Collab sneakers with a show stamped on them are usually a gamble. Either it’s logos and text you’re sick of in two weeks, or it’s so quiet you wonder why the name is on there at all. The Nike Air Max 1 ’87 x Stranger Things (IM3906-100) sits in the second camp, and here that’s a win.
Just a clean fit
White mesh base. Light grey suede across the middle. Then deep burgundy suede on the toe, over the mudguard and round the heel, with the Swoosh in that same burgundy. White laces, white midsole with the Air unit, black trim on the sole. That’s it. No print down the side, no characters, no year in neon. It’s an Air Max 1 in a colour you don’t trip over every day: that dark red runs warmer and deeper than the standard red AM1s, and against the light grey it reads expensive.
Styling is easy. Burgundy is one of those colours people think is hard that actually goes under everything. Black cargos, baggy jeans, grey sweats, all fine. Want to do something with it, pick one thing in the same tone, a beanie, a hoodie, your sock band, and leave the rest neutral. Just keep it off anything that’s already red or orange, or two warm colours start fighting and you lose the effect the shoe is built on.
Eleven shops, and a 255-euro gap
This is where you pay attention. Solezilla.com tracks thirteen listings across eleven shops, all in euros, and the spread is wide: from 130 to around 385. GOAT sits lowest at 130, then StockX at 164, Klekt at 203, and a long middle through Collect District, Sneaker Ask and Mentastore in the 229 to 235 range. Up top, The Attic, HYPENEEDZ, Geturbrick and Sneakeregeer climb toward 290, with Stadium Goods at 385 at the ceiling. Shopping in dollars? There’s one listing, StockX US at 220. No pound offer on this pair right now, so UK buyers should add shipping and import.
The Hypescore is 80, band ATOMIC, so the demand is real. But with this many sellers the question isn’t whether you can get it, it’s what you pay. That GOAT 130 is the floor, though at a gap this wide it’s worth checking the size and condition before you get excited.
So before you buy: line up the Stranger Things listings, drop your size in the filter, and see what’s left. With 255 euros between the cheapest and the dearest, ten seconds of checking pays for itself. More Air Max 1 colourways sit right next to it. Then hit Grail or Bail.
