The Nike Air Penny 2, the second signature shoe for Anfernee 'Penny' Hardaway, a highly skilled point guard and a four-time NBA All-Star, was first introduced in 1996. Its initial colorway consisted of black, Varsity Royal, and white, which perfectly complemented Hardaway's Orlando Magic jersey. Designed by the talented Eric Avar, the sneaker boasts Penny's iconic 'Cent' logo in several strategic spots, with its upper crafted from a combination of synthetic suede and full-grain leather. The inclusion of Nike's revolutionary Max Air and Zoom Air technologies was a game-changer, propelling the Air Penny 2 to become one of the most sought-after shoe models of the 90s.
