Ha yeah, one of my teammates had the black/white pair. I remember wondering, why are they nubuck now and why do they have a strap LOL
 
What were these ones with the straps called again (the official name)? Tried to google image some but no luck. All I remember is the navy blue pair looking the best IMO.

Man, no idea. I’d guess just Air Flight?

Fascinating man, thank you for your insight/experience.

trethousandgt trethousandgt I feel like you might have some insight on this for some reason. Forgive me if I'm thinking of someone else.
I do recall it. Nike has been re issuing shoes for a very long time in limited numbers. For all we know there could have been regional exclusive colorways as well. I know shoes like the Trainer 1 have been re issued all the way back to 1990 maybe even before
 
Hey if anybody that’s willing to helps’ shoepalace has the white/blue in a size 10 let me know. PM me and let’s work something out. Supposedly my local SPs don’t have them in stock which I think is bs cause I seen them on SP shelf a couple months back and they were there collecting dust. All the sudden they don’t have them? I don’t think the employees know what I’m asking for and they seem clueless. Not about to drive all over the city for these.
