Nike Gets Intergalactic on this Air Flight ’89 “Planet of Hoops”

Basketball may be banned on planet Earth for the time being, so Nike Hoops is taking some of their most revered footwear icons interstellar. Following the out-of-this-world Nike Kyrie 6 “There Is No Coming Back” comes this equally adventurous Nike Air Flight 89 “Planet of Hoops”, both of which appear to be part of an upcoming intergalactic Nike Basketball pack.

Like the Kyrie, it arrives based in white and black, and comes trimmed with pops of vibrant neons, reflective and glow-in-the-dark finishes. It comes constructed in a classic white leather base, with forefoot overlays and profile Swooshes completed in 3M reflective silver, while outsoles and eyelets host glow-in-the-dark properties. The liners are surprisingly the most eye-catching aspect of the pair, arriving here in vibrant Infrared, with tongues piped in Purple, and heel embroidery rocking a red and black combination. Linking the pair back to the pack’s spaced-out theme is galaxy-like flecked paintwork draping the midsole sweep, illustrated graphic insoles and tongue detail that reads “The Court Planet of Hoops”

Like the Kyires, a release date for the pair is not yet known, but you can find pairs available right now over on eBay. If you are waiting for the official Nike.com release, make sure that you’re following HOUSE OF HEAT on Twitter where we’ll keep you updated with all the info as it arrives.
