The sneaker’s upper blends light tan leather with white overlays, delivering a fresh take on classic two-tone styling. Rich chocolate brown accents appear on the Swoosh, liner, and midsole trim, complementing the vintage aesthetic. A semi-translucent midsole further distinguishes the design, adding a modern twist to its retro appeal.

Nike incorporates basketball-inspired elements such as a jersey mesh collar, an enamel lace lock, and jock tag-style “NIKE” embroidery on the heel. The insoles feature NAI-KE branding, reinforcing the shoe’s connection to China’s basketball culture.

Set to release in Spring 2025, the Nike Air Flight 89 Low “NAI-KE” will be available at select Nike Sportswear retailers in-store, online, and via Nike.com. This release continues Nike’s legacy of celebrating the sport’s influence in China through thoughtfully crafted footwear.
