LeBron James has forever changed the NBA record books. Since entering the league in 2003, he’s scored the most points in the league’s eighty-year history; he’s accrued nearly every award a player can earn in the league, and he has one of the longest-running signature lines in the history of sneakers.
Now the future Hall of Famer is paying homage to the woman who made it all possible with a pair of the Nike Air Zoom Generation. The Nike AZG Gloria, first spotted all the way back in 2003 as a player exclusive, is finally coming to the shelves early next year.
The Nike Air Zoom Generation Gloria features white leather overlays that reach from the eyestay to the toe. A light pink woven mesh pops up on the side panel, midsole, and heel. That same shade of pink appears on the tongue and the classic LeBron logo on the lace cover. A metallic shade of pink appears on the vamp of the sneaker and the midsole trim.

A white leather Swoosh trimmed in white appears on the lateral pink sidewalls. Metallic silver pops up on the top two eyelets and middle eyestays. The Hummer H2-inspired reflective plate on the heel serves as a love letter to the woman who bought a Hummer for LeBron in his senior year of high school.
According to Kicks Finder, the Nike Air Zoom Generation Gloria will be released on February 5, 2027 via Nike and select retailers online and in-store. Available in unisex sizing, the retail price is set at $190. For the latest news and release dates in the world of streetwear, collectibles, and sneakers, download the Sole Retriever mobile app.
