810 days ago - by George Kiel III - 31 comments

Earlier this week, we showcased one of the infamous Nike Basketball retros in the form of the Nike Zoom Uptempo V. If you recall, players such as Jason Kidd made this sneaker popular. In addition, check out today’s Kicks On Court in which showcases yet another Nike retro basketball sneaker that was made popular by the aforementioned player among others.

In a losing effort against the Los Angeles Clippers, Denver Nuggets power forward Kenyon Martin laced up the infamous gold Nike Air Flightposite. This particular Flightposite colorway originally released in 1999, yet it retroed in 2008. In addition to Jason Kidd, players such as Kevin Garnett, Penny Hardaway and Tim Duncan wore this sneaker. Click here to view the gold Flightposite plus other kicks worn by LeBron James, Carmelo Anthony, Baron Davis and others.

LOL to JIZZLE. Them joints are painful for the first weeks or so. I didn’t know this back in 99 and I was pi$$ed, but then I was like “Daaaamn, I love these!” Still my fav ballin joints of all time (huaraches a close second).
Since these players get new shoes every game, they will never know the pure essence of Flighposite-ness.
