As Promised, the Nike Air Flare Returns in 2015

Nike's tennis revival continues with the upcoming return of the Nike Air Flare.

Nike won big in 2014 with their Nike Court label, which rebranded their tennis efforts both new and old.

The revival of those styles will continue in 2015 with the likes of the Nike Air Flare, although it's uncertain at this point whether the shoe will arrive under the Nike Court flag. The model was worn by Andre Agassi in 1994, and even appeared on-feet for him during a U.S. Open win that saw him triumphant over Germany's Michael Stich. This version of the shoe features a backwards Swoosh and a colorway that borrows the "Persian Violet" shade from the Nike Air Classic BW. There is no firm release date yet for this Nike Air Flare.
