most auctions label the discolouration as soiled but it is also known as white powder and you can simply scrub it off with a hard brush its kind of like dust that gathers on the shoe so you can get rid of it quite easily.

Very nice 3M snakes prymone

I have not seen this shoe posted on here yet but it's one of my favorites god knows why I have not put it on my wanted list yet.
