These are not my pictures and don’t know where these stores are, but still a very nice view. Enjoy.

The shoe that started it all (my collection at least) is a pair of OG vintage Air Max 180. Bought on sale in a store in 2002. At that time ignorant of midsole yellowing of even midsole cracking and separating midsoles, I bought them because a) they looked fantastic and b) back in the days these were quasi unaffordable, with a price tag of over 150 euro’s (an that was in 1991 a LOT OF MONEY!) I picked these up for like 10 euro’s and wore them for the following two-three years. Went running with them in the rain, in ... Read more

Everybody knows these as the Air Max BW, but actually these were just Air Max 91… I guess it didn’t sound as as good as the Air Max 90 or Air Xax 87 so they changed the name in Air Max BW in 1994. The first time I posted this particular pair people were in awe. They especially like the colorway – which is in fact very nice. Aqua with black and the mesh toe box; You cant go wrong with that.

I am really really impressed by the looks of the Pegasus 25 years special edition. As a die hard vintage guy, the little flowers on the heel throw me off a little, but in general these look very very well…simple colorway, the big Swoosh.. almost like the originals The only reason I still haven’t bought them is because they are recent Nike’s… and probably they look better then they fit. Although I read some really impressive things about these shoes (being very light, being very comfy, real all round runners shoes) I really don’t feel like spending 110 euros and ... Read more
