by John

Nike Air Max 1 Mid FB “Black Camo”

The Nike Air Max 1 is overhauled to produce a mid-top version of the the Swoosh’s iconic retro runner. While the tooling remains the same, the collar is raised to accommodate a mid-top silhouette — something of a first for the Nike Air Max family. A black tonal colorway keeps the combination mesh and leather upper sleek and stealthy, while a black and grey camo pattern on the mudguard and heel panel adds an extra dose of style to an otherwise understated design. Contrast white Nike Air logo hits on the tongue and heel complete the look. The Nike Air Max 1 Mid FB “Black Camo” is available for pre-order now through atmos Tokyo’s online store.

Mrdesplaines

id assume this would be a good time to go panning for gold??

A lot’s changed in the last three years. And it ain’t pretty.

The state has been battling a drought that has become increasingly severe and costly over the past few years. California is now "short more than one year's worth of reservoir water," according to an NDMC report and residents can be fined up to $500 for excessively watering their lawns.

The net area makes it easier to bring people to safety and commence first aid. Yep, in playtime we can also think of many party uses for the net area … but that’s just a wicked side of us!
