^ Similar, but I don't think so.

Can you pinpoint a general time this was? Late 80's? Early 90s?

Pretty sure they're the Quantum Force circa 91-92. There were a couple of takedown Forces in that Era that looked similar to each other.

first of all thanks y'all for your answers!

yeah i thought i may could be some kind of air force. but couldn't figure out which one. the sts looks similar, but there are no such eyelets on the pair i wore.

quantum is super close! but than again its the swoosh that kills it imo. it looks "longer" on the pics above. at least compared to the quantum pics i found on google.

must've been in the early 90's. i guess between 92 and 94

Possibly the Air Delta Force ST. Keep in mind that the pair you have on in those pics are probably GS versions which most likely had different features like no staggered and colored lace holes at the mid foot and a different shaped swoosh.

Did some more digging and I was half right. It appears to be a GS version of the Quantum Force 2.

Peace,

They also look a lot like the Base Force too, but jshortt is probably right.

It's so funny how many of those 90-95 lower tier Forces look nearly identical. Just a different line curvature here or there. Without higher res pics, it's really hard to tell what OP has.

Peace,

Believe me, I'd be all in for a Quantum Force 1 or 2 retro. Unfortunately, I don't see it happening...but Nike has surprised me before.
