Here’s an interesting thought: is there anyone in the NBA that should act as an ambassador to the Air Penny line, much like how Dwyane Wade continued the Air Jordan legacy until he gained his own signature shoe? There aren’t too many players that have Penny’s game, which can best be described as an amalgam of point guard instinct, shooting guard scoring, and small forward athleticism. It would be quite the surprising move if Nike created take-down Air Penny models and seeded them out to its Nike athletes, so who do you think would be on ‘Team Penny’? We’re certain the Air Penny V will be a popular go-to model once the 2012-13 NBA Season starts, so here’s another detailed look at the ‘Miami’ Penny V, with the opportunity to cop half a year in advance from skit_japan on eBay.

The Penny vs. LeBron story can only be told through sneakers. They never faced off in any meaningful games and when LeBron was busy putting up near-triple-doubles a night, Penny was coming off the bench and playing the supporting role. While their professional careers have gone in separate paths, their sneaker legacies appear to be neck and neck; the LeBron continues to pump out new designs, while the Air Penny lives off the Foamposite and Air Penny hybrids – that is until Nike will release the Air Penny V this Holiday 2012 season. Today we get a first detailed look at the upcoming New Green/Safety Orange colorway dubbed the ‘Miami’ (for its resemblance to the Miami Hurricanes uniforms, so the question arises: Which Miami-based sneaker is better, the Air Penny V ‘Miami’, or the LeBron 9 Elite ‘South Beach’? Peep the detailed gallery below and give us your answer, and stay tuned to Sneaker News to be on top of all the big stories from the sneaker newswire. Photos: kumastock
