The Nike Delta Force Line of the 80’s is still one of the most historic mid range basketball shoes ever created. From their competitive pricing to the clean color ways and of course air cushioning this low profile shoe was designed for the aspiring power player. Fast forward to Y2K and the Delta Force received a modern makeover. Features included a combination full grain floater and smooth leather upper, lateral and medial side double stitch pattern for increased support, lateral side ‘jewel’ swoosh, lightweight durable PU midsole, encapsulated heel Air Sole unit, aggressive solid rubber outsole with optimal motion forefoot flex grooves, internal TPU midget shank plates and herringbone traction pads. If you have the earlier Delta Forces then these are worth a look if you can find them. Take a trip back below!
