Don't recall them being retroed; the OG was lke the shoe above but white where the yellow is... These were from the second era of wrap around/clip strapdoohickey things that Nike liked to throw on bball kicks after the Nike Air Unlimited/Carnivore, etc.

Nice but IIRC Kicksology booed the strap technology citing the lack of a "locked-down" feel
 
Air Zoom GP early 1999 release worn by Gary Payton. That was a Footlocker colorway i think and the other color was the White/Black.

.....as well as black/white/gold and navy/powder blue/white. The suede is amazing in person! The ratchet shroud is love-hate.
 
If I remember correctly, the rachet/click shroud locks-down sorta like how they lock-down a snowboard binding... I like the idea of the shroud, but I alsothink it makes the shoe a bit bulky...

OP- no, they haven't been retrod.
 
I was so close to getting this colorway on ebay a few years ago, then the sller deaded the auction. I was hurt cause I was gonna get 'em for like $150

I still have my navy pair that I got on sale from the eastbay catalog
 
lol. wow i must of been under a rock when these came out, i really dont remember these. the first gp shoe was official, i loved them kicks..
 
I remember having the white/black/gold pair when I was younger, loved the look of it and the ratchet part made the shoes fit nice and snug.
 
One of my favorite pair of shoes
