The Nike Air Flight 89 Low “NAI-KE” Pays Tribute to China’s Hoops Heritage

This season, Nike is paying homage to China’s rich basketball culture with the all-new Nike Air Flight 89 Low “NAI-KE.” Giving the low-top hoops shoe a clean refresh and some premium materials, if you’re looking for something that’s a little different, this is exactly what you need in your life.

Starting from the very top, this Air Flight 89 Low boasts a two-tone leather upper that’s as premium as it gets. It’s painted predominantly in light tan, but the mudguard and heel counter are both dipped in white, resulting in a vintage, archival aesthetic. Rich “Chocolate Brown” accents hit the Swoosh, liner, and midsole trim, providing a pop of contrast that’s sure to turn heads wherever you go.

But it’s not just about looks, either, as the sneaker brings in authentic basketball elements like a jersey mesh collar for breathability, an enamel lace lock, and a jock tag-style “NIKE” embroidery around the back. Inside, the insoles feature distinctive “NAI-KE” branding, tying it back to its deep connection with China’s basketball roots.
