Was there a white/black of these that might have been a lower cut?  I can't find any images of a pair I had in high school (and I forget the name), but they had this plastic side panel, but I thought the Flight on the tongue was the triangular F, unless I'm confusing it with something else.

I still remember I got the white & black Flight 90s (not the solos) in 8th grade and my boy with the bred Jordan IVs was sweating them so much we traded shoes for a couple weeks. I ended up cutting the 90s into lowtops because they were just too high. Still... if they came out now I could rock them with some jeans. They really should retro

Recently copped these for $16. The midsoles are crumbled. So, I found a pair of Dubzeros and I'm probably gonna do a swap with those. Only midsole that would kinda fit the look of these would be the Flight 89/AJ 4/ (Dubzero) Midsole, so I had to take my chances.

 

[nickwrx]

Oops, messed up on first post. Here's the pics:

Obvs I'm gonna paint the midsole white, and use the original colors. and I know, I know, that blue air bubble looks HORRIBLE, but whatever. If I can make my shoes wearable, I'm gonna do it! One thing tho. Should I use the original outsole? That means the rubber bump in the middle will be gone, but at least the original will add more color to the bottom. I need opinions!

 

[burklinsfienest]

they cool,i would pick up.

So many memories, had all three of these during my Junior High years. 

I wish Nike would bring these back, but I'm sure they'd Gentry would find some way to ruin them.

Repped for the pics.
