Regarding basketball sneakers, Nike continues to look at some of its legacy models, specifically from the 90s. It was a golden era for Nike Basketball, with classics like the Air Flightposite, Air Foamposite One, Air More Uptempo, and more making their debuts. Speaking of the Nike Air Flightposite, we can confirm it will return for Holiday 2024.
The Nike Air Flightposite is set to drop in the coveted Metallic Gold edition. The first original colorway released in 1999; this 2024 iteration comes in metallic gold, black, silver, white, and black. Staying true to the OG, this latest retro, honoring the silhouette's 25th Anniversary, sports a metallic gold Foamposite shell paired with a black lycra cover shroud. The Dynamic-Fit neoprene sleeve, hidden lacing system, and forefoot Zoom Air with encapsulated heel Air-Sole units made the Flightposite a force to be reckoned with on the court.
The Nike Air Flightposite Metallic Gold will release October 30, 2024, through Nike, SNKRS, and select retailers online and in-store. Available in men's sizing, retail is set at $240. Keep it locked to the Sole Retriever mobile app to stay updated on the latest sneaker releases, raffles, and news.
