Thanks for thinking of me James =)

I would've won those Forest Green Burst, but all US eBay based aucions end at %!#% times. They went for $51 as well. I hope they crack on you Brian, you lucky bum

how safe is wearing some NDS 92 air raids? i say it was worn for like 2-3 times. its in great condish.
 
brian - only thing i can think of is a structure lor maybe a windrunner? of some sort. i dont think its an icarus/pegasus type. but thats just me.
 
yeah i have some structs and windrunners from 95 and these don't quite match either of them. I'm a bit stumped. I'm assuming it was one of their more "budget" models from the same time that wasn't as heavily promoted, but who knows... I've been searching for some scans of early 95 eastbays but the only one I found so far didn't have these. thank you for trying!

Looks like the 2nd gen. shoe, after the Air Command Force that David Robinson wore.  There was an internal pump just like the ACF, but if memory serves, the center button in the disc above the heel, is the pump, and when you turned the disc, it was like a air release valve.  As for the colorway, I guess it was either a PE or a regular general release c/w.  I know that another colorway of this was like an emerald green/black.  If any of this is wrong, please someone correct me.

Air Command Force 180 is the proper name I think???
But I've never seen that c/w... The most common c/w, of course, is the teal one, which you mentioned.  From what I was told by a fellow NTer, the button on the disc is the release valve and the disc is for switching air chambers.  The pump mechanism is by the malleolus/ankle bone.  
 
                        had these for years but couldnt find them for a while but just stumbled upon them, thought id share...

                       og 75' waffle trainers....
