Flight fives and air bakins....controversy?

[redd spyder]

aye whats good niketalk? I was on nike making a pair of nikeIDs with the flight fives and i had on my pair of bakins and that got me thinking....wasn'tthis the same reason the OG bakin's were remade? The air was on fire and it looked some arab or jihad writing(excuse my ignorance)? what do yall think? Ami reaching for something that isnt their or is it the same thing?

don't get your panties in a bunch, it's only the internet.

The Bakin's had to be changed because the Air looked too much like Allah, and that is offensive in that culture.

NO MAYBE THEIR IS A MIXUP IN WHAT I WAS TRYING TO SAY...WHAT IM SAYING IS....WASN'T THAT THE SAME REASON THE OG BAKINS WERE RECALLED? BECAUSE OF THE FLAMED"AIR" ON THEM? THE FLIGHTS ALSO HAVE THAT FLAMED AIR LOOK TO THEM...DOES ANY1 ELSE SEE THE SIMILARITY BETWEEN DA TWO OF THEM? OR IS IT JUS ME?

The Flight Fives do not look the same as Bakin's. Sorry to burst your bubble.

[redd spyder]

Am i like not saying something the right way? why is everybody saying the same thing? IM NOT SAYING THEIR THE SAME SNEAKER OR SAME LOOK OR ANYTHING OF THATSORT! im saying the flaming air is their and it looks the same and it isnt being recalled like the bakins were...and its been spotted on other sneakers as imtold such as pippens 2

I see what you're saying unlike everyone else.

-shrug- maybe it's just more subtle.

 

[daglove20]

I kinda see what you mean...it sucks more that there's no Kidd logo on the tongue anymore.

 

[superfly]

the bakins air haves more curves in it, but the flights dont. so they are not the same...............
