Kinda crazy getting these Air Max Tuned retros in yesterday. If you were around watching shoes 20 years ago, you’d know that this ‘roach’ colorway sat on sales racks for (literal) years. YEARS. I saw them at shops in Sunset park up through 2007-2008 and still had little interest in scooping them up. The white on gray and other colorways sold out LONG before the roaches so it’s kind of crazy to watch them sell out (and sell for resale) this time around.

I owned the white pair for YEARS…super comfortable and cushy. I sent in a pair of broke down Air Max Pluses (I believe) and this is what Nike hit me back with (yes, that’s my OG pic). Anyway - glad to have copped the roaches for a bit below retail. Time to make some new memories…
