TLDR: The Nike Air Flightposite ‘Sail/Black’ celebrates its comeback on 12 June 2025 - with a pre-shaped upper, iconic zip and cosmic vibe. It's available for €240 via SNKRS and selected retailers. You can find all the details at Grailify. With the Air Flightposite ‘Sail/Black’, Nike brings a true performance classic from the turn of the millennium back to the sneaker stage. The silhouette designed by Eric Avar was already ahead of its time back then and fits perfectly into today's retro trend with its futuristic foam look.
The upper is made of a wave-like, moulded foam in the colour ‘Sail’, combined with black accents on the inner shoe, zip shroud and outsole. A touch of metallic silver on the side midfoot panel provides additional dynamism. A slim zip-up system and a stretchy inner shoe support form and function - for a firm, sock-like feel.
Although the design returns almost true to the original, there are minor differences to the original version, for example in the outsole - a point that has not escaped the attention of retro fans. Nevertheless, the model remains a highlight for lovers of tech designs and nostalgic basketball aesthetics.
