Nostalgic Kicks: The Kicks on Cards Weekly Recap

Kicks On Cards is back again for a look at several classic sneakers, this week featuring the Air Jordan VI, Flight 89 High and Reebok Kamikaze II. Also, bet you can't guess who's wearing the Total Max Uptempo.

After taking a look at both the riveting 90s and the perhaps-departing Scaramento Kings in two separate KOC features last week, this time around we'll be taking a more era-friendly approach to things. Several greats from the 80s can be seen below, like Terry Porter leading the break in the Air Force 2, and the oft forgotten Air Flight '89 High seen on Todd Lichti. We're also taking a skill-lenient approach this week, as perenial scrub Fred Hoiberg even makes a cameo.

Enjoy this week's Kicks On Cards Weekly Recap below, and as always, we had to includea classic print ad as well. It's hard to beat the Reebok Kamikaze and a little trash talk from Shawn Kemp.
