Very sturdy. Only thing I noticed is that if the glue is yellow it'll break and need to be re-glued after a while. Other than that they hold together really well. 

The Delta Force is actually the shoe that got me into collecting old Nike hi-tops. This is my second pair, which I wear a lot. I'm currently restoring the interiors since the inside heels were collapsed and the soles were destroyed. 

I wear mine daily and to work sometimes.

Whats your guys opinion on the Reebok Pump hi tops? I was thinking about picking up a pair since they too are a pump shoe. How's the comfort? 

Yeah there are a few that aren't too bad. But the majority are in the 500-600 range.

Man, that really irritates me. I'm lucky I have a decent paying job to have bought these on the fly like I did, I'm also lucky I came across them on eBay while doing my normal vintage Nike search. But the fact that these vermin on eBay bought most of the pairs and are trying to sell them at 2...

I wore my out for the first time. No reactions though. As far as comfort goes they feel great and the leather is pretty much the same as any 80's pair of Nike's I've handled. Also I gave the pumps a test, they both work and work very well. The pump will make the back ankle inflate and make a...

Thanks. I always figured, whats the point of spending all this money and tracking down all these Nikes both new and old if I'm never going to wear'em? Although I wish I had known that old Nike foam crumbles a few years back, I wore an Air Force V to work.. Long story short, they can't be worn...

Went over to my parents house to pick up the package finally.

I have a pristine in the box pair of the Delta Force Hi-top, and a second for wearing. Probably my favorite model of Nike.

The Command Forces were pretty hard to break in. Squeezed and shredded my pinky toe for quite a while, I had a 10.5 instead of 11 which is my actual size so maybe that played a role too. But they are my everyday shoes now and are quite comfortable.  I wouldn't mind doing it again for the...

Whats the pump housing made of? On the crumbling '89 pairs it looks like its foam, but on these new pairs they look like solid plastic.

Those look incredible on the feet! Can't wait for mine to come in. Shame about these idiots on eBay though, just saw a pair going for $1000.... 1000 bucks when you can just go to Nike's site and get them for $312.00 solid.

So excited I registered to post. Just bought a size 11 straight from Nike, I'll post pics as soon as I get them. If they are as cool as the Command Force, I'll be wearing them daily.
