THE OFFICIAL AIR MAX 1 THREAD

[snkrfollower]

I feel like some of y’all are Seinfeld characters, where there’s a lot of talk about a lot of nothing. It makes for great entertainment. Please don’t take offense to this because I won’t get into World Wide Web feuds. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Well, we gotta do something to pass the time while we wait for our table at the Chinese restaurant

I think if I could put in my retro-request, it would be of some of the 1998 SC Leather styles. There were so many released back then, but if I could chose a few, these would be it: 604005-163 (Varsity Red), 604028-171 (Maize), 604005-146 (Navy Blue), 604028-131 (Forest Green), 604028-104 (White/Grey Miniswoosh) and 604028-161 (Burgundy). Ideally (since we're fantasizing) done in nice thick and soft full grain leather (not the paper-thin split-leather with PU coating and backers that everything is nowadays). I may just have gotten myself slightly aroused.

All good over here too.

To be clear I don't think they suck. I just nike could do a little more to get them closer to 100%. I also accept that someone like me is not the target customer for these.

One of the pairs I seen in person had mismatched suede that brushing didn't help. You have more experience so I can accept that there's a good chance that brushing would fix those. Nike should probably be checking and brushing them before giving them to the customer, but hey.

Do the suede bags that come with them match the suede you put on the shoe?
Curious if you seen the suede on a pair of Common Projects? A coworker had a pair on last week and they looked pretty good. I've been meaning to go check them out to see if they're nice in general or if he just got a good pair.

The bags suede is different. Not long haired.

Yes, thanks, Modus... except the third picture (604005-146 - Navy Blue) - that one is the picture below. I don't really care about Jewels.

There might be something wrong here then, wrong box I guess?

I think those Jewels are the 604028-105.

I'd also gladly add this Grey/White tumbled SC Leather beauty from 1998 to the desired retro list (sorry, I don't have the Style Code for these):

No, actually I wrote it wrong. You're right - 604005-105 are the Navy Jewel (from 1996). The ones I was looking to post (and posted a pic of) are 604005-193 (Royal Blue) from 1998. My bad. Sorry for the confusion.

AM1 nerd-level overload?

Other things that would bother me....

Stitching spacing change after the turn

Stitching going left at the end

Bespoke Ind got stitching issues too

Again that's just me. The owners of them probably don't even notice these things.

dont torture yourself like that man. i am sure that there are very few sneakers in the universe that dont have an imperfection or 2.

The crumble crew welcomes you with open arms, crusty yellow bubbles, saggy compressed midsoles and the fear of God in you that every step you take is your last. Enjoy it my friend!

Is there anywhere else I can find these in a womens 11.5/Mens 9.5?

You need an 11, not a women’s 11.5 if you’re a men’s 9.5.

Thanks. Not sure what I was thinking with the 11.5

Here’s my Fall 2015 Bespokes (been nearly 4 years this fall since I made these damn things) to show materials upclose; sidepanel in vesuvio suede and thick canvas swoosh outlined in pebble leather.

Wanted chenille swoosh but they didn’t offer the material, but the canvas still looks dope since it pops out pair almost like chenile.
