Nike pays homage to Lil’ Penny, the puppet alter ego of Penny Hardaway, with the “Penny Story” Air Max Penny 1. This shoe draws inspiration from the iconic 1997 Super Bowl commercial, “Lil’ Penny’s Super Bowl Party.”
In a stylish color scheme of White, Light Lemon Twist, Field Purple, and Anthracite, the Nike Air Max Penny 1 boasts a White leather base. It’s adorned with Light Lemon Twist and Field Purple accents reminiscent of the Super Bowl ad, enhancing the shoe’s overall look. These accents appear on the tongue, lining, piping, Max Air unit in the heel, and branding. The design is completed with an Anthracite rubber sole featuring an oversized Lemon Twist Swoosh underneath.
