THE OFFICIAL AIR MAX 1 THREAD

[dblplay1212]

Maybe I'm just a sucker but damn man it seems like so many people on NT are overly picky. It's ******* shoes people. The toe dents a little? Who cares? The mudguard is 1mm too thin? It's mass produced shoes, not a 1 of 1 work of art. Just put them on and wear them. Most of that stuff works itself out after a few wears anyways.

Sweet! Thanks everyone

Feb 2016 AM90 Pendleton ID. Had these remade 2 more times. Each pair had the same issue on the right shoe.

Exactly, I don’t get why everyone gets worked up. If it’s that bad just get some sneakershields and truck on.

Now this is something I would complain about looooool

I went to a local spot and saw a lot of the new models. Here's that brown pair, the toebox was good tbh, the web pics don't do them justice. I would have copped but went with the Snow Beach cw. I'll be back for these in future.

Speaking of snow beaches, anyone know of where they can be had for retail? I had them in my NDC cart and completely forgot about them to only be gone 2hrs later.

Thanks in advance.

Right? Lmao! My Denim ID's had absolutely zero issues with toe dent. I do half down on all my AM1 ID's though.

Offspring and Size? have them but they're in UK.

I was coming to edit my post but you beat me to it. Offspring has them indeed. Was hoping for a site in the US but I’ll take this over what I’ve seen on eBay/StockX

Thanks.

Unfortunately All Grey & Sport Blue are going back - same issue with unsightly toe creases some others are having. - Pictures don't really do the issue justice... it's quite a bit worse than the pictures suggest - much more obvious on side shots.

That's how all of my anniversary pairs are.

It seems like the complaining has gotten progressively worse over the last year as well. I wholeheartedly agree with your comments

@singledout shots fired

There is nothing to complain about with Air Maxes currently. Of course shoes crease, if you don't want your shoes to crease then just wear Flyknits or other knit shoes. Creases = wear = loving your shoes.

maybe that's not his foot in there...

 

[remedy444]

I appreciate the input on what is acceptable for someone else's sneakers (although I guess that is what these forums are for)... but indeed two outta three pairs will be going back & I will re-order in hopes they come out better this time. I'm one of the last people to worry about minor QC issues with sneakers, but rocking a Nokia 3310 in the toe box is unacceptable to me, especially when they offer returns on ID's.

On a lighter note the other pair came out great. Shape is on point and I'm hype about the possibilities moving forward.

quick way to remedy toe dents...

Nike used to send cardboard inserts inside of their shoes instead of the paper they stuff them w/now


back in 07’ when the air structures retrod they had serious toe denting issues due to the softness of the suede & mesh used in the build.

instead of spending more $ on sneaker gimmicks to fix the issue (i.e. shoe shields) I took a pair of the cardboard shoe inserts and cut just the toe area off and stuffed them inside.....dents fixed and couldn’t feel/notice any difference while wearing them w/the inserts inside.

for real though, dudes are overly picky now. as long as the am1 has a decent shape I’m cool. It’s a 140$ sneaker not Visvims or Alden’s

 

[jc5123]

I was just thinking of the structures while reading all these comments. I wasn’t gonna say anything but since you mentioned them I might as well.

After wearing a few pair of those toe dents don’t really bother me.

 

[nothingbutnike]

Snow Beaches, had to have em mayne. Left shoe got a slight dent straight out the box, but it's nothing.

 

[mceedecap]

So is there any info what so ever on these?
I haven't even seen another picture of these.
