Nike Air Flightposite - Metallic Purple (Eggplant)

Dubbed the “Eggplant Nike Air Flightposite” for its metallic purple exterior, this Flightposite has finally been confirmed which has made many Flightposite fans very happy. Appearing very close to its original form, this futuristic looking model is oddly shaped to some, but its historical value has appeased many anticipating the retro. Unfortunately, its release is slated for December 2008 with a $180 price tag. Via nt.

  1. I've been waiting for pics of the retro for a while, and they haven't dissapointed me! These are my Nike baskebtall holy grails, and I'll definitely be picking these up later this year!

  2. ALL MY 0G BALLERS STAND UP. NOT TO MANY OF US LEFT IT SEEMS, BUT THESE GOTTA GET COPPED. 98, 99 THOSE WERE THE YEARS YO.

  3. ^^ Yep, they were. Hip-hop was alive …. These Pennys were hott and these Foams. Hott Jays with Vs, VIs, VIIs, VIIIs, XIs, XIIs, XIIIs. I miss the 90's.

    But I've never understood these Foams. They look weird but I guess they hella good for ballin shoes. I really need me some ballin shoes that are high quality and not the cheap $hit JB is using for retros these days.

  4. DAYMMMMMMMM. these are fire. everyone who is at least decent at basketball or better, knows these are a must-cop. these are probably the best basketball shoes ever because they are perfectly made for ballin'. whoever hates on this definitely does not ball. LA in 6!!!

  5. nice kicks!!! i may cop..we shall see if i have funds. i really want the cdp with the xi in december..xmas time for the lady if we are still together…may cop though…id rather nike drop the kobe pe though!!!

  6. Not necessarily a look-good shoe but an excellent ballin shoe. They look a lot better in shorts than in jeans.

  7. still remember when i was 8 and i always had my penny rookie card on hand, and i got these shoes for my birthday. everyone said they were ugly, but who gives a shit what they think!! long live penny

  8. these are of tough imma be coppin em………and for the first two people who commented…..who cares if u have da og's get outta here!!!1

  9. I never liked these… NEVER!!! But I will admit that they do hold value in the history of foamposites.

    I just wish the original foamposite came out in the color I wanted. Now I will have to hope and pray that they come back out with a re-re-retro of the sneaker.

  11. i got the all black ones and the blue pennys also u kno the foams, they cost a grip but fuck it i worked for them gonna cop these too.
