I hope Nike brings these back, not only for the shoe but for tribute for the Admiral. they bring back charles barkley ones, so they can do the same here. There are better colorways tho, I wouldn't wear that colorway.

The colors are fine. You have to understand in the early 90s that color scheme was popular.

I remember they made those for DRob specifically for his ankle support. Nice kicks.

That was the best color on the Robinson forces, but the pump in the back was gay as fuck.

The original Barkley 180s were way better. I saved up forever from mowing lawns, washing cars, skipping lunch, etc. to get those in the 8th grade (they were like $130 back then :lol ), and everybody in school was jealous as fuck.

I like how the ankle support goes halfway up the shin. Your knee should buckle in those before you'd turn an ankle.

I always had weak ankles, still do. Any ball shoes I get are high tops for sure. But those are like, huge tops.

I'd do anything to find these shoes in a size 12.

I had a pair of these when I was younger. They where pretty nice. I don't remember how I got them though because my mom and dad never spent more than $80 on any of my basketball shoes. My favorite pair of shoes where the 1990 Air Flight (I think that's what they where called) They look a lot like the solo flights but had a plastic grill on the side and the air pockets on the sole where visible. I can't even find a picture of them on line let alone a pair to buy.

I wish I had those, those were the first non-Jordan shoe that I had when I was younger. If Nike retroed those I would by many pair, I love those sneakers that much.


Oh, and Baseline Bum, I have those Air Force 180s, one of my favorites as well!
