Thank you for the compliment, i really appreciate that.
You know something, for some strange reason i was never able to get into the half cent model.
Although i do like the Royal pair, and the all black, i just felt like i could live without them.
I am still surprised with myself for picking up a couple pairs of the Zoom Rookie model.
At first glance i really liked them, but looking back in hindsight, i wouldn't have bought them.
The sole discolors really bad, and the comfort to me at least...is underwhelming.
Yeah bro good luck with building your collection, time will definitely be your ally.
So will eBay and craigslist ! Lol
If you got some good friends that collect...that helps too.

The rookies and the 1/2 cent will take some time to get the appreciation they deserve. All foamposite based shoes that aren't pro/ones/flightposites seem to go that route like the ultraposites and sig players.

Give it like 6 - 7 years, 1/2 cents will be in demand. I love all my pair to death, with the blackouts & sparks being the only 2 cw's I didn't get.

1/2 cents are dope. I will rebuild that part of my collection
Rookies LOOK dope. Comfort sucks tho.

My girl got me the silver 1/2 cent for my birthday, will never sell those ever. I've worn them to death and they can take some serious physical abuse while still looking VNDS. I like every color that come out especially the royals but they sold out of those by the time my bday came around. They really did a good job taking what made each penny shoe special and coming up with a completely new shoe.

Not my collection, I saved a pic of someone else's collection, but i believe the order is accurate...
I think that collector was only missing the Nike Air Lambaste, which Penny wore in the 94 all star game i think? Here is a picture of them...

If my memory is correct, he wore the Lambaste in this all star game.

He wore the III for only 19 games during the 97-98 season.

Not so much a small fit, more like the shoe just doesn't fit my foot correctly. I've got a pretty normal shaped foot so idk..

I need an insole to put in mine because the comfort on them is bad. I was standing in them for a day and my heels were feeling weird as I wore them

More than anything, I am hoping Nike will bring back the Air Penny IV in it's truest form! What we got in 2005 or 2006(?) was just pain cheap and unappealing on Nikes part.
