OFFICIAL: NIKE AIR PENNY V (Release Dates, Colorway Updates, and Availability info)

I highly doubt this shoe will cost under $160 (Nike Foamposite One $220, Zoom Rookie $200) just being realistic.

still had a inner sockliner, a air max bubble to tie em into da IV's a lil bit more.

Same thing I said to RockDeep - the naming convention is not right at all. Beside the aesthetics not flowing well, is this a shoe modelled after Penny's game itself?  
 
I dont recall where from, but I believe that I had read somewhere that Penny didnt like a big swoosh on his shoes. I agree that it would look better with a bigger swoosh, but that would make it unlike Penny's other shoes which all have small ones in various places.
 
trash

leave the past in the past

this is coming from a huge penny fan who had all the pennys as a kid

nike has become a gimmick company with no real innovation

You are correct.
Penny has mentioned it several times that he does not like big swooshes on his shoes. 
 
I LOVE these. If they have forefoot zoom... these ill be my next daily hooper.

Penny also said at the Vegas event they are in talks of having Penny endorsers throughout College and the NBA.
 
Just goes to shows you that they aren't going to cancel the Kobe or lebron line after they are gone....




You can't say they are disgusting.... b/c they're not... not as appealing as his others,? yes...



and we still haven't a 360 view yet.

These are looking good so far. Let's hope Nike added some good performance features so these can be a step up from the other Penny kicks.
 
They remind me of the early shoes garnett wore in first couple seasons before the signature line. 
 
These were ugly wen I first saw them n that new pic up top aint change my mind at all. Aint no colorway fixing them unless they rehaul the whole shoe
 
Everyone saying they're a mashup/hybrid is wrong. How? The 1/2 Cents were a hybrid because they used distinct design cues from the previous models. These? They make have some influence from other Penny's, but there's no actual distinct reference to ANY of the previous models. Do they somewhat resemble the 2's? Sure. But they aren't a hybrid by any means.
 
What?


I see many inspiration in that shoe...
The icey sole, foams.
The 2s, aesthetic based.
The tongue, AM1s....
The 180 air bag, the 4s.



If the shoe performs well... I'll be buying multiples.
