- Its been 20 years since the Flightposite was originally released by Nike as a part of the Alpha project and it was the natural second step by the company to release more modern and futuristic shoes featuring Foamposite material on the upper. Erick Avar was the designer of the shoe, the same designer of the original Foamposite One, that was made legendary by Penny Hardway in 1997, the Flightposite came out 2 years later and was released in a slew of colorways and rocked by many player in the association, including Kevin Garnett and Tim Duncan. The cushioning was provided by Zoom units in the heel and forefoot and interestingly enough placed within the midsole/insole, which is all one peace. As all the previous few retros, this one is also missing the medial side toe drag outsole peace, which I am not sure why Nike changed, but possibly because they are treating it now as a lifestyle shoe. Anyway, I managed to grab both pairs for around $130 after using coupons and gift cards, and I really like them.
The Foamposite Ones retailed for $180 back in the summer of 1997. I vividly remember them because it was the summer before my freshman year in high school. I wanted them but I decided to wait for basketball season to start to get something else. My mother bought me the black Foamposite Pros, which were $10 less. I also had the black and neon yellow nike total max uptempos for basketball season...the good ole days
Crazy good shoes. Foam line is 109 years ahead of time. 🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻
Good in-depth review. I own both of these as well and like them quite a bit!
Just ordered my first Foamposite/Flightposites ever- found the green ones in my size and got a good offer on ebay. Hopefully they're in good shape, I kind of like the Flightposite styling more than the Foamposites. Either way, the green is unique color especially with the holographic effect
These were def on point. Good pickups
How can I get that ,and how much does that cost
Love your vids...keep up good work...did u do vid on dmx predators...if I remember I asked if u could ? A. While ago...maybe I missed ?
Nike alters the retros to differentiate the years in the shoe .
These were hella dope. I know it was a bit darker than the og.
Yes I do like them, but miss some of the OG details for sure.
Thx for Ur simple and nice reviews.
How is the fit? U said it's snug , did u went full size up?
Nope, I went TTS and length wise they are perfect, width slightly narrow but only above the toes, over the arch. Definitely go TTS unless you are extremely wide footed.
Wish I can find these in a 14 but that's so hard to find in most shoes
Dope foams
And how much does that cost
How can I get that

No stay TTS unless you have a really wide feet
