Nike GT Flight Design
The Media Day pair keeps the GT Flight’s base shape but bolts a pod to the heel that houses an oversized Swoosh logo. The Swoosh lights up when powered on, stretching the shoe’s profile well past the heel and turning a performance model into a display piece. Nike built the pod specifically for this AJ Dybantsa player exclusive, and the sources describe the retail GT Flight as carrying on without the attachment.
Will the Light Up Swoosh Attachment Come to the Retail Nike GT Flight?
No. Both the pod and its illuminated Swoosh were built only for Dybantsa’s Media Day pair, and the retail GT Flight will not include it.
