Nike Air Penny II Retro Hits Stores
Posted by Nick Engvall | Sep 17, 2008 Nike Air Penny II retros have hit stores like Proper recently. They were supposed to drop a little later this month, but Proper has let us know that they are available now. These retros are straight fire, and are a must for anyone that expects to impress anyone with their collection. Add this classic Black/Varsity Royal colorway to your collection today.
Up close shots of the shoes and a pictorial view of how they should be used to school Hakeem Olajuwon after the jump. Update:Â We have just posted a new feature of the Nike Air Penny II. |

No way am I waiting another 10 years for these. I have my name and number with 3 stores just to be safe.

Them is heat right there. Glad to see Nike understands it’s a market for other retros cause the Jordan game is watering it self down. I’m tired of seeing squares buying shoes saving em like it’s a classic car or something. If you don’t rock the shoes you buy them why get em. Don’t get me wrong I got a collection too but when it comes down to it ain’t no value in a pair sneakers unless you rock em. For good example the Grape 5’s Carmine 6’s, never got my hands on em. If I did They sure would have miles on em but I know cats that swear these shoes will neva see the day or light. My question is what did you copp em for?
Sep 17, 2008 at 6:01 pm
These are droppin’ already? daaaaaamn, i gotta to make sure to get them! copping two pairs to love and hold till death do us part.
Sep 17, 2008 at 6:02 pm
What up Heat Tha 916er!? Well said. Well said.
Coming from the 916 we got the same opinion, I have to wear it if I am gonna buy it. Especially some classic throwbacks like Penny’s, Carmines, or Grapes!
Sep 17, 2008 at 6:09 pm
YESSSSSS! PYS had em last week for retail price but they were gone the next day. I want to physically walk out the store with mine to cut off S&H charges
Sep 17, 2008 at 6:31 pm
I really wanna pick up a pair, but I’m not sure if any stores in the malls or whatever will carry? Please verify though. Either that or I’d have to resort to ordering from somewhere.
Sep 17, 2008 at 6:35 pm
These shoes hit a webstore, but I waited to long to cop them :/
Sep 17, 2008 at 6:37 pm
Wow, they have recently updated I guess, for all of you who want these. I found them at http://www.pickyourshoes.com/new4/nike_penny2_blk_roy_wht.htm

Besides MJ, Penny was the Hottest b-ball star of the mid 90’s era b4 injury. I have 2 have them PERIOD.
Sep 17, 2008 at 6:59 pm

Sep 17, 2008 at 7:52 pm
man you shoulda seen what happened on pickyourshoes.com. cats was pickin them joints up as if crack and meth fiends had their own website. By the end of the day they were all sold out. GONE. EMPTY. I know for a fact I gotta get mines when they come out.
Sep 17, 2008 at 7:55 pm
Those kicks are tight! got to get me a pair of the Penny’s. Thanks Brian for hooking me up to the website.

@ Heat Tha 916er,
There is value in holding on to a pair of sneakers. Why do you thing guys hold on to their baseball cards? For example, keeping a pair of DS J’s or Pennys or some other desirable shoe from some big name athlete is as valuable as a Mark Mcguire or Ken Griffey Jr card. Not saying that will be worth exactly as much, but I got some OG sneakers in my collection that I probably wont ever wear. But maybe 20 years from now I could probably make a killing off of ebay.
Sep 17, 2008 at 8:19 pm
Got to get a pair of these.
Sep 17, 2008 at 8:41 pm

Sep 18, 2008 at 12:21 am
man these are nice. penny is definitely top 3-4 ALL TIME in best shoes. lets just hope they dont make so many colors that they lose the penny esque aura.
Sep 18, 2008 at 12:24 am
you can find the penny 4’s lying around for like 40-50 bux because they made soo many colors. that would never happen with the foamposites.
Sep 18, 2008 at 12:42 am
