Andre Agassi's US Open-Winning Sneaker Returns

The Nike Air Flare retro is rapidly approaching, here's a detailed gallery on the model.

Could the Nike Air Flare possibly enjoy the same amount of retro success as the recent Nike Air Tech Challenge II?

Probably not, as the shoe doesn't have the same perfect storm of special colorways, Yeezy references, and treasured on-court moments as that model. It's possible that Nike will eventually go the quickstrike route, perhaps with a US Open tribute, but not likely given that the ATCII is still the model of choice for those. With that being said, there is definitely a subset of sneaker consumers looking forward to the returning Agassi shoe–the comments section on Sole Collector as of late reflects that. mita sneakers in Japan already has this Air Flare in stock, so U.S. spots should have them in the next month or so.

UPDATE 2/24: The Nike Air Flare retro is available now at shops like Villa.
