Placerville, CA’s Red Hawk Casino is famous for its penny slot jackpots, a symbol of the kind of once-in-a-lifetime luck the Orlando Magic struck in 1993 when they followed up the previous season’s #1 pick of Shaquille O’Neil with the Robin to his Batman. Or was that ‘Lil Penny to his Superman? An even lil-er Penny Hardaway made his way to O-Town by way of Memphis, TN, both its university and the public school system responsible for the Treadwell High School Eagles. This new Nike Air Penny V ’Red Eagle’ brings us back to Anfernee’s alma mater, the Birthplace of Rock n Roll and the home of Treadwell’s Eagles who give the shoe its aggressive colorway. Nike Sportswear head Gentry Humphrey was on hand at the recent Shanghai Nike Festival of Sport event to show off this ‘Red Eagle’ Penny V and you can see more images after the jump below. Let us know which colorway is best as we approach the debut drop and stick with Sneaker News for all the US release dates.

gotta have em
I like the "cloaks" beter
Omg sweet
These are the only Penny V's i like.
it's a really busy design on this shoe but I think Nike pulled it off
Those look sooo sexy, ima pass on the Lebron X's and cop the Penny V's, all of em look hot so far.
Ehhhhh I dont know @BallHard15 Shit looks weird with the Eagle print......I think the Space jam Colorway is the dopest!!!!
Ima start camping out now
I never liked the other V's but the spotted print definitely made this shoe. Great color blocking and contrasting too. Great shoe
I just threw up in my mouth a little bit.
nice
lol these are garbage... they will most definitely be obtainable
Let the "HYPE" and the re-seller start making these unobtainable...
dont really like penny5s but the colorways make up for them
