I think this is the cheapest Air Max 1s I've seen, and I don't have this cw.

adidas Originals Handball Spezial: https://www.jd-sports.com.au/product/white-adidas-originals-… My favourite pair from my order. Light violet stripes and insole, seafoam green on the heel and tongue, perfect shade of white to complement the trim, and sitting on gum soles.

Puma Palermo: https://www.jd-sports.com.au/product/green-puma-palermo/1964… Great alternative to Gazelles imo and often a lot cheaper, in a perfect shade of my favourite colour.

New Balance 2002R: https://www.jd-sports.com.au/product/white-new-balance-2002r… well balanced amount of black, gold and silver on the white upper

Salomon Speedcross 3: https://www.jd-sports.com.au/product/green-salomon-speedcros… I have 3s and 4s and they're pretty much the same, like the XT4 and XT6 but cheaper

Nike Air Max 1 Essential Premium: https://www.jd-sports.com.au/product/green-nike-air-max-1-es… Looks premium, but I already copped these 86s

New Balance 725: https://www.jd-sports.com.au/product/white-new-balance-725/1… these are dope, I don't think I have any 725s

Puma Suede: https://www.jd-sports.com.au/product/white-puma-suede/196462… clean classic cw

ASICS Gel Quantum 360 8 'Paris': https://www.jd-sports.com.au/product/white-asics-gel-quantum… I don't own these but they look nice. I only have more "retro" Asics and collabs

This post took ages. I just browsed and picked ones I liked. I have not done any price comparisons, but I know sneaker pricing reasonably well and these are good deals.

  • So many shoes!

  • +8

    What a post!

    • +58

      Yes, I cannot decide. So I bought nothing.

      • +10

        lol, I have decided already as I got no cash, so I bought nothing too …

  • +16

    When did shoes become so fugly

    • +3

      I must be getting old because I liked 1/5 that I clicked.

      • +2

        I liked 0/20 that I clicked… and that's before finding out most of these were pre-2000s releases. Shoe materials and ergonomics have come so far since then.

    • +3

      The items that end up in the clearance sale are mostly the colours/styles that not everyone is into

    • +3

      Gtfo , some of these are decades old

      • +1

        Completely, don't know where Batman has been. I think some of those Adidas shoes came out in the 60s.

        • Correct. The majority of these shoes are 20th century designs lol

        • +1

          I’m starting to wonder where is was too, then again, 60’s is probably a tad old for me.

        • it's kinda crazy that they're still in production, presumably there's still large demand.

  • this, Nike Air VaporMax 2023 Flyknit, actually looks good in Summer.

    • Most uncomfortable runners I’ve ever worn. Do not buy blindly.

  • +1
    • +1

      They're women's, so only good if you're a woman.

      • I’d wear them

        • I think they would look good on you but I don't understand women's sizes.

          • @WatchNerd: Just google "nike mens womens size table" or something.

            Agree that there are some "women-only" Jordan releases that would definitely be of interest to me if they were available in my size (M13)

          • @WatchNerd: The sizing is all over the shop sometimes, especially if you’re in half sizes hence I usually reach out to our boys RB or @G-rig for the expert opinion

          • +2

            @WatchNerd: Women's sizing is generally 1.5 to 2 sizes smaller than men's but it varies by brand. Each brand should have a chart to cross reference sizes. Even unisex sizing will be in men's but just have a women's size also shown.

            Women's shoes can also tend to be more narrow than men's but that will vary greatly by brand and shoe model.

      • +3

        Same sizing for men apparently, not sure why a man wouldn't wear these

      • +2

        are there any women on ozb?

  • air max 1 and 90s, should I be sizing up or down (usually go 10.5 for new balance stuff)

  • Looking for something to do walking on holidays in but still ok with jeans etc. Spezial a good mix? (I currently mostly wear vans, but not exactly great for on feet all day) Or the Palmero?

    • +1

      Any of them really, just pick the one you like. Pretty much all of them are more comfortable than Vans. Most lightweight and comfy would be Salomon Speedcross 3

  • +3

    Geez these are old school basketball shoes - Nike Dunk High… $72.

    • +1

      They look quite nice
      I’m sad I slept on the laney og high women’s (the one that looks like old school Xmen colours)

      • +1

        I'll sell you my size 12 women's for $500, i bought an 11 and 12

    Mods, give the OP an extra star for the effort in the post!

      Oh the irony, haha.

  • +1

    great post, ty

  • Shoe prices are getting redic… 200 for air max 1's…. you could cop on average for 80-90.

    Sad times

    • How long ago?

      • Maybe a few years back for that price, but defo in the 120 range recently. Air max 1's were always on the cheap side. They have gained popularity again but 200 for an air max 1 is just wild

  • No click and collect option.

  • +1 for the write up OP

  • Are these same prices in store?

    • Hope so, I like to try stuff on too the last few pairs of puma shoes I have had the sizing is inconsistent.

    • Yes, but sizes will vary. Just nabbed these in store in a size not available online.

  • Cheers for this, just got 2 pairs.

  • Gazelle's are the new Tiktok trend, sad Airjordan face…

    • +1

      Handball Spezial or Puma Palermos are better imo. Gazelles are classics tho, my favourite ones are the Neighbourhood collabs from like 20 years ago. I have both the black and white ones

      • +1

        The handball spezial are one of the most comfortable shoes I've purchased. Have the gazelles also, not as comfortable.

  • Cheap price for a pair of "remixed" Jordan 1

    https://www.jd-sports.com.au/product/black-jordan-nu-retro-1…

    Not my personal cup of tea, but it's as cheap as I've seen them

    • +2

      Inspired by ten-pin bowling shoes.

    Great post, even though I would only wear one or two pairs!

    • -3

      Weird flag but ok

    Great effort! Colours do nothing for me unfortunately

  • The samba wave done already?

  • don't forget about the 2.6% Cashrewards or ShopBack

  • Dam site must be getting smashed.

    Size 13 shoes I found literally went from in-stock to out-of-stock in the time it took to add to cart, create account and purchase :(

  • Air Max 1 on the way, thanks OP!

  • +1

    Rip no size 15 :(

  • got 3! thanks

  • OOS

  • No +half size… Are they all standard D size?

  • Great post OP!

  • I generally like NB but what is it with those 2002s? They are hideous looking but are they super comfy?

  • +1

    Which of these are actually good for running longer distances? I don't care about style, so ugly but cheaper, well aerated, good shock absorption, etc.

    • +1

      From skimming over the list, probably the ASICS Gel Quantums

  • I just watched a YT documentary about big shoe brands (Nike) not doing so well. Maybe we'll see prices drop even more?

    • Well known they haven't been doing well 2024. Check the share price YTD, under the helm of recently departed CEO.

  • If you’re lucky, you’ll find AM1 in Nike Outlet 40% off offer (if the model is available ofcourse)

  • If you’re lucky, you’ll find AM1 in Nike Outlet 40% off offer (if the model is available ofcourse)

  • +1 for the write up!

  • Has anyone received an email confirmation yet? Order was placed yesterday and yet to receive anything?

    • have you receieved any order confirmations? I've yet to receive any…. paypal/bank was charged

      • It's terrible. No email confirmation. Just a text to say my order was cancelled.
        Then 5 min later another text saying my order is ready for shipment. Incompetent at best.

  • I am seeing standard delivery as $7.95.

    Got a pair anyway

    • +1

      Which ones did you buy?

      • +1

        The last one in the list.
