Today I’m chilling in a pair of Nike Air Max III aka “Air Garnet III” bka “KGIII” to sneaker people. A name was change was made for obvious reasons but everything else is pretty much the same. I think we all can agree that the vivid blue gradient mesh is what makes this shoe THE SHOE. Late Pass! It just dawned on me that the original Air Max Plus TN used the exact same gradient mesh on the first model. Air Max 3’s are definitely winning in the comfort and cushioning department and now I’m torn between them and my beloved Zoom Air Penny II’s. I never owned a pair back in 98′ due to having enough black and blue sneakers with all the Penny’s I owned, but I still made sure I soaked up all the information regarding the 3’s. Being a product of the “Eastbay Catalog Era” you got familiar with EVERY sneaker and not just what blogs deemed as cool. Look out for these this Holiday season at a retailer near you.
Nike Air Max ST (Fall 09′ Release).

The weather is so nice out that I put up the basketball kicks for some comfy Air Maxes. The ST originally released in 92′ and now they’re back this Fall. Is it me or does the ST bare a close resemblance to a pair of Nike Air Triax that came out around 96 ‘.

    Those ST’s are nice – I wish the rand was grey like on the originals though.
