FAQs
Are these shoes suitable for playing basketball today?
While they were originally designed for basketball, their technology is dated compared to modern performance basketball shoes. They are best suited for casual wear and lifestyle use.
What materials are the Nike Air Flight 89 made of?
The shoes are constructed with a combination of leather and faux leather, providing a blend of durability and classic appearance.
How should I clean the 'Team Red' colorway?
Use a soft brush or damp cloth with mild soap for cleaning. Avoid harsh chemicals and machine washing to preserve the color and material integrity.
What is the primary color of this trainer?
The primary color is 'Team Red', accented with white details.
What does 'mid-top silhouette' mean for ankle support?
A mid-top silhouette covers the ankle area, offering more support and a secure fit compared to low-top shoes.
Where can I find other sizes?

Troubleshooting
Shoes feel too tight
Try wearing them with thinner socks initially. If the issue persists, consider if the size is appropriate or if break-in time is needed. Consult sizing charts if purchasing online.
Color transfer to socks
This can sometimes occur with new, brightly colored footwear. Wear darker socks initially or allow the shoes to air out for a few days before regular wear.
Creasing on the upper
Creasing is natural with leather and faux leather materials with wear. To minimize severe creasing, use shoe trees when not in use and avoid excessive bending.
