Nike surprised us last year with the return of the Air Flightposite, a late ’90s basketball silhouette with a molded Foamposite upper. This week, we have our first look at a new “Baroque Brown” style coming later in 2025.
Nike’s Foamposite technology changed their approach to basketball shoes dramatically in the 1990s. The line of molded silhouettes, which provided a tough outer shell with incredible comfort thanks to Zoom Air, is back for another run of releases this year. While the Foamposite One has been the main focus so far, other models like the Air Flightposite are back on shelves, with new colorways still in the pipeline for 2025.
Nike’s initial releases for the Air Flightposite retro are already here, kicking off with the “Green Goblin” pair in October, followed by a triple-black style last month. This week, we have our first look at a new “Baroque Brown” style of the 1999 silhouette, currently expected for the holiday season. The new look pits the shoe’s molded outer shell in a dark, chocolatey brown shade with a matte finish. This is framed by black for the outsoles, zipper shroud, and mesh panels on the medial sides, while a tiny blue accent appears on the heels to complete the look.
