Looking very similar to the “Emerald” colorway of the OG Air Force 180 hightops, these Nike Air Command Force Hyper Jade definitely bring the old school “huge bball kick” vibe.
A couple of details to note on this colorway are the Air Jordan IV-like black on grey splatters on the rear midsole and the funky 90s-style artwork on the insole. I bought most of the Command Force retros and for now I’m really feeling the cut and look of the shoe. What’s crazy is that everybody slept on this round of retros. These are the type of shoes that some years down the line may be harder to get once retail spots dry up. I’m a huge fan of old school clunky basketball shoes, especially ones that come in an awkwardly huge box, and these are more than adequate! Definitely feeling the old school vibe here and I’ve already rocked a show live wearing these!
This particular pair is made with the model-standard leather and rubber uppers, a pump in the collar, and white laces. While the materials aren’t anything special, the pump is exciting. Unfortunately it’s hit or miss as to whether the pump will work in the newer retros of this shoe.
As far as fit goes, these fit a bit on the big side as you’d expect. That said, these are comfy in a basic type of way, albeit a little clunky.
