The Glove Thread / Zoom Flight 98

[dankenstien88]

I dont see ye and jay rocking these or starting a movement with these like they did with some other retro kicks.


Flight 98s have a very athletic and cartoonish design thats totally out of sync with todays fashion. They are are my favorite pair Nikes ever... but even I have to admit they look real goofy when worn with anything but basketball shorts or baggy warmups/sweats.


I predict 1 or 2 colorways might command a premium if they're alittle limited along the lines of the NRG and Orlando Flight ones , but I think most of these will be passed on by the beasts.

 

[hypebeast5]

People will sleep on these for sure

I hope so because many of these retro kicks that nike releases tends to sit but you never know as RD gets closer some people will cop these but I can't the resale being high for the black/white or white/black being high so the resellers/hypebeasts may go for the more limited cws

I feel they will be slept on too especially with them releasing in October next to the lebron 11s and the normally hyped Jordans

.... yeah, especially with the cuff. no offense.

Like I said I absolutely love these shoes, your pair is . Flight 98s just dont flow with anything remotely casual.

 

[iamdakota]

I hope these dont get hyped. You're all making me nervous haha

so I wear a 9.5 in Jordan's and foams, but wear a 10 in nikes (pennys, frees, roshe, etc.)

what size should i get in these then? I have a wide foot, so a 10.5 since these zip up?

I wanna be able to ball in them.....

 

[BxxxS]

Not a massive fan of the shoe, but I do love how the black colourway always reminds me of Tyrone from the film Snatch.

Oh my God, I thought I was the only one who noticed this.

 

[dankenstien88]

^ Those are SOGs though.

 

[robertthenew]

Difference in materials? ..black vs white

 

[h-n-t-w-m-n]

Difference in materials? ..black vs white

White has the leather upper. Black has a lycra upper. I've always preferred the fit and feel of the black but it's hard to beat the aesthetics of the white.

 

[robertthenew]

I always wanted to feel the white pair so I can see what that feela like ..but im still coppibg the black

 

[mazz305]

Not if you live in South Florida.

Word.

 

[daddyrabbit251]

The black/volt colorway isn't bad.

But they have to chill w/ the prints on the shroud tho

 

[robertthenew]

Nike kills it with prints ..calm your **** nike

 

[thapointguy]

My body is ready

 

[YouGotThese]

October can't come quick enough!!!

 

[thapointguy]

I'm gonna black out the small swoosh on the top of the zipper. Looks funny with both swoosh the same color and angle.

 

[Sinner]

I need them... now.

For current Nikes that have zippers on them... are the zippers durable?
