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

[T_p_Hill]

Anyway back to the pennys, does the foam look like it’s creasing more on these than other previous retros to anyone else?

May have went with a softer foam this time around?
Would like to hear from those with older pairs inregards to any comfort difference between this run and previous releases.

Looks like a mod dropped by.

So are any random spots gettin their shipments ? Nobody in nyc walking by mom and pops and seein them?

I stopped by JJ Sneakers in Flushing, Queens. Dude only had a size 8 for I believe $260. He doesn’t know when he’s getting more. He said was supposed to get more yesterday.

Sidenote: He’s got the Citrus 7’s. He was taking the IG pic as I was arriving.

My 2nd pair from Lapstone arrived safe and sound (thank goodness UPS workers are not trying to "lose" these LOL) and now they are on their way to a good home.

 

[you go boy]

I hit on Travis lows on snkrs but I couldn't tell you what I got before that

[Confessions of Fire]

Is the home cw supposed to be more widely available than the aways?

 

[URHere]

These retailed for $135 back in ‘96. $10 more than the Jordan XI. Yet they are charging $220 for the XI nowadays. Nike is so full of **** it’s ridiculous.

Well $135 then is $254 now

 

[kidoopz]

Wishatl with the rapid shipping.. ooped my boy and Man's was geeked haha. Good feeling for real.

Now let's see if I can make good on the Homes in a sz 14 too for em..

You can't be serious

 

[OGponson]

Man I’m sick. These and the black white purp Barkley’s are like staples in my life. Man sucks for real not being able to grab em.

 

[edshoecator]

To be fair…inflation hasn’t caused Nike increases. Them mfs got dunks at $110 now.

 

[DB Cooper]

I never saw those Black/Purp '94 Barkely's in store. Not sure if any of the stores within the vicinity of me even got them. I can probably stand to miss out on the Orlando cw since I've had 2 out of the 3 retros. I'll be damned if I miss out on the home cw though.

That’s not the point, the point is if Nike was spending more to make these and sold them at a higher price point than the XI in ‘96, then how can they sell these in 2022 with only a $35 mark up but XI’s are sold with a $100 mark up. It doesn’t make sense…. Actually it does. Nike is full of ****. This is not an XI thread though so I digress.

About what?

lets be honest here. this isnt the last time either of those shoes will be retroed.

so unless you plan on dying soon youll have plenty other chances to cop those shoes.

nike will never stop retroing shoes especially the popular ones like them

nike doesnt base their prices on inflation they base it on popularity

the inflation reason was never legit anyways because nike dont use the same materials as the original shoes.

Yeah but the cost lags well behind inflation in general so there is that. Plus,they just mass produce so much more. It's not an argument anybody is making. It's just a simple reality of modern business.

 

[watermelondeity]

Products are worth what people are willing to pay for them.

 

[rcjbbp1313]

Let’s all be honest, it’s because Nike wants a piece of the resale pie. They think these could resale for 309 so they want 209 now. So on and so forth.
