THE OFFICIAL AIR MAX 1 THREAD

[2fnquik]

And look at what they did to us with that cancellation drop fest. Now that pairs are turning up the asking prices are so high and let’s not forget the people bidding $245. Why would Nike pull such a **** move?

Because THIS..

It's OLD news but just look at the way things have been going....MORE "hype" releases, more "collabs", retail cops are damn near impossible.

I don't know how many of y'all have GOAT, FC, SG, and StockX accounts but I always get the emails on release dates as if GOAT and StockX just "dropped" a shoe....WTF, are you F"ING KIDDING ME...HOW is it possible for a RESELL site to have a FSR on release date....F'ING HOW....well duh, the inventory is being sold through the resell sites now instead of the standard sites....a FEW of us get through here and there....that keeps "hope" alive.....JUST like the lottery bro, the lottery wouldn't exist is you have didn't have 8 billion people spending $1 dollar for a chance to win $1mil.....sure, they'll a winner for the $1mil that spent a dollar but the lottery commission just made $8bil....

That's just MY take on it...

 

[2fnquik]

That’s insane. I’ll pay $400 for another pair of royals before I pay that much for those smh

Say less....

Yep. Makes sense. It’s all over

 

[a-friend]

I’m not paying more than $120 for any pair of AM1.
Outside of inflating retail prices my wallet is closed.

Yep that’s been driving me crazy that all these sneakers I can’t get are immediately available. Getting sick of those Goat and StockX emails flaunting the stock they have. Especially with StockX charging both the buyer and the seller the 3% fee. Double dip much d icks?

So what happens when most of the middle and lower class folks who buy the majority of the stock can’t afford resell? These green and orange anniversaries aren’t worth $200 out the gate. Maybe in a year or 2 when you can’t find any and you say screw it I’ll overpay. But to pull this crap, shock drop them, cancel most orders to generate hype and then watch the price jump... it’s insulting at best and bush league.

For what it’s worth I just ordered a couple daybreaks from asphalt gold this week, came in 2 days. Haribo gummy bears included for some reason lol...

I’ll enter the end raffle I suppose, likely L, then hope for a legit us release, and if i miss...look to the FTL remix pack..Then .will be envious of the pics that will be posted here

 

[mikey23]

I need the orange pair for sure, greens not so much

 

[streetballa2311]

I’ll take the orange pair to. I’ve been wearing my air max 1 more than my yeezys and stuff. Such a clean shoe

 

[1978S]

Orange pair > Green pair.

The shade of green is just bleh.

 

[eddiemcnasty]

it really is the most versatile summer shoe in my collection.....can rock with joggers, denim, chinos, sweatshorts, mesh shorts all while maintaining a clean silhouette

 

[1978S]

Still DS. From Benny's stories...

 

[seandon23]

Just copped the orange am90s so I’ll be going after those greens. Hopefully not a lot of hoops to jump through

[Fozz]

That orange works so nice.

 

[streetballa2311]

Are the orange pair coming out us?

 

[KnowTheLedge]

No official date for the US. Maybe on the 30th.

 

[urn0tlike]

I need both

 

[streetballa2311]

sigh.....

 

[geist 6one7]

Nike:

 

[KnowTheLedge]

We still haven’t gotten release dates on a few other shoes. Like some of the air max 90 color ways that Europe and Japan already released. I’m considering ordering overseas just to secure these pairs. I was trying to avoid over retail prices from now, but Nike’s Been on one as of late. Some of y’all lucky to have connects overseas

 

[TheEnricoG]

Are all stockx orders delayed?

 

[Leebro]

Are all stockx orders delayed?

For me it took three weeks after payment to receive the shoes a couple of days ago shipping from US to the UK. I have placed another stockx order (diffused blue 90s) which seem to be moving faster.
