The Nike Air Penny 5 'Red Eagle' was introduced in September 2012 as a homage to Penny Hardaway's high school alma mater, preserving the legacy of his signature shoe. The synthetic leather upper of the sneaker features the official team colors and is adorned with a graphic pattern that resembles the texture of wings. In addition to promoting breathability, mesh windows are strategically placed at the quarters. Throughout the shoe, Hardaway's personal mantras are prominently displayed. Paying tribute to the Air Penny lineage, this edition includes a sculpted mudguard, an Air-imbued midsole, and a translucent outsole.
