Nike Zoom Flight ’98 “The Glove"


Mark your calendars sneakerheads! The Nike Zoom Flight ’98 “The Glove” is back. During a recent meet-and-greet with the future hall-of-famer, youtuber and Gary Payton fanatic borsche28 asked Payton what his favorite signature model was. Gary quickly replied, “The Glove” and proceeded to drop one of the biggest bombshell announcements of the holiday season. The sneaker would not only be releasing to the public, but would most likely hit retailers in October of 2012. This is big news as sneakerheads all over the world have been begging for a re-release for a while now.

Kicks On Court: Dwight Howard’s D12 Celebrity All-Star Game Recap

Although an NBA season seems far-fetched at this point, our Kicks On Court column will still appear on the site in some form or fashion. Following the debut of Durant’s “Wolf Grey” Nike Zoom KDIV in Dallas, we spotted an abundance of sneaker heat in the Dwight Howard ‘D12′ Celebrity All-Star Game Recap. In detail, Penny Hardaway was spotted in the “Memphis Blues” Nike Zoom Rookie during warm-ups and later switched to his all-white Nike Air Foamposite One PE for the game. Another surprise came in the form of Gilbert Arenas’ footwear. The combo guard laced up a custom Air Jordan 6 that featured multiple Orlando Magic elements such as the black/white pinstripes and the blue and white colored panels. Additionally, Lil Wayne, who coached one of the teams this weekend, paced back and forth on the sidelines while wearing the “Binary Blue” Nike Zoom Rookie. View these kicks plus more, worn by Dwight Howard, Quentin Richardson, Earl Clark, Steve Francis and others, below.

Air Foamposite One “Golden State”


Penny Hardaway’s run started with the Magic, but it almost didn’t go down like that. Following an out-of-this world workout, Anfernee’s draft stock soared, placing him at the three spot for the Golden State Warriors. Having two consecutive #1 picks for the first and only time in the lottery era, the Orlando Magic selected Chris Webber just one year after Shaq. The Magic decided not to load the paint, and traded C-Webb on draft day for promise on the perimeter. While we’ll never know what the two big men could’ve done in the Magic Kingdom, or how Penny would’ve looked in Don Nelson’s run-n-gun system, Nike treats us to what he might have worn. The Air Foamposite One “Golden State” sees Hardaway’s most famous sneaker in the team’s yellow. Stay tuned for more images and expect these to drop sometime in 2012.
