Gary Payton Says the Nike Air Zoom Flight “The Glove” Will Return in 2012
This is exciting news for those people that have been waiting for Nike to retro The Glove. The good news is: Gary Payton recently confirmed that Nike is bringing the Air Zoom Flight “The Glove” back in October 2012. We usually find out retro news through sample or catalog images, but this is definitely a rare way of finding out about upcoming releases. Watch the video to see/hear for yourself. Special thanks to NT and TSG reader AlSneaks for the heads up.

I hope they drop the white/ university blue colorway.
Oh yeah, G-Roc, any news on those Nike Air Missions????
@Cuda – Not yet. I’m sure it’s only a matter of time.
As a sports card collector myself and fan of the game… this is an amazing post because I can really appreciate what this moment meant for you! It was great to see Gary’s response to that jersey!
Great news on the retro also!
so do you think they are going to fix it so it does not brake
I’m trying to figure out if that’s me in the picture or not, haha
OMMFG!!! Need the white ones like yesterday….
@Blue – Most folks rock them for style now… don’t zip the all the way up and hook the snap which should remedy the problem. I don’t imagine they would try and fix that a this point… fashion vs. function!
@Chris – MT said it’s you. Hahaha
I was in 8th grade when these first dropped. I literally did a happy dance when I came across the thread on NT. looks like 2012 is going to be an expensive year.
Niocceeee! And I doubt they will sell good either. Probably will hit the sales racks where I can then double up
oh yeah!! (kool aid man voice)
I loved them back in the day. I’m 33 now. Can’t wear those now and make them look cool. Thanks but no thanks. Enjoy you guys.
