Ordered two pairs and send one back. Dodgy quality very dodgy. The pair i kept i had to clean to air bubble with acetone to remove all paint stains on the air bubble. But overall great shoe!!!

Try a color catcher sheet thing.Using stain remover to remove my curry stain from my curries has caused mire curry to bleed into my curries ruining said curries which will now become beaters dammit.
I may machine cold wash both shoes just to seen hat happens. Itll either fix it or it wont.

They are used to pull a color out of something when something bleeds. I used them on a pair of og reds (pre-hoa, still too painful to discuss) that bled and it worked but they never dried after being bled on so idk if that makes a difference. It may be harder if the stain sets in dry.

paint on the air bubble is the least of our problems with Nike! But I agree it's a great shoe...

Susan's are so nice looking. Would def dress them with something for casual friday at work.
Happened to me a few times with the black skulls. It’s just the foam under the lining that folds over. I fixed it by trying to pinch the foam and pull back into place, similar to when the string on your hoody pulls through and you need to feed it back out lol
As above, undo your laces when you slip them on. Or use a shoe horse - overkill for a pair of sneakers

I washed a pair of signal blue AM1s and it bled a ton. Had to go back and use a toothbrush to get the bleed marks out. Then it bled again. Eventually I got most out but I wouldn’t recommend the washing machine.Using stain remover to remove my curry stain from my curries has caused mire curry to bleed into my curries ruining said curries which will now become beaters dammit.

Is a shoe horse kinda like a horseshoe?
Sorry, I kid. I realize it's just a typo. Actually I've used shoe horns with sneakers before, just to avoid putting too much pressure on the back of the shoe. Maybe overkill, but better safe than sorry.

As promised, here are my denim/suede IDs. Took about 2.5 weeks to receive. Nice quality. Not great but pretty good. Love the leather insole. The swoosh was what kept me from ordering at first but it’s not bad in person. Overall I’m pretty happy with these.

Will these be dropping in the EU?

Just got the exclusive access notification. Voted for AM1 but can't say I actually like them now that I've seen in pics, well we'll see how they look in person.
Only if this was done for the Atmos Elephants of 2017...
