Nike Air Flight 89: now on NIKEiD

Reading is fundamental. Didn’t register to me earlier that this a 3 pack collab. According to the Elon Musk site, the pack will have snake skin

If true, I’m out.

Looks like a snake mudguard/toe and a regrind sole for the little midfoot hump.
 
I really want the OG black/grey Flight 89’s to come out. I remember wanting them in 2000 when they first retro’ed. retail was $89.99 and they didn’t have size..smh. I remember the leather being very soft.

I remember Dewayne Wayne wearing them on “A different world”

What makes you say they’re B grades ?
The rubber parts of the midsole are an eggshell color. At least the sizes from 11-13 I looked at were. Some had a blue smear on the uppers near the toe box. They all had either either red or blue paint specks on various parts of the midsoles. My initial thought was they had a recycled midsole/sole honestly.
 
The good thing is, is that usually when we see a collab of a model out the blue, general release/OG colorways may be on the way. 👀
