You ever feel like shoes aren’t bringing you the same joy ? I been feeling that way for about a year now this is my first video I’m watching in a while, thank you for making everyone’s day better brother
I have sort of periods where there are no releases that appeal to me while it does to the masses. I guess most people will have periods like it. Just wear your shoes and enjoy the ones you have.
I feel that way in waves as well. Never wanted a shoe more than I did the industrial blue 4s. Had em in 89 as a kid. Skipped the two retros cause of the Jumpman instead of Nike Air. Hit em for retail was SUPER excited. Haven’t even worn em yet. 🤦🏻♂️
Very good review. I was able to get a used pair of the 2001 in 2014 and still got it. I was able to get the 2016 and now the 2024 release. I change the lace to a waxed one and it made the shoe lit.
Gatekeeping shoes that people were too young too afford is just a weird thing to me. Air force are my favourite shoe they're the most comfortable and I really want these!
I agree with this. My only push back is in the last 5 years what model do u think will be future grails. Other than the black cats. Keep in mind they don't retro sb dunks
Just copped these on a 40% discount. What a fucking year 2024 was. This year I could grab the Olive 5, BC3, Fear 4 and the '85 Metallic Burgundy 1 with massive discounts. My mind is blown tbh
Love this pair but pretty much non-existent in Australia, would love a video on the recent TN retros especially the long awaited undisputed NO.1 Grail for any TN collector the retro of the infamous 2012 TUNED AIR ‘FIREBERRY’ 🔥🍇
it’s a shoe that only real sneaker head would recognize, this is not appealing to normies that’s probably why they sat. The hype has faded in the last years for models like this. If they will remake “The Ten” like rumored it will be another story
Love for sneakers goes hand in hand with love for trendy fits for me. Not much nostalgia value for me, it’s more of the case when ppl not loving the dunks, these sneakers becomes something not common out there. When they becomes common, I’ll look for others to go with the outfit. So I’m all the way into AF1, sb dunks now.
These were like myths growing up as a kid. I don’t know if people remember but these were like a Japan exclusive, and very limited pairs were even in America back in 2001. I know Kith had the drop, but those were sitting for huge prices. The 2024 drop is the most global release of the sneaker and seeing these for the prices is something I never thought I would see. I bought mine for $184. A grail Air Force 1 for me, I can’t believe I am an owner if this color way!
I got luck I was in Tokyo the day of the drop and I couldn’t order online I though no way no chance there would be stock available But i was able to pick a pair at kith in Japan got to try 3diffrent sizes and went 1/2 a size down from my regular size cause of heal slip due to the smooth lining The whole experience makes them that much more special Beautiful time to buy sneakers
Picked a pair up in size? In York on Tuesday, the staff there said there was still a decent amount of pairs left, really happy with them, thinking I may put some pink laces in. Also ALWAYS half size down in forces, you'll notice the difference in how the toe box creases 👍
The method of retroing grails is only diluting nikes exclusivity. Alot of the General Releases are great products but the shear production numbers means none of these current releases will become grails or cult classics.
I have the 2016 pair, and I've worn it very sparingly over the years. 2 months ago they were worth $1k+ brand new and now they're $150 lol. And that's perfectly fine. It's the re-releasing of things like the wu-tang dunks and UNDFTD 4s that irks me. The exclusivity and ultra-rareness is the entire essence of those shoes. Retro-ing them as GRs (though I don't know how limited they'll be) completely ruins their mystique, in my opinion.
Yea it was nuts when I checked the 2016 pair the prices are damn near cheaper than the new one that released this year which I find crazy. There is def some difference between 2016 and 2024 pair seems like materials are slightly different quality, the shade of Tan is different same with pink on the swoosh.
If we don’t bring our culture to the younger collectors, then we shouldn’t be mad when the culture changes to something diametrically opposed to its roots. Bring them back. Destroy resell. Spread the love.
I was excited for these when they were announced. Come drop day I passed on by em. Some days I want em, some days I don’t care. If I find em on sale somewhere. I’ll probably snag em. As long as Nike gives us a fresh new shoe for every retro they bring back. I say bring back EVERY are to you want to!
These look fire. I find it kind of funny and odd that at almost 47 years old, I've never owned a pair AF1 lows. In fact, I only own 3 pairs of AF1s. The white, black, and the Grim Reaper Off-White colabs. I think these Linens are going to be my first pair of AF1 lows I buy. The white and the black pair of Off-Whites are not that comfortable, but the Grim Reapers are comfy AF so if these are anything like the Grim Reapers I'm sure I'll enjoy rocking the shit out of them.

Originally the Atmos Japan "Buta force" from 2001. Designed to resemble a Pig in line with the others in the Atmos Animal series.
These linens will look great with the right pants cut and color.

Bruh, your heat wall is legit. I had to rewind cause I got lost in the background.
Dem Kaws 4s never letting go of my eye 😅
Mannnn I had these in highschool. I forgot about them. 🔥

@@mathewdobson3904 Not yet.
@@mathewdobson3904 just wait until their stock goes even lower and they'll make even travis scott shoes easy to cop
How are the AF1s most comfortable im confused 😂
@@MB-vk8cv wym they rereleased several SB dunks this year
Won the 2016 raffle for the KITH Miami grand opening but couldn’t go scoop them up. Happy to finally have them in the collection!
This colourway is so dope!

One of my favorite pickups of the year! Super excited when I heard they were releasing. Appreciate you thoughts and on feet!
These sold out almost instantly in India. Fortunately, I able to pick up this pair of sneaker history. Dope pair
These are definitely in my top 5 on 2024
I just ordered mine from GOAT

These go extra tough. Definitely added a pair to collection. Keep taking shoes out of boxes pimp! Always a calm and cool viewing experience.

A grail Air Force 1 for me, I can’t believe I am an owner if this color way!
here in germany they are for sale. only paid around 85$
I was able to double up yesterday here in LA when I went to Kith’s opening for their Malibu flagship store! Felt like 2016 for me
I got luck I was in Tokyo the day of the drop and I couldn’t order online

Beautiful time to buy sneakers
Only sneaker shop in Japan with a line for retail was ON shoes by they way
Picked up a pair for $85 at the Nike outlets in Chicago
Damn I paid $146+ for mines on GOAT
Dope review bro 😍 #Subscribed
I always go down half a size in AF1 but when I got a women pair (I'm EU) the half size down was still a little on the large side.
Nice review bro 👌🏾 a banger as always 🗣🔥
Great review, just ordered a pair on SIZE , thanks 🔥🔥🔥
Great video as always brother

Sneaker of the year so far for me

I love the AF1 silhouette I just hate how they age.
The pink ruins the shoe for me

Great vid I had to get them as soon as I saw the release date i now have 4 pairs of them so they will last me a good though years
Got these and they are 🔥🔥🔥🔥
Good fit for Khakis or cargos , but the color a little bland. I rather opt in for the wheat AF1
Recent low financial results have led to them to re-target the old skool crowd to re-purchase their grails…😅
Best shoe release in June. Period. Can't wait to see what Nike brings back. Great video! Thank you!
If we don’t bring our culture to the younger collectors, then we shouldn’t be mad when the culture changes to something diametrically opposed to its roots.
Bring them back. Destroy resell. Spread the love.
I have a 1992 pair of air force 1 highs Purple with a white bottom
Anyone know what shoes are on the wall left of the Yuto Sbs?
Asics Gel-Lyte III Homage
Do they come with extra laces ?
Nah
5 star ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ review. For once you didn't do the AF1 dirty
I was excited for these when they were announced. Come drop day I passed on by em. Some days I want em, some days I don’t care. If I find em on sale somewhere. I’ll probably snag em. As long as Nike gives us a fresh new shoe for every retro they bring back. I say bring back EVERY are to you want to!

eyyyyyy these are fire
I never liked AF1's, they give skibidi Ohio toilet vibes. Kinda orthopedic sole ahh kicks.
Picked up 2 pairs
I want these bad
THE CPFM AF1S ARE WAAAAY BETTER
To each their own I think those are a little overhyped personally
@@sneakernomics5547 all hype sneakers are over hyped lol thats what makes this fun BUT the linens are very boring
Bussin
Hello!
Hey hey thanks for watching ❤
Not a collab...
Yeah slip of the tongue
Where’s the dancing?
the shoe is called linen but has no linen on it at all typical nike BS
I still have the cork lebron 12s made from actual cork. Kinda wish brands would release more crazy stuff like that just because they can
@@symptomofsouls I have an ASICS shoe hta has some cork in the back its cool
@@GORGON_OG Think I saw a picture of those, I like that type of stuff
Nice shoe not a shoe I would wear though
Hi
Hey bro ❤
LOOKS LIKE A GR = FAIL
😂 Air Force ones are straight trash 🗑️. They look like orthopedic shoes. 😂
i am an older sneaker head andf i say ewwww these are ugly basic and over rated... BOMMER HYPE for sure
