Circa 2000 Running Shoe; What is it?

Hey, Guys & Girls, I'm new to the forum and I was hoping someone here could help me determine the name of an old Nike running shoe I had many years ago (~early 2000's), that I've discarded, but would like to attempt to find new-old stock online.  I can only provide a description because I can't find any pics.  It resembled the current Air Presto, but not as chunky in the sole.  Here's what else I recall:

Colorway: Navy w/ light-grey plastic "skeleton" support around the ankle and over the tongue area.  It had a matching grey "bumper" at the toe area (like the Presto).  I believe it had a small, stitched swoosh on the top toe, also.

Material: Woven mesh

Other aesthetics:  Looked like a lace-up, but was a slip on without laces.  It was very streamlined and light.

Any information would be helpful!  Thank you in advance!

My initial thought was the Presto Faze, but the colorway of navy and grey is inconsistent with that because I don't think there was ever a navy and grey colorway of that particular model. The Presto Tremble had a navy and grey - perhaps that's what you're looking for.

Presto Cage, Presto Gym, Air Dolce, Air Max Spectre and Air Trainer Escape would be other ones to look at - if it's not one of these, if you can provide any further information I'll take another stab at it.
 
 You nailed it, mhsrunner09!  It was the Air Presto Faze based on the googling the name and viewing images.  I've attached a pic.  Mine were the same color as pictured, but with a light grey cage and swoosh instead of gold.  As you've stated, the colorway I had doesn't make sense, though.  I haven't found it anywhere online.  Could it have been an overseas colorway?  I loved that shoe and donated them to Goodwill a few years back because the fabric on one shoe had separated from the toe "bumper" and leaving a hole.  Maybe I should have kept them since the colorway is so rare.

Thanks, again, for the help.  I really wish I could find a pair of these...they were extremely comfortable and complimented jeans very well.
