The Amiri MA-1 "Alabaster Red" is a premier luxury skate sneaker designed by Mike Amiri. It captures the heavy, exaggerated proportions of 1990s West Coast skate culture while utilizing ultra-premium materials.
Description:
- Colorway: Alabaster / Varsity Red / White
- Original Retail Price: $790 USD
- Premium Construction: The upper features heavy paneling made from supple, full-grain calf leather paired with breathable, technical sport mesh overlays along the quarter panels and tongue.
- Signature Monogramming: Showcases the iconic Amiri "MA" staggered monogram embroidered directly onto the lateral mesh side panels. A bold, white "AMIRI" logo is stamped onto the oversized heel counter and lower midsole stabilizer.
- Skate Tooling: Designed with an ultra-plush, towel-like terry cloth interior lining, an extremely padded tongue, and fat, double-woven cotton rope laces.
-
Translucent Sole: Features a chunky, sculpted rubber midsole with a semi-translucent iced outsole compound that enhances its retro skate look.
- Fit Profile: The Amiri MA-1 generally fits true-to-size (TTS). Due to the extensive internal padding and thick terry cloth lining, the sneaker provides a very snug, glove-like lockdown. If you have exceptionally wide feet, it is highly recommended to size up to the next full European size.
- Sizing Conversion: Amiri uses European sizing metrics. For a standard US Men's 9.5, you should select an EU 42.5 or an EU 43 depending on your preferred forefoot wiggle room
