I think you should trade them in for some spelling and grammar lessons

Very good Westy. Are they air max classic or some slight variation? About ten years ago i had a dark crocodile green material pair and a navy blue and white tick pair. Both material not the leathers. Now if i had a Bill and ted phone booth handy i would go back and buy a couple of boxes. Never seen colours as good yet.

Are they still out there in any retro stores?

Go to www.nikeid.com and select "Sport Culture" Then click on the AM90 and you can make them yourself a custom set in any combination you like. Not cheap mind.

Where did you get those from? I thought they stop selling that colour scheme a while ago? I've been looking for a pair for ages as well.

Woodz77, yup original air max in blue and white were a comfy pair of trainers and looked good with it but those in that picture are just pure shit, the only place they wouldnt look shite is if your sat down the park drinking your scrumpy jack...........

Weird as I have these too and I also love the 'original' Air Max-I dont see these as chavvy or shit -they are the original 90 colourway and a classic
I wouldn't get them in any other colour except the blue grey that came out in 1990 alongside this colour though-and deffo not in leather

sorry mate your right . ive just looked at the inner sole of my new airmax 360s and on it its printed with years and pics of the models and the 1990s have a block of colour round the bubble like the top pic but the 1987s have no block of colour. just a one colour sole !!

Yes Air Max 90's in the infra red colourway. £60 in the footlocker sale or did you get them cheaper westy? Can't beat my bargain though. £21.25 from the jd clearance outlet in Birmingham about 18 months ago. Classics like them are wasted on here though. It's all shox, tn's, reebok classics and other chavtastic styles
