Sportswear giant Nike has announced that it will be relaunching the original 'Home' colorway of the Nike Air Max Penny 1, the brand's signature sneaker model designed for basketball legend Penny Hardaway.
The Nike Air Max Penny 1 'Home' draws inspiration from the design of the Home jerseys of the Orlando Magic. As a result, the eye-catching new sneaker features premium white leather uppers that are accented by pinstripe tongues and blue jewel-colored Swooshes.Other notable details include blue and black heel tabs, jewel branding on the front of the shoes, and Hardaway's signature 1-Cent logo on the heels.
