Nike Air Zoom Flight 95

My parents wouldn’t really buy me too many sneakers when I was younger, but one shoe I distinctly remember lacing up for school was the Nike Air Zoom Flight ’95 worn by Jason Kidd.  I remember they were one of the most futuristic looking shoes on the rack and also one that was not as expensive as Jordans (I believe they were $95-110 retail).  I loved the shoe because it was so different at the time. The bug-eye, the checker carbon fiber and the exaggerated white foam “moon boot” midsole were definitely unique and everyone had something to say about them – good and bad.  It’s still a classic in my mind.
