Already in the running to be one of the Top 30 Sneakers of 2011, the Nike Zoom Rookie has refreshed the Nike Air Penny line once again with this multi-dimensional hybrid sneaker combining numerous figments of Anfernee Hardaway’s sneaker history. Just yesterday we showed you a brand new ‘Eggplant’ colorway of the Zoom Rookie, but as we’ve stated before, it’s the Orlando Magic-inspired Blue/Black/White that is the true barometer of the legitimacy of a Nike sneaker worthy enough to don the famous 1-Cent logo. In this new detailed gallery of this November 12th release, it’s quite clear that the folks at Nike Sportswear did another bang-up job in creating a hybrid sneaker (Jordan Brand, take notes), as all of the components – Air Flight One, Air Go LWP, Air Foamposite One – equally share the spotlight and work harmoniously to create one helluva hybrid sneaker. We’ve got a detailed look ahead, so take a thorough look and let us know what you think. via hoopchina.

funny, that's what everybody said about the foams when they very first came out. now look…..don't sleep homie.

You can always tell who is familiar with Penny's OG shoe options. The pods come from the Air Flight One which I pray that Nike will re-release some day.

September 7th, 2011 at 5:49 pm
…i like the direction NIKE is headed with this model,This will be a FAVORITE among NBA PLAYERS…and,keep in mind people,every sneaker is not going to go with JEANS and SHORTS.I think iwill get my 9yr old son a pair though.
September 7th, 2011 at 5:52 pm
..PENNY HARDAWAY had on the RED colorway @ a recent hoops event.He must have got them exclusivly from NIKE.

September 7th, 2011 at 8:02 pm
Good luck tryna find jeans to wear them with
September 7th, 2011 at 8:47 pm
hope u wasn't trying to be funny cuz that was corny
September 7th, 2011 at 8:53 pm
The day people stop hyping up these shoes is the day nike will lower their prices.
September 7th, 2011 at 9:45 pm
They should cost 120, the 1/2 cents dropped down to 150 and were easier to rock than these.
September 8th, 2011 at 11:06 pm
These are before their time. I cant front…I hated foams why back when………nine pairs later, I wish I would of been as smart back then. I love sneakers………….I guess I'll have to get these too.
