Jared Ebanks Helming the reigns of his alma mater for the past five seasons, Anfernee “Penny” Hardaway’s career with the pebble-grain leather basketball has stretched from being a burgeoning superstar within the League and marketing his own signature silhouette to crafting a newfound culture at the University of Memphis as head coach.
Ranked as the third-best team in the American Athletic Conference, Hardaway has led the Tigers to five straight 20-win seasons alongside an NIT Championship while returning to the NCAA Tournament for the first time in eight years last season. In honor of his immeasurable impact from the hardwood to the pine, ACES — a platform that tells its stories through products and events — is honoring the 19th coach in the program’s history with a custom 1-of-1 Nike Air Max Penny 1.
Finished with a muted golden graffiti graphic coating the heel’s cushioning unit, Hardaway will debut the 1-of-1 pair on the sidelines for Memphis’ final regular season game against Houston today.
You can catch the ACES x Nike Air Max Penny 1 “Legacy” during Memphis’ final home game of the season at 12 pm EST or via the official imagery below.
