Nike Air Zoom Flight 98 – ‘Heat’ Inspired By Gary Payton’s ’06 NBA Championship Ring

The promotion from Nike will be real for Gary Payton as he prepares for his NBA Hall of Fame induction. Check out this new colorway of his popular sneaker from 1998.

Known by many as ‘The Glove’ sneaker, this colorway of the Air Zoom Flight 98 features a red shroud that wraps the entire shoe. An entirely black midsole ladened with Zoom Air cushioning is complimented by a red outsole and accented by yellow which surrounds the Swoosh branding on the medial (outside) part of the shoe.

Just like another new Zoom Flight 98 coming out in Lakers colors, this red Miami Heat-themed pair is inspired by Payton’s three years in South Beach where he was apart of the championship team from 2006.
