AIR MAX 1 ID "MIAMI"

Sometimes, basing an ID off of an existing colorway has less to do with being able to afford the shoe that serves as the inspiration and more to do with getting a better quality product.  I've owned the Miami Dolphin sb's, even posting them to this blog on multiple occasions, but the quality of Brazil-exclusive releases is consistantly lacking.  My solution?  Create these AM1s in a similar colorway but made out of better materials!
YEAR OF RELEASE: 2012
STYLE CODE: 433213 997
MATERIALS: The white parts are mesh, the rest is denim except the swoosh which is suede.
COMES WITH:  A special box and paper with blue and orange flat laces.
STREET VALUE: priceless

AIR MAX 1 ID "HEINEKEN"

Don't want to spend hundreds of dollars on a classic colorway?  Redo them on Nike ID for a fraction of the cost!  I always wanted a pair of Heineken sb dunks but felt that the cost of a deadstock pair was a bit too extreme.  Enter these ID'd AM1s, which while not exactly the same, strongly evoke the original.  Plus, these have denim!
YEAR OF RELEASE: 2012
STYLE CODE: 433213 997
MATERIALS: The white parts are mesh, the rest is denim
COMES WITH:  A special box and paper with black and red flat laces.
STREET VALUE: $150

LEBRON 9 "MIAMI HURRICANES"

These closely resemble the player edition colorway of the Lebron IX's that the University of Miami basketball team got to rock during the 2011 NBA season.  The main difference in the two releases is the logo on the tongue.
YEAR OF RELEASE: 2011
STYLE CODE: 469764 102
MATERIALS: The uppers are a mix of shiny leather, flywire and a carbon fiber-ish woven material.
COMES WITH: These come with flat orange laces that have the Lebron crown logo by the toe and a pull out drawer style box.
STREET VALUE: $220

LEBRON 9 "SUMMIT LAKE"

Every year we get a new purple/teal edition of the Lebron flagship model; this colorway is usually assigned the "Summit Lake Hornets" nickname.  They are based off of the uniform of Lebron's childhood basketball team.
YEAR OF RELEASE: 2012
STYLE CODE: 469764 500
MATERIALS: Shiny leather, flywire and a carbon fiber-ish woven material.
COMES WITH:  My pair came with purple lebron laces
STREET VALUE: $200

AIR MAX PENNY "ORLANDO"

Here we have a retro of an OG colorway of Penny Hardaway's first signature shoe.  This version released a bit under the radar and sold out quickly.
YEAR OF RELEASE: 2010
STYLE CODE: 313171 241
MATERIALS: The black uppers are suede, the rest is a rubbery type material (the white parts of the upper seem very similar to the sole itself to me).
COMES WITH:  My pair came with black laces.
STREET VALUE: $160

LEBRON IX "MIAMI NIGHTS"

Such a fresh colorway.  I couldn't get the 8s so I had to settle with these 9s and I'm glad I did.  Whereas the MN 8's were difficult to get, these were fairly easy to attain if you paid attention when they dropped.  They take their inspiration from the city of Miami and the vivid colors that represent the nightlife there.
YEAR OF RELEASE:  2011
STYLE CODE: 469764 002
MATERIALS: Shiny leather, flywire and a carbon fiber-ish woven material.
COMES WITH:  These come with both black and pink lebron laces.
STREET VALUE: $300

LEBRON IX "BLACK HISTORY MONTH"

Similar to Christmas, All-Star Weekend, and now Easter, certain Nike shoes typically get a special edition during February for Black History Month.  Here we get what appears to be a very straightforward colorway, with the exception of the hints of color on the interior and sole.  This is a bit of a change up from the previous years' gold-infused colorway.
YEAR OF RELEASE:  2012
STYLE CODE: 530962 001
MATERIALS: Shiny leather, flywire and a carbon fiber-ish woven material.
COMES WITH:  These come with black laces and special BHM lacelocks.
STREET VALUE: $225.

AIR MAX 90 "VOLT"

As always, AM90s are like the freshest triangles you could put on your feet.  This neon AM95-looking pair has just the perfect color blocking to make everyone regret sleeping on them!  I've seen a few pickup posts of these around the innanets - they look to be a colorway that will be tough to find down the line!
YEAR OF RELEASE:  2011
STYLE CODE: 325018 048
MATERIALS: The gray is suede, swoosh and mudgard are leather, and the rest is mesh and rubber.
COMES WITH:  These come with white flat laces.
STREET VALUE: retail.

LEBRON IX "DUNKMAN"

Every year there's a new Lebron Dunkman.  The IX's feature the dunkman logo on the back of each shoe per usual, although this year a few pairs released with a Swingman style halo around the logo.  The Swingman colorway released at the same time as these which might explain the production error, although the version I got is sans halo.
YEAR OF RELEASE:  2012
STYLE CODE: 469764 006
MATERIALS: Shiny flywire and a carbon fiber-ish woven material.
COMES WITH:  These come with gray and black lebron laces with logos and 3M hits.
STREET VALUE: retail

LEBRON IX LOW "EASTER"

Just like several Christmas shoes release for NBA players, we also get some Easter-flavored kicks.  Here we have the first Lebron IX release in a lowtop with an exterior reminiscent of a shiny painted eggshell.
YEAR OF RELEASE:  2012
STYLE CODE: 510811 001
MATERIALS: Iridescent hyperfuse material covers the uppers.
COMES WITH:  These come with gray Lebron laces with logos.
STREET VALUE: retail.  I got my pair from deadstockshoes.com!
