Jordan Rising Up Introduces The Flight Speed Cushion System

Initially thought to be the Flight Plate system in a budget friendly package, the Jordan Rising Up introduces their new Flight Speed cushion system…which looks exactly like unlocked Zoom Air/ Flight Plate tech.

Not sure if these feature unlocked Zoom Air or not, but it looks like they do. I don’t see a Pebax Flight Plate so that could be the difference between the Flight Plate models and now the Flight Speed models. What does that mean exactly? I don’t know…I haven’t seen the shoe in person or tried them on so I can’t tell you what the changes amount to. Other than that, they feature what looks to be a synthetic upper with everyone’s favorite – Dynamic Flywire. Traction looks pretty interesting–it should work well indoors.

If you were interested in a pair, they’ve just landed at Finish Line for $119. Jordan Rising Up Introduces The Flight Speed Cushion System 1 Jordan Rising Up Introduces The Flight Speed Cushion System 2 Jordan Rising Up Introduces The Flight Speed Cushion System 3 Jordan Rising Up Introduces The Flight Speed Cushion System 4 Jordan Rising Up Introduces The Flight Speed Cushion System 5 Jordan Rising Up Introduces The Flight Speed Cushion System 6 Jordan Rising Up Introduces The Flight Speed Cushion System 7

  1. This looks like a revisited Jordan 14.5 which is not a bad move at all. The 14.5 was one of my top 5 all time ballon shoes that needs some props. The goofed up tagging it a .5 collection when that shoe stands in its own with the monster heel lunar set up and uber responsive fire foot. This joint has the unlock forefoot with 14.5’s heel tread across the entire shoe. Should be a dope model

  2. Nice of them to extend the heel rubber up the back of the shoe. I’ve always needed more traction there…….NOT. What’s the point? Unless it provides support, which could be accomplished with a better looking and lighter material anyways. Just looks ugly.

  3. Hi, just yesterday tried them on at Finishline didn’t know much about it couldn’t find any info on your website on the spot , anyways just from short experience in store I was so amazed by forefoot cushion system i couldn’t believe it…the only thing is I think they run large because all my UA and Nike shoes are 8 ‘ s and those Jordan’s felt like 9 ‘ s .. just my 2 cents , I love your website, & YT channel, cheers and congrats on Championship from Chicago 🙂

  4. Flightspeed? What is it?!!! How is it different so many questions and it makes me want to buy one just to try it out!

    Nah I’ll just wait for a review.

  5. I have a pair of jordan superfly 2 and one of their zoom bag popped, and since the out kinda ressembles the superfly2s,am kinda skeptical about this pair.
