Nike restored the constellation-covered shell, glow-in-the-dark outsole, “Remove Before Flight” tag and Penny Hardaway branding that made the 2012 pair unforgettable, then quietly changed the finish along the way. The newer version is glossier, brighter and a little different in the details, which makes comparing the two almost as interesting as the comeback itself.
