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

I ordered a pair of dolphins from eastbay a few days ago and Eastbay sent me a pair of Red eagles instead. Problem is... one shoe looks like it was a display shoe which came with a plastic shoe insert inside, instead of paper. It's also a little dirty and the red looks even more faded than the other shoe. Do eastbay even sell display shoes?
They might have sent you a shoe from Footlocker, Foot Action, or Champs, since Footlocker owns all of them.

Since they share inventory with Footlocker, Champs, maybe a display from one of those stores? Good come up on the red eagles, but crappy luck on getting a faded display shoe.

These DO NOT GLOW this much...Nike glow has been seriously slacking. I had to hold mine literally over a bulb for a minute to get minimal glow, same think with my volt Revis's,
********. Either make it glow bright, or not at all.
 
Is the box label of the Dolphins or Red Eagles? Maybe someone bought them and did a switch-a-roo? Kinda weird they sent that when it's sold out long ago. Did Eastbay and them even sell the Red Eagles? I don't even remember. :wow: Sorry about all these ?s. I'm sure Eastbay rep would like to look into this error.

Please send us a private message with your customer number and order number so we are able to look into this further for you at that time.

Wow, that luck.

I hope eastbay doesn't make you return them. If you didn't want them you'd have no problem trading those for dolphins + cash. It's a nice come-up that I wouldn't have told a soul about.
 
Well its not like eastbay can make him send it back. They prolly gonna ship him out a pair of dolpjins and let him keep the eagles too

so far i havent seen a shoe in person from nike where the glow impressed me....
 
Haha gotta love south Texas!
How far south? (I grew up in Menard in the hill country)  For a hot blooded kid I had to find me some snow so I could stay cool half the year, better for sneakers tho I admit ha.

Also I saw the red eages cuz I was doin a set at a sneaker con that day and or the one after I forget, saw a couple of those and they were breakin more necks than anything there.  was pretty crazy and I immediately regretted sleeping on 'em.  Initially told myself people would stay locked on foams from the penny line n these would sneak out unnoticed, so much for that haha.  So after that I made exceptions to go out of my way.  Took me 3 trains to get to a spot in the hood to cop my dolphins (last sz 13) but retail flat (no tax in MA on the first $170 spent on a shoe I believe) and just a lil time... very very happy.  Later got the suns for under retail shipped and I'm very happy with them.  I would like to find a way to recolor the bubble because there's just no way I can have orange laces (which I like) in them and not have them look odd against the gold in the bubble, don't even know if that's possible tho, haven't looked into it.  I'm on the fence between the Memphis/Tours as the Tours I've seen around $120-25 shipped and if the Tigers get there I'll be making a tough decision or two.  Passed on the cloaks, glad ya'll like 'em but they spark way to specific memories of a ****** ford taurus we had as a kid.  But hey, glad ya'll got 'em n love 'em, no doubt.  

I've said it before but I seriously hope they just let this line run for a while since there's no reason to make a VI anytime soon if there's still room to explore with this model.  I dunno if they will tho, I'm hoping they just made too many is the reason most of these CWs have sat for a spell.  ATLANTICS PLEASE

Wore these to the gym once and in the mirror I can see people checking out the shoes.  The chameleon twist is definitely a neck breaker.  And it's cool because they're sold out everywhere in my area (GB, MD) yet I have yet to see anyone rock them.
 
does anyone know how much the magic colorway of the penny v's are going for at outlets? (or if theres even any there?)

Haven't seen or heard about any of the Penny V's making their way to outlets yet. I have seen them marked down at a couple of shops such as Shiek and Jimmy Jazz.

I finally picked mine up from Foot Locker after using ship-to-store on release day. Box was a little beat up. I also got my NDC order. Box was perfect and I chose the NDC pair to stash because they looked in better shape.

I tried on the Foot Locker pair, and honestly I was worried after reading reviews of how they runs small. I have wide feet, but these fit pretty well. Nice and light kicks.

The glow fades away really quickly, but I took a few long exposure pics.

lol I wish. Eastbay isn't that nice of a company. Afterall I have to pay extra just to get orders double boxed or they will come in a plastic bag like the red eagles did.

The box label is of the Red Eagles, which Eastbay didn't even sell any pairs of. They were limited to select HOH's and Jimmy jazz had them online after release date.

@NixonJames where in MA do you live? I assume in the City somewhere bc you mentioned the train? I live in Framingham and didn't think any stores in MA stocked ANY of these *__*. All the stores I called (numerous in Boston and even spots all the way weat towards Springfield) said they weren't getting the model.

I copped Cloaks and I'm SICK I slept on the V's. Would love to add 2-3 more c/w's to the collection.

Im thinking about going to a pet shop, get a box that will fit my shoe and has a light in it so i can put my shoes in it.  UV lights are the ILLEST!

Basically, long exposure camera shots will make dim things look brighter.

In person, it really just glows like that for like one second before it starts fading away. "Charge" the glow for 30 seconds, turn off the lights, and enjoy it for 1 second, haha.
