Great list man (and OG examples)
Brings a tear to my eye to always see what some of these looked (and felt) like.
My list I would also add Air Force Max B, Maestro 1, Air Swift, and Air Force 93 mids.
Nike Air Raid Retro?!?! please

I still remember this commercial from 1992.
This is interesting to learn that Kendall Gill cut off the straps on these shoes.

I noticed that on the latest retros the straps are a little shorter than the OG's i.e. a bit too short(or at least in my shoe size), consequently I don't velcro them anymore to ball outdoors, otherwise my feet feel like they're choked up in a vice. They still offer more than enough support without the straps tied up though, so they still remain my go to shoes to ball on abrasive surfaces.

Air Raids were the first pear of of kicks I ever tried to buy online back in like '03 or '04. I don't remember what scam site I tried to use but they took my money.

Raids were just as popular, if not more popular, than 8s back in 93

I bought these over the 8s back then. I was a sophomore in high school and had only worn Js since the 5th grade. Raids were special. I wish someone at NIKE knew that.

Definitely more popular. They were like $20-25 less than the 8's so more folks could afford them. I remember damn near everyone in my school having a pair at some point.

I don’t think that colorway would be as appreciated in this era.
It fit in 93.

ready to sell my 2020 pair and hope nike will retro them properly in the future
i can understand why an nba player would cut the straps off. when i had my white black ogs the left shoe rubber piece that the strap came out of would dig into my foot when strapped up

I had this exact 3 shoe line-up.
I got the green-black Huaraches instead of the black-grey.
