The Air Flight 89 is officially making a comeback. After checking out the "Chicago" and "White Black Red" over the past few months, the 33-year-old basketball icon is heading into deep space this season with the Nike Air Flight 89 "Planet Of Hoops." The latest colorway to hit the '80s silhouette, it's filled with so many cool details that you really need to see to believe, so make sure you read on to take your very first look.
Boasting the exact same shape and structure as the OG, the "Planet Of Hoops" boasts a white all-leather construction that's smooth and sleek to the touch. Silver accents outline each of the panels and the Swoosh for added depth, while laser crimson and voltage purple tones decorate the tongue and sockliner, respectively, for an other-worldly aesthetic. Speaking of which, the tongue is embroidered with "The Planet Of Hoops" text, with the word "Court" crossed out, and underfoot, the black Air midsole is covered in white speckles like stars in the night sky. As if that wasn't enough, when the lights are turned down, you'll find a bunch of glow-in-the-dark details throughout for a look that is sure to turn heads wherever you go.
The Nike Air Flight 89 Planet Of Hoops is scheduled to release in Spring 2023 in men's sizes for $130. Expected to be available via Nike and select online and in-store retailers, make sure you follow Sole Retriever on Twitter and download our officialMobile App for your best chance to cop!
