The shoe’s design and materials guarantee comfort and support
The sneaker was first spotted on Penny’s feet in a game against the Chicago Bulls in 1997 and has a white Foamposite upper with a black mesh tongue and bootie, as well as lace overlays in black leather rather than nubuck. Along with a jewel-encrusted tongue and a little Swoosh on the side of the toe, the iconic Penny emblem is sewn on the heel of the shoe. A carbon fiber shank plate and a full-length Zoom Air system are utilized for stiffness and impact protection, respectively. Finally, the sneaker is finished with a herringbone outsole surrounded by translucent rubber.
Conclusion
Penny Hardaway’s Air Foamposite One is a sneaker for the most die-hard Penny Hardaway fans, but it’s easy to appreciate this tribute to one of his most memorable shoes. If you want to appeal to basketball purists, the Nike Air Foamposite One “Penny Hardaway” is the shoe to wear next February.
