THE OFFICIAL AIR MAX 1 THREAD

Noticed something on these. Got two pairs of the violet dust AM1s. Pair of the left came from Mr. Porter. Right came direct from Nike. Anything look different to you?

Take a look at the panels on the upper. The textures are different and inverse. On the Porter pair, panel 1 is nappy but on the Nike pair it is smooth. By contrast, panel 2 on the Porter pair is smooth and on the Nike pair panel 2 is nappy.

Not a big deal to me necessarily, but it’s really noticeable with them shoes side by side.

Can yall educate me on the difference between a regular AM1 and an SC one? And what are yall thoughts on the SC variations? Do they fit the same?

Unfortunately, that's the standard Nike QC experience. I had the same thing happen on a pair of AM90's a while back.

SC is supposed to stand for Sports Classic but when applied today to AM1 I think it just means leather mudguard, mesh toe, and suede uppers. When I see SC, I just think leather mudguard.

All these are missing is some a ma maniere branding lol
 
The Mudguard on those Pattas looks solid. Would only scoop up them if they end up like the HUFs though.

With Labor Day just around the corner, I’m hoping to scoop up that Neutral Olive (Jedi-esque) cw on discount!
