LeBron James is preparing to celebrate one of the most important people in his life with a special sneaker collection dedicated to his mother, Gloria James.
According to KicksFinder, Nike will reportedly honor Gloria with three releases scheduled for February 2027, including a special edition of the Nike Air Zoom Generation, LeBron’s first signature sneaker.
The collection is expected to arrive around Gloria’s birthday, with two of the three releases scheduled for February 5, 2027.
The centerpiece is the Nike Air Zoom Generation “Gloria” PE, a tribute to the woman who helped shape LeBron’s journey from a young basketball prospect in Akron, Ohio, into one of the greatest players in NBA history.
The pair reportedly features a White/Metallic Silver-Real Pink color scheme and carries a $190 retail price.
The Air Zoom Generation holds a special place in LeBron’s sneaker history. Originally introduced in 2003, it launched his signature partnership with Nike. The annual pink-themed designs dedicated to Gloria have also become a longstanding tradition within his footwear legacy.
Nike will reportedly extend the tribute across two additional models: the LeBron 24 and LeBron Witness 10.
The Nike LeBron 24 “Gloria” is expected to arrive in a Pink Foam/Vintage Pink-White-Metallic Silver-Pink Grapefruit-Forest Green colorway. The release will reportedly include men’s and grade-school sizing, priced at $190 and $165, respectively.
Meanwhile, the Nike LeBron Witness 10 “Gloria” is scheduled to release February 1, 2027. Its Pink Foam/White-Pink Bloom-Metallic Gold-Hyper Pink color scheme will be available in men’s, grade-school and preschool sizing.
More than another collection of basketball shoes, the releases celebrate the relationship between LeBron and his mother, whose sacrifices and support helped make his remarkable career possible.
With the Air Zoom Generation returning as part of the tribute, the collection also connects LeBron’s present-day legacy with the sneaker that started it all.
