Its on the front page of the winter of 1998 Eastbay. Another Tuned Air bball shoe was the Air Tuned Uptempo, very similar to this shoe actually. Sorry I can't post a pic; my scanner doesn't work!

I got the year wrong. Did the Air Force Max Plus ever release in any color other the white/Black/Red?

Tuned Uptempo.... i don't think i remember that name at all.

If you could even post a half-decent cellphone pic of either or both, it would be much appreciated.
Thanks
