Penny Hardaway is a retired American basketball player who has inspired a series of Nike shoes. The latest in line up is this Nike Air Penny Sharpie Pack consisting of two models; the Foamposite One and Air Penny 6.
The Nike Air Foamposite One Sharpie is inspired by a pair Penny wore back in 1997 with the same Royal Blue colourway. Back then, he used a black marker pen to colour in the grooves of the Foamposite so they would meet the league standards. Shoes had to be covered in a certain percentage of black to be allowed in the league, so Penny’s ingenious creativity meant he could wear his favourite kicks.
The second silhouette in the pack is a brand new model dubbed the Air Penny 6. This sneaker takes design elements from previous shoes, namely the Penny 1, and mixes it with modern technology.
Nike Air Penny Sharpie Pack Release Date
Both pairs in the Nike Air Penny Sharpie Pack are scheduled to release on 4th July. You can find all the retailers for the Foamposite One here, and for the Air Penny 6 here.
