Official Nike Air Max Penny 1 Updated - 2022 Retro Coming!

Wish I could have owned the OG’s. Only time I ever saw them was on top of a shirt rack in a display case at JC Penney.

I actually remember when JCPenney sold $100+ Nike shoes in the '90s. But they stopped carrying that stuff by the early 2000s. I believe I saw the Penny 1 at JCPenney during that decade. Most younger generation peeps wouldn't know they sold stuff like that during that decade because either they weren't born or too young to know.
 
I have an old pair of blue 1/2 cents with the blue jewel swoosh that are too small now and unwearable. Used some acetone to remove the Nike checks and will probably use the Laces too for my SS pair. Going to use infinity barge cement to attach the Velcro to the swoosh.

Now I wish I did this with my Penny 6... I feel stupid as hell now lol.
 
Since Nikes current basketball has been lackluster, they gotta drive hype somewhere.
 
a video of previous penny retros. the 2000 retro was insane. closest to the og. at a 170 price tag nike gotta do better. atleast make the the ****ing air chambers the proper color nike.

The air chambers have been my biggest gripe. I LOVED my 2000 pair. I do not know why they keep making the air chamber blue or black.

Facts. I remember dragging my mom everywhere looking for the Columbia xi's and finally finding a pair at jc penny.
 
I still think one day they will retro them as remastered and charge 200 lol

makes no sense why they cant make the air soles bigger. the air bubbles on the air max 2009 were gigantic.
