It started with a vision in 1999, today it has become a REALITY, a Penny 4 YOU

[pennykicks]

Hey fellow Niketalkers
I started collecting back in the fall of '99. At that time I had discovered Niketalk through a friend and there was only about 1000 members. I had been abig Penny Hardaway fan since '95 and this new found hobby of collecting provided a unique outlet to display what kind of fan I really was. Jordancollectors love acquiring new releases and hunting down old styles. I figured that I would do the same thing but for a series of shoes that not everyonedesired to have nor even wanted to have. As with anything, the popularity of a player can change in a moment and after the years of injuries Penny wentthrough, most people forgot about him, but I continued to follow his journey and remained excited about Penny retros that continued to flow into the sneakerworld. So, 8 years later on Feb. 10, 2008, I took some pictures of the family reunion!

(mods, please move to sneaker showcase forum, my bad)

Damn, that's a dope collection! I really love the Black/Purple colourway.

And if I were you, I really wouldn't worry about the patent Blue/Red-White colourway, as they never released in men's sizes.

If you are interested in them, there's a size 7 for $60.00 on FlightClubNY.com.
