The Last One

Here it is. Finally.








With his forefather.




Yes. I am dead now.

ReBound.

Finally got this colorway. A retro, yes, from 2003. I got this since OG ones that I have encountered are not wearable. (Sapatos yan, hindi trophy.)







Joining an old friend.







My dear wife, do not worry. I am staying retired, I just could not pass this one up.

The Nines

A few of weeks ago I broke out a new pair of 89s - dark cinder/cognac/fog. The last one to come off storage and into the rotation. Bought more than a year ago, I paid US$45 for these, shipped, as I have a limit of $50 for sneakers. The guy who offered it to me wanted more but could not get more since he did not have the original box. And since I am the only one who actually buys this model (Air Flight '89), he was forced to sell them to me. Today, out of curiosity, I checked the inside tags. Whoa!! NINES. Glad to have another. My previous samples are all in sneaker heaven now.







Being a cheapskate does have its benefits. You sometimes get good deals that turn out being real steals. Go ahead, be one now.

Flightless

WTH??? Here is another Nike Air Flight '89 version that will never reach our retro-challenged shores. And it looks like it will be a no show in the US as well. Damn it!





Only available via LTD Online, this white/black 89s uses a variety of materials. It has unique leather heels with embossed-like imprint, and the black toebox and swoosh are made of premium suede.

Sneaker gods, I am on my knees.
