nike F'ed it up by changing the nike air to white on the heel instead of the usual black.
They also changed the laser blue parts on the under sole to zen grey.
Why Nike why, you did the infrared vintages perfectly by not changing anything and making them look old.
These also look old but you changed them from the original.
These are one of the best 1's i ever saw.
I really don't understand what all the nagging is about.
The Jordan 1 is one of the most boring sneakers out there.
These colorways finally give the shoe some heat.
I only like the 1's with the og colorway and the Jordan 2 sole, because the Jordan 1 sole is just to boring.
Jordans to me are a reflection of futuristic designs, of times to come.
The Jordan 1 is the only one of them all that just says old school, while the rest are forward thinking.
When i saw these i immediately thought of the 4's white cement and breds and also the raging bull 5's.
So stop whining and love them for the og colorways of Jordans beyond the 1's.
This is what the 1's needed to get some attention.
@IgotthatFIRE @john_dough @Born2fly Amen, fashion keeps gettting retroed just like the kicks we buy.
So if you truely wanna rock em go old school.
These days there's nothing you can't wear.
Solong as you stand by your style it will allways be cool.
It's allways the daring people that impress us, watch Kanye West.
He wears leather skinny jeans and leather skirts and dress like t-shirts.
When you here about it you think it sucks, but when you see him rocking it standing by his choice you see it looks cool.
I like the baby and toddler versions more then the womens and mens.
The Red is brighter and the translucent soles are solid.
This gives a nice twist to a milked icon, makes it look fresher and still has the same vibe.
First time the detail loss is a good thing.
@bodaga You surely aren't a jordan head, since every jordan head knows it's called elephant skin. And it's never painted on, it's always carved out of the leather only fake ones have painted on elephant skin.
@wcwktb @Lilmr81 I wore my black cement 3's from 2011, maybe about 25 times and they look all butchered, chipped and cracked soles, and the elephant skin gets murdered very quickly. And i'm a real sneaker head with 80+ pairs and i'm real carefull with these babies, still they're dying fast.
@jpolo23 No they will release them in 2 years again with nike on the bottom too.
And 2 years after that they will color the air unit back to white and make the elephant skin a softer grade. So if we wait another 6 to 8 years we will have all originals again.
;p
@StephenDensmore @TheSneakerGuy @James Lowery I think you mean Varsity Red 4's, since they never made any Fire Red 4's those are the 3's and 5's.
Super looking colorway, never gets old.
It's a tribute to the nike air mariah pr and that was a tribute to the nike air 180.
Loving this colorway, even when the shoe on it's own is really boring.
What nobody seems to notice is that they changed the air unit from yellowish/ white to grey. Which i absolutely don't like. They also didn't change the jordan to the original nike on the bottom. So they're still just a changed up version and still not 100% orgiginal. Hate nike for this mindfcuking
@LittleDavis You mean Varsity Reds, Fire Reds are the 3's and 5's.
Jordan 4 doesn't have a Fire Red. Somehow everybody calls them Fire Reds but if you look for the colorcode on the box it clearly says Varsity Red.
@DesmondDiggaDezDavis @84 @JulianScott @thebeaner @EyeMrSway the 2010 has cheap looking materials, thats what i meant the other retroed og's had closer looking materials. If you don't believe that i own em, check this site i'm even selling them so i can get the 2012 vintage versions http://m.marktplaats.nl/a/kleding-heren/schoenen/m625403374-nike-air-max-90-infrared-2010-deadstock.html?c=9b26ed2a557deff636f4f8b9c5b7a618
What except the logo makes it dark knight?
If they were all black it would have been more like the dark knight then it is now.
both need more grey
they look like poo on a stick thrown into a pile of puke
Love em, want em, need em
The only thing that is missing are the holes near the lining and it could have also used fat white laces.
And then they should be laced with only 4 eyelets so they are even closer to the original.
Overall the best MAG custom i have seen so far, a perfect so to do this with, because the sole of the shoe allready looks MAGish.
Also does the hight of the shoe help.
O yeah what also would've been nice is a white strap from a air force 1 through the heeltab.
I wanna buy some air force 180's myself to do this too.
He should have kept the wing grey with black speckles.
Then he should have made the upper eyelets blue which are attached to the wings, just like the upper eyelets on the original.
The logo should have been a yellow jumpman with a black line around it.
It should also have the letters flight beneath the jumpman in the force fonts also in yellow with a black surrounding line.
The colors are off on the custom the yellow is to dark, should've been more neonish.
The grey on the heeltab is too dark.
He should have put the original nike air logo on the heeltab.
The sole is totally wrong, the black part should have been white, the yellow should have been black and the white surrounding the air unit should have gotten the yellow speckled neon treatment.
He should've also made the lower netted part of the tongue black.
If he would have done it my way, it would not only be better looking but also would have had the same color blocking as the command forces.
Hop, Hop Gangnam Style!!!
Hahahahah can't ever understand there's adidas lovers when you see what nike and reebok have to offer.
The eyelets look the same as on the jordan XX8
