OH WOW! I THINK I CAN WORK WITH THESE..

I usually am not too fond of mostly black shoes with one color accents. This Penny II however peeked my interest. I was really shocked at the symbiosis of the colors on this shoe. The all black color-way was a total disappointment in my opinion. It made a nice silhouette look terrible.

However, this combination of black and copper is very nice. The accents of suede to leather also help pull together the shoe and highlight the design cues in it. Unfortunately there is no definite date or even approval of this color-way coming out.

Just as Nike did with the copper Foamposites, it may only be a tease. Time will only tell.

Thanks to Sole Collector and Nice Kicks for the photos.

Check out the photos below.

Detail on the tounge.


Check out the copper glisten.


There is no such thing as a bad translucent sole.


Finally... The whole picture.


Always with love,

FINALLY A TRUE OG COLORWAY!!! NIKE TOTAL AIR MAX UPTEMPO BLACK/VOLT!

Ok fellow sneak aficionados... here is a truly supreme offering from Nike for this summer... a true to form... and color... OG colorway of the NIKE TOTAL AIR MAX UPTEMPO...aka the Reggie Miller's in a hot black/volt colorway. Some may see that as of late these so called "retros" have minor variations and cheap materials that dont warrant the price tag. I can fully say, being that I have held and tried these on, that this shoe breaks that nasty habit of being ill manufactured.
The color is fire, the all volt icy sole that runs the length of the shoe is primo (watch out for wet days though it will cloud the sole quickly) and the materials are first rate.
Thank you Nike for taking the time to give us what we need. I think it is entirely worth its $160 price tag. A must cop.
I have seen on various websites such as Kicksonfire, Hypebeast, SoleCollector, and SneakerFiles (to name a few) feature this shoe and state that it is available at select Nike retailers... I went to my local Footlocker (my place of employment) and found them today.. fresh out of the case and already selling. So dont sleep on these please... if you got the cake go cop ASAP!!! Dont miss out a fine and dubious serving of Retro sneaker madness.
Take a look at some of the pics and the last pic is the OG for your comparision, How does it stack in your eyes?
Oh how I love fresh kicks... mmmmm...

Check out the symbiosis of the leather and suede on this shoe... very nice.
And here is the OG for comparison... Very minor variations if any...LOVE IT!

I would like to note that all this information was done via personal research and scouring all the above stated sites... So if you want anymore info check those sites or email us and we can get you what you need!!
