“Eggplant” Nike Air Flightposite

1212 days ago - by George Kiel III - 26 comments
Eggplant Nike Air FoampositeAfter a long absence, the highly-anticipated Eggplant Nike Air Flightposite is now available at stores nationwide. Originally released in 1999, this Black/Eggplant-Metallic Silver colorway has always been a basketball favorite.

This sneaker features a zippered upper made of Posite material that provides a custom fit.  It also possesses a dynamic-fit sleeve for extra comfort and support. While we’re on the eggplant theme, which pair is better: the Eggplant Foamposite or the Eggplant Flightposite?

  • Bsceezy

    These are one of my all time favorites…still have the OG pair and am HIGHLY anticipating the foams…

    *THOUGHT* Since Nike is dropping the foamposite in an original flightposite colorway—any chance we can get a blue flightposite with ice bottoms (ala foam 1)?

    c l a s s i c NIKE
    way to stick to the basics, I guess with the impending recession(possible depression) nike is starting to go with what will definitely sell.

    A Black/Neon Royal Flightposite would be bananas. I dont know about a clear sole though just because that shoe may look odd with that. I would be straight with a black sole if they did the rest just like the Foamposite 1.

  • calikid

    I think this eggplant color stuff is whack

  • orthotic

    Never was a fan of these. However, I can see the potenial of a clear sole on it if the uppers had the right colors to flow with it.

  • orthotic

    ^^good question nikeindabutt

  • thakickboss11

    foams are much better

  • eric

    Foamposite of course maybe the greatest style…
    I think Penny has worn this eggplant flightposite only one time in game 4 of the first round of 1999 playoffs.

  • Uncle_joe

    Man I blink for a sec and they’re already sold out at Niketown and various places in Manhattan. goddamnit.

  • WHATTHE…

    Absolutily GARBAGE!!!! What the hell do people see in these seriously??!! I never liked these and never will…and I have an eclectic taste in sneakers. These are just hype…they don’t look good with anything!!! Terrible…these should never be a best seller.

  • WHATTHE…

    Classic my a$$

  • http://my.nicekicks.com/user/nikeindabutt.html nikeindabutt

    @ WHATTHE…if you don’t ‘get it’ you probably never will (period)…shoe is a work or art.

  • http://my.nicekicks.com/user/nikeindabutt.html nikeindabutt

    “OF”

  • whatthe…

    Look…I’m all for art and many sneakers fall into that catagory..but these DEFINITLY don’t!!! These are just terrible. I’ve even tried them on once and all I got to say is…what the f#@%!!! They just don’t look good…absolutily nothing about them. Garbage is the word that comes to mind.

    OMG these are str8 fire!!! But they have nuttin on the foamposites!!! Can’t wait for those!!

  • bugsbunny

    Foams > Flights

    i still have and love these but the eggplant foamposties will be better hands down

  • greenmaker24

    fomaposites r better but these r very nice

  • dbowe4415

    Seeing the royal/black Solo Flights made me want to see the Flights release in that colorway even more. But the sole would have to be black, because a clear soled Flightposite would look really odd IMO.

    And I will always and forever like the eggplant Flights more than the eggplant Foams. The eggplant Flights are my grails, and I believe they are the most unique pair of Nike basketball kicks ever.

  • lil weezy baby
