Hi! Can anyone identify these? Thanks for any input! Bought sometime in the 1990s...
 
^They look like the Nike Air Bakatem....obviously part of the NHL partnership back in like 95-96. They're are two other models, the Air Street Express and the Street Defender. The Bakatem looks most like the ones you posted (Bottom right of page)

Am I the only one who wants these back?

The Pro Streaks and the Air Ups are two shoes I've been trying to find for the longest.....for God's sake they gave Penny a new shoe after he's been out of the league for 5 years, and still haven't retroed the Air Ups....I don't get it.

Thanks! How on earth did you know that, impressed! There seems to be next to no mention of them online even now I know the name, is that because they weren't popular or because they weren't out for long?! Do you think there is any market at all for these - thinking of selling them but can't seem to find any information on them at all, except that page you posted! Thanks again for your help.

No prob. There are a few folks (even the op) who still have these sneakers from the Street series collabo. I remember having their Toronto Maple Leafs jersey, and really wanting an NY Rangers jersey. Didn't really want the sneakers at the time, but I appreciate them now as a novelty. I think the honeymoon ended after 2-3 years, after realizing they weren't a cash cow. I don't know what the "sneaker black market" values them at because I stay away from that nonsense. But, if you're intent on selling them, just test the waters and see what offers you get. If it were me, I'd keep them.

^^SSG (smittyk), your collection of sneakers is impressive, but even more so is the fact that they are in pristine condition after PCS moves!!! I hold my breath everytime we move HHG.

I put the Street Expresses up on ebay for a $150 starting bid and got a bunch of watchers but no bites.  I saw a pair of the Street Defenders on there for around $230 BIN but I don't know if they sold.  I've found that selling anything is all about timing and as far as ebay goes you have to take a chance and start your items low.  People want to play the bidding game to win.  Of course if you don't set a reserve(having a reserve is a good way to get a feel for what they might go for) then you can get burned like I did for these Zoom Soldiers.  Only went for $81.00.  Yuck.  I should have kept them.

Nice kicks everyone who recently posted.  Some good stuff.

Nike Air CB34
 
I hear you man.  If Nike didn't use that cheap foam crap all the OS kicks by them would be wearable.  I want a wearable pair of these so bad.  One of my favorites growing up. 
nike.....................................you know what to do with these.

^^^Nice.  Just sold my green Command forces about a month ago.  I should have taken better pics before I sold them.  Oh well...
 
^^^I never saw them before either until I found them the other day in my friends stash.  The name does fit them perfect.
