Nike Air Alpha Force 88

I don’t remember the first version of the Air Bound(1990?), but I did have the 1991 versions my senior year of high school. The all black ones specifically, wore those to the ground.

Those need a proper retro.

The ‘93 versions were sick too.

When did they go from using that big F logo for flight to the more cursive sort of looking word flight spelled out ?

Cursive Flight was the OG and first appeared in 89. They switched to the F logo in 91 with those Air Bounds and Solo Flights.

I had the black/white version of those Air Bound 2s as one of my HS game shoes. Good times.

Also, my recollection of the introduction of the big F Flight logo is that it came on the original Flight Lite high and the Super Dave commercials. I am 99 percent certain that’s the shoe that launched it. I had the launch colorway, black/purple, and got a matching shirt with the F logo on the front. That’s why I remember it being all new at the time so clearly.

Yeah, it was the 1991 line of Flights that introduced the big F.
 
just got a sneak peek at the Billie Eillish Alpha Force 88s in both red and white and black and white. Black and white is fire, minimal Billie branding. Passing on red and white for sure, cause I just picked up the non billie retro. Dust bag and og box are fire. Price point is $130. Take a look ya’ll. Full review coming soon!

OG sneakerhead's wet dream. Thanks for sharing.

Interesting bundle, tho. Seems like a somewhat cheaper shoe but with amazing packaging. Agreed that the black/white gets the juices going... Undecided if i'll pursue this route if that colorway releases non-billie with the upgraded materials.
