love af1's but my feet just dont feel comfortable at all in them. sucks to be me. how do you keep your toeboxes from creasing, they are crisp as hell. sry guys creasing has become somewhat and obsession for me lately.

i got these on today:

even after all these years, these are still one of best feeling shoes ive ever laced up. super light yet great support/protection all around. some minor lockdown issues but still a top notch sneaker. i shoulda bought multiple pairs dammit!

I have 2 pair of those PRs. I unDS these on PR day a last month so they still new. I do have 2 sets of insoles in em and it makes them much more comfy and they don't crease as bad.

I'm def hating on you with those Pennys lol that price you got em for was unbelievable

2 insoles huh. i might try that. i have a pair of af1s that i only wore once because they were killin my arches for some reason (i have flat feet, usually not a big deal until i actually bought a pair of af1s). im gonna break em out after work and see what i can do with em.

they are the af1 lows, all black leather upper (the typical style leather), white midsole with the translucent dark bottom sole. if i can get these to be comfortable, ive got my eyes on the tectuff af1s. they are HARD.

ps i will be back in vegas in a couple weeks, if those pennys are still there i will def. cop again.

xi's copped this weekend. tried them on and i had to have them. the footlocker survey popped up when i was ringing up the 2nd pair, called in the survey, got 15% off the 3rd pair. 1 pair went to my bro, the other a long overdue bday gift for a buddy. very nice sneaker, cant wait for the white/black cw

Picked these up yesterday. :buttrock:


I wore these on Saturday and they literally fell apart. The sole completely detached from the rest of the shoe and a bunch of foam started falling out. I had to throw them out.

They've been sitting in my closet for years and I think they dry-rotted.

There wasn't really much left of them to save. I guess considering how old they were I got my money's worth out of them.

I've still got a pair of hiking boots that I bought on clearance for $30 in 1996 that are still going strong. I think I'm going to wear the treads completely off before I have to get rid of em.
