Hybrids and fusions on sneakers are popular these days, making people forget about the originals that brought these modern kicks to life. Now to bring back the memory of the past, Nike will be re-releasing the pearl of their archive, the Nike Sky Force 88 Vintage, which debuted in the year 1984 and reconstructed with new materials in 1988.

The Nike Sky Force 88 Vintage certainly brings an old school look reminiscing from the on-court hoops and play during the 80’s. Its design shows the old-fashioned Sky Force and basketball logo, which is featured on the tongue. Two simple colorways are also set to be released for the Nike Sky Force 88 Vintage, which are pre-aged to set that genuine vintage look. Aside from its vintage construction, these kicks also have oxidized soles to complete.

These red/white and black/white Nike Sky Force 88 Vintage kicks are set to drop this January and are expected to be the highlight of the Nike Spring collection for 2011.
