Do you have any platform sneakers?
Yes, I do:
Platform Sneakers.jpg
I used to own the OG City Sneaks platforms from Payless, the white ones with the leather upper and blue polka-dot insole...those were the best platform sneakers of all time, and I really miss them a lot. So cute, so comfy. Also had a really cool pair of Jeffrey Campbell "ZOMG" super-high platform canvas sneakers, in white.
Sadly, both of those got stolen from me by a vindictive ex who changed the locks when I was out of the house. She even trashed the City Sneaks the one time I let her borrow them, and I never forgave her for that. Lesson learned: never, ever loan out irreplaceable shoes, even to people you trust... :(
I think the current best mainstream platform sneakers are Keds Triple Kick, but they still aren't as good as the best from the heydey of that fad. Not a fan of platform Converse or Vans, they just look...off. Oh well. Fashion tastes come and go. I'm sure platform sneakers will make a comeback someday.

Air Max Plus TN is by far my favourite...so many fun colours, lots of SE with unique materials. Also one of the very few models with a "Stardust" colorway (particular type of iridescent rainbow) that I'm very fond of. I personally also find them much more comfortable than any other Air Max model.
I'm also fond of 270s and 720s. The former I'd definitely buy more of if I had the space, the latter I wish they'd come out with more colorways. They're pretty unique and unlike wearing anything else I've tried; super comfy.
Don't super care for 95s, I feel like Nike usually doesn't utilize the silhouette in an effective way with the available colours. They tend to lack an interesting amount of contrast. 97s are pretty good, although the lacing system is infernally annoying and I absolutely hate messing with it once it's done. A bit tight at the ball of the foot/toes as well. The 98 is a really nice base model, but it doesn't seem to be that popular, and Nike doesn't put out too many of them...which is a shame. (Love the shiny 3M reflective bits on both.) Same with the BW, that line's pretty much been abandoned. A pity.
I want to like 90s more, but it's hard to escape that "chunkly dad shoe" image...plus a lot of guys wear them too. It's still a very classic model though. Wish they'd focus more on putting out well-designed new colorways instead of doing apparently everything under the rainbow (plus the actual rainbow for Be Trues). There's just way too many options with 90s and most are pretty mediocre.
The one-off model Air Max 2016 was a very good silhouette. Really love that design, advanced for its time too (full-length Air unit!). It reminds me of the Shox Current, with the big swoosh on the toe. That was a very pretty model back in the day too.
Oh...and the Air Max Tailwind IV. Pretty interesting model, not too popular or common, but it definitely had promise. Shame it never went anywhere. They also skimped on production costs with that line, can readily tell they're more cheaply made vs other Air Max.
None of the other Air Max models interest me at all. The 1 used to be half-decent, but lately they changed up the materials and now it's too similar to the 90. Was better back when they had the mesh toe. A little more unique that way.
Do not like Air Force 1 Low - too common, boring, everyone has them (or several). Not enough interesting colorways. The black ones are worse than the white ones (imo). AF1 Mid/Hi are alright, although I'm still puzzled why people don't fasten the ankle strap.
I have one very rare pair of AF1 Hi and a custom pair of AF1 Low on the way. Nike ID has like a daily limit on the number of orders for that model, so I got lucky or something. Looking forward to showing everyone what an actual good AF1 looks like vs their boring same-old AF1 Low whites. (which probably aren't very white anymore cause everyone trashes them and it's horrible and ugly)
Used to have a beautiful pair of Shox Current in the pink/white/silver colorway. I really loved those, but eventually ended up donating because they just weren't comfortable anymore (a size too small for me). If a pair of shoes can't last me through one shift at work without my feet hurting pretty bad, they're not much use to me anymore...no matter how cute they are. I just don't have shelf space for that sort of nostalgia these days.
...I genuinely do regret getting rid of them sometimes, though. Just an absolutely perfect model. Have never seen another shoe come in such an attractive color scheme since then. I miss them. If only they'd been a 9 instead of an 8, I'd very probably still have them. Oh well...
My AF1 Hi. The backpiece is rainbow spackle, and the midsole has an iridescent "pearl" effect, so they shimmer a bit when the light's at the proper angle. Also, it's hard to see because they've faded/yellowed over time, but the outsoles are translucent, so originally they had that same "icy blue" look that some types of Jordans do (e.g. Jordan 11 Concord). Someday I'm planning on applying Sea-Glo to try and bring the iciness back. That stuff's not cheap though.
This is a Premium colorway (PRM), and it came out in early 2016. There was a matching identical version of AF1 Low released at the same time. As far as I know, both models were exclusive EU-only releases and could not be acquired in the USA unless someone resold to you directly. I lucked out and got these imported from Britain. That region-lock plus the age and not many produced in the first place means they're very rare these days. I've only seen another pair once in my life IRL and once on this forum...I think Meny's girlfriend had a pair, or something like that.
