Nike Air Flight Retro?

Somebody on Niketalk launched the rumour that Nike was going to retro the vintage Nike Air Flight. Not a bad idea… Nike already retro’ed the revolutions, the air assaults, the flights 89, … not all with the same success, but especially the 89’s and a little bit less the air revs did well. I keep thinking that all these three shoes look poorly fabricated as a retro (quality-wise), with little appeal, and especially this; butchered in a zillion different colorways…. Although i am against the idea of limited sneakers, it wouldn’t be a bad idea, if Nike did for once ... Read more

Nike’s Irreverence Justified: Part 2

Like promised, every now and then I will upload some pages of the book Irreverence Justified (check that link – every so often one appears on eBay)…I know that a lot of people are just curious to see what’s in the book… I could go on for years, since the book has brought together more then 500 different nikemodels….here comes the second batch of pictures.

360 Vintage: Nike Challenge Court (1988)

If you wanted a pair of Air Tech Challenge 3/4 back in 1988 – the one’s Agassi was playing with, and you asked your mom for a pair like that, you probably would have gotten these: The poor mans air tech challenge, or just: the air challenge court… These would have been a lot cheaper back then (probably a good 40% less then the ATC 3/4) and they look “kinda” like the ATC 3/4…. the pink toe (also durathane, like the big brother and similar color combinations…. the good thing is these are still wearable. The ATC 3/4 had a ... Read more
