Nike Flight Lite 1991

Two classic colorways of the 1991 Nike Air Flight Lite high!

Those are divine. I wish nike could bring them back like this.

[@ogorbust1697]

Retro Mac attack makes it look promising but flight lite 2 has me second guessing lol

[@TheRetroManRandySavage]

@@ogorbust1697 Do you think we'll ever get the force 180 pumps?

[@ogorbust1697]

@@TheRetroManRandySavage never say never..!

[@TheRetroManRandySavage]

@@ogorbust1697 I hope so. I have the pressure and command force. I'd been thinking of maybe buying an og force 180 and doing a sole swap. Knowing my look, I'd pay a grand for an og pair and a few months later nike will do a retro.😂

There is nothing in this world that compares to the feeling of obtaining a DS vintage grail. Beautiful pickups man: I definitely dig it.

[@ogorbust1697]

Thanks Seth, dig it!! Ooooooh yeaaaaahhhhh

[@jasonkidd1689]

Man, these were junior year high school. Nike needs to retro those

[@MEQUPWER]

remember when these came out and a buddy got them (orange and blue) i was soooo jealous, we played school basketball and he wore them to practice!!! i wanted them soooo BAD lol. never got them!! so dope my man! love them!

[@marcjorgensen]

I love these! Made famous by Sidney Dean who ran the streetball scene in Cali. Untouchable with Billy Hoyle in the Command Force by his side

[@ogorbust1697]

Haha yes sir! Saw it in theater as a kid!

[@marcjorgensen]

@@ogorbust1697 Was a great time to be alive. I have both pair in my collection, but they are the 2013ish? retros, pretty nice though still.

[@Ab7trAct]

amazing hightops!

[@ogorbust1697]

Real high tops 🔥

[@shihd001]

I had a pair like these that had a Miami Dolphins colorway. I wish they would re-release them again.

[@Nghilifa]

I had 3 pairs of the retro's of this model. One in black/white, the other was white/citron and the last pair was black/purple. I wore em so often, the soles separated from the rest of the shoe(s) haha. Wouldn't mind if Nike retroed these again!

[@ogorbust1697]

@Nghilifa I'd love to seeit and the Maestro 1!!

[@maxwellorville5627]

Hey man, are you checking out the military blues that are coming out soon?

[@ogorbust1697]

Yep, definitely grabbing a pair

[@HightopRob]

We need to pressure Nike to get the Air Flight Lites retroed

[@ogorbust1697]

Quality og colorways would be ideal!

[@HightopRob]

@@ogorbust1697 facts

[@s13shaka]

Was there a point in time when Nike transitioned from PU to Phylon? Or is it a model to model thing?

[@ogorbust1697]

It was a new technology and a period where both were being used. As time went on, more phylon was used probably because more supportive etc

[@marcjorgensen]

Every Retro should be made with Phylon, but that is another rabbit hole to go down

[@MrTjuwi]

Trip down to memorielane fire pairs

[@ogorbust1697]

💯💯🤘🏻🤘🏻

[@GeoffSweet]

Only, and I mean ONLY thing I didn't like about these when I played basketball in these in H.S. was that their traction was not good...like, clear bottom Jordan V's bad...other than that great shoe!

[@ogorbust1697]

I guess I could see that.. I always hooped outdoors in my 6s and the concrete jungle was fine lol

[@GeoffSweet]

@@ogorbust1697 my Dad always made fun of me because he'd see me wiping my shoes ALL THE TIME...I also had the all black with white swoosh low version of them...and it was no better. Good stuff man, great score.

[@ogorbust1697]

@GeoffSweet haha yes! I did the same. Even put my aj6s on my shelf and my family would laugh but I didn't care lol
