It would be nice if Nike released either or both of the black/blue joints...I'd prefer seeing the black/orion blue joints release.

I am contemplating buying one of those Retro(feels funny to say Retro about a shoe that 10 years later still look to be from the future) Gold/Black Flights. but I do not know what size to buy. I read earlier in thsi thread about going up 1/2 a size. How come?
I usually have size European 44 or US 10 I think... |

I'd say go a half-size up if you have wide feet. Typically, ppl say go up .5 in size b/c they are designed to mold onto your feet by the heat you let off. |

flightposites dropping next year? that is great news. I definitely want to cop atleast one of those 2 colorways (all black or silver). The blue colorway is the hottest. Hopefully the blue colorway will release, I'll cop those for sure. Foamposites and flightposites are probably my favorite 2 lines from Nike. These shoes are super durable, they don't crease like leather.

I just received these and have tried em on.
Feels nice and looks awesome I think!
However just a couple of questions,
Are the zipper not supposed to go all the way up?
I can only pull it halfway, also I had to un-tie it a couple of steps in order to get my foot in and wear them.
Is that the way it is supposed to be? |

^You're talking about the Flightposite I's right?
And yes, the zipper is supposed to go all the way up, does it just get stuck, or does your foot get in the way of pulling them all up?
And I'm assuming you mean you left 2 loops unlaced. I wouldn't do that, I would lace 'em all the way up(even if you just do it loosely), because that way, you'll probably be able to pull the zipper all the way up, and you'll help the shoe keep it's shape better.

No it is my foot arch that prevents the zipper from going up. It appears that I have a rather tall foot for these. Here is a couple of pics:
I think they look ok even when the zip is not all the way up.
How many in here uses their Flights with the zipper not pulled all the way up? |
