If I recall correctly, there are at least six different Glove PE's made when he was with the Heat. ^Those, a white version of those, blk/platinum and

That doesn't count the couple versions he had when he was with the Sonics.

To clarify for everyone.

Gloves (Zoom Flight 9 = blk/wht neoprene upper with red Monkey Paw & wht/blk leather upper with green Monkey Paw. All PE's are Gloves.

Son of Glove = Everything else. Different midsole/bottom sole than ZF98, cushioning, Script and Swoosh toes, variety of colored uppers etc.

Son of Glove = no monkey paw, no zoom-air, no carbon fiber - probably the most important features of the shoe, but still the NIKE cursive writing was appealing to me.

Man just looking at Slacker's pic just bring back that late-90's nostalgic feeling 

.

I'm getting old son

Crazzy.
That colorway is 

 too.

Got to love some never seen Gloves with Peak shorts.

If and when these drop (quality reliant) watch people pull a quick U'ey and be all over them. Be happy when the all powerful swoosh decides they will throw us a retro of a non-tapped endorsee line. Remember when the Heat ran through the Mavs in the Finals people were begging for a Heat GP release.

I just hope that they don't kill this shoe with a bunch of unnecessary colorways.

I never knew about those. I just assumed the white and black ones were the OG colourways.

I like those black/red ones a lot. They remind me of my Charcoal Flightposite's. How did you obtain those? They're signed too?

Zoom GP Is and IIs are

 

[offbad]

sounds like in the video he's talking about the ratchet ones when he references the buckle?

or has this already been covered

 

[h-n-t-w-m-n]

He did say "the first one; with the zipper".

If I'm not mistaken, the first personalized shoe for GP was the Air Thrill.  After that, he had the Turbulence, Hawk Flight and some others before his first signature (Zoom Flight '9.
