I wasn't sure why I had been browsing around the site lately and there was no talk of the 2012's anywhere. Talked to a few close friends and they said these three colorways would be dropping shortly.I think they look okay but I would have to see a few more color ways first and hold the shoe to really make an opinion. I thought the '09, '10 and '11's were all unique in their own way but I feel like these look a little like the '11's in some way.

I actually think these are ok, not really feeling the 360 air unit but the upper is nice. better then 09,10,11's

AIr Max 2011s are bulky and uncomfortable. I gave my pair away because they hurt my back after wearing them a few times. That stupid paper thin tongue made way too much lace pressure also.
Doubt I'll be getting any of these. At least the 2011s had decent colorblocking. The shit above is just.....UGH.

Finally a 2012 thread!
I was really feeling that mango/peach color, guess I'll be awaiting more CW's for men.... :smh:
I'm glad to see that others on ISS are as excited about these as I am. :up:
In my opinion, these are a successful blend of the AM 2010s and 2011s. The toebox and silhouette are of the 2010s, while the inner mesh and fuse tech used on the tongue and other parts of the shoe are from the 2011s.
It's unfortunate that the grey/mango colorway is for women, because I would have loved to cop it. Sadly, my feet are too big to fit into them.
There are a lot of great colorways (like the red/volt CW on this page) releasing over the upcoming months, so I'm looking forward to copping at least one of them.
horrible shoe and colours :down:
They're,in my opinion,ruining the Air Max label...
Yeah, I'm going to pass on these for the first time in years. Nike is getting worse and worse IMO. Craftsmanship, materials, colorways, have all gone way down while the price keeps going up. $180 + tax for a recycled Free upper and a 360 air unit? No fucking thanks. I'm stocking up on the 2011's at the moment and won't be getting any of the 2k12's.
2009> 2011 > 2010
2012's don't belong on the list.
2012 looking great IMO, I won't think twice about grabbing a couple of pairs.....Once they start hitting the sales racks :up:
Retail for AM's always way too high, I can't see paying retail for any.
