go see it in person if you have the chance, the quality is nothing to rave about, buy a half size up because pleather dont form to your feet and knuckles of your feet nicely.

Hurts my soul that we've never gotten a retro of those. Quite a few dope colorways. Got a year's worth of Bounds from that era though. I'd take another retro of those in a heartbeat.

The black/white colorway was my game shoe for my 10th grade season.

The half black/half white with the purple hit on the outsole? Man I loved that pair.

No no, the all black durabuck pair with the white swoosh.

Hmmm, I don't remember an all black Solo Flight. I know there was an Air Bound that was all black Durabuck with a white swoosh. I'm gonna have to dig now haha.

EDIT: You sure you're not talking about the Bounds? This is all that released from that line...

Doh, oops. I looked at the above pic quickly and thought it was the Bounds, not the Solo Flights. I was indeed talking about the Bounds

Got my entry in for the PJ Tucker Joints. Limited to under 500 pairs, so looks like they'll be through The Better Generation only, for those interested. Hopefully quality is similar to the Stussy thangs.

PJ wearing them in-game right now.

I guess nike wanna push hype for the 89. Like why else would they make under 500 pair of these?

Stussy pairs sat everywhere and were more "hyped" than these. I'd kinda be surprised if anyone in the general public really cares about these, even with the limited run. Gotta be a way uglier and louder shoe for the masses to care, and/or have a backward swoosh and some shade of brown on it. I like the 89 Low cut and hope they continue with this quality of materials, and I just hope this is a sign that there are more like it to come.

I will never understand that phenomenon

Really want these but can't enter the raffle from Australia. Hopefully not to expensive on GOAT after the drop..

Glad it's not just me lol.

I'm glad people hate em. I'm also annoyed at this limited release crap, because a good number people that hate them will try to get them just to price gouge the next man. Wish they would have just stayed a trash shoe and no release details got out. But I aint payin resale. People who buy shoes just to resell them and price gouge sneakerheads can eat a ****.

Nike can miss me with these. Crazy how they can adorn these low top “collabs” with great quality/materials but completely trash and neglect the actual OG mid top cws. It’s so annoying and just backwards. What’s the next big anniversary for flight 89s? Hoping for a 2020 AM90 or AF1 COTM styled remastered/re-crafted anniversary campaign in the next 5 years. That’s all we can hope for at this point.
