Can you one up these? 1986 dunk. Crazy old school pics here!

Well not as nice (or old) as some others, but dammit... they're mine!

My original Air Solo Flights (1990) sz 10.5

My original Air Solo Flights (1990) sz 11.5 - DS

I bought the white/black's back in 1990 because a bunch of us were going to start ballin' every Friday at lunch at a gym in Chinatown (Oakland). I hadn't played regularly since I gave up the game entering my freshman year of high school. (I was a sub-six-foot post player.) I wore those religiously... but only on the court. Eventually we lost our "in" at the gym, so we moved our efforts to the blacktop at Laney College (Across from the Henry J. Kaiser Convention Center) R.I.P. They've since replaced our lovey hoops courts with tennis courts.

I bought the white/navy/yellow's last year to relive my youth... that and the sz 10.5 didn't fit any more. (I still can't figure out how I ever squeezed into them.)

Anyway, back when I played regular (pre-1982) Nike was just begining to roll out hoops shoes to compete with Adidas, Converse and Puma. Needless to say, I was a Puma Clydes man all the way back then. (I still can't remember what my first pair of Nike's actually were, but I seem to remember having a pair of nylon Cortez-like running shoes.)

Great thread!

[h2]And just think, the admins of this site said there wasn't enough interest for an "OLD SCHOOL" Forum.[/h2]

Right! :lol:

A sweet pair of kicks indeed...I am kicking myself for selling the other pair I had...were a size 10 I believe..

Honestly...I cant think of a sneaker I have sold....that make me feel better about hooking someone else up than those...(if that makes sense)...they probably mean more to you than they ever would have to me...

Enjoy... I wonder how many pairs of this shoe in that condition actually exist ?

A pair of White/Purple Nike Convention...White/Purple Delta Force ST...DS..size 10.5 would be an equivalent for me I think....And if only Nike would retro the Air Wayup....in a variety of colors . I would be happy.

Oh well..

Sorry D,

I fully intended to give you credit for hooking me up before I started typing and for some reason it just slipped my mind.

Anyway, thanks again, 1000 times over.

I'm still scared to even lace them up or try them on! :lol:

How do I post a pic? I have the pic in my yahoo email account. I've tried ezcodes before, but it doesn't seem to be working. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks.
 
I don't know how to post a pic so a fellow Niketalker by the name of Jo3 B will do it for me. This is my pair in my size!!! Got it from a local store a while ago. It's nothing special like all the rest of the beauties in this thread, but it's definitely got to be in here.

Have you stopped by "Mr. Robinson's Neigborhood?"

So I guess the admins we're right when they said no one would be interested in an Old School forum...
