The Nike Air Foamposite One Royal first hit shelves in 1997 and was originally designed for Scottie Pippen — but it was Penny Hardaway who saw the prototype and made it his own. While it isn’t technically part of his signature line, this model quickly became synonymous with Penny, and the Royal colorway stands as the most iconic of them all.

I’ve written numerous Nike Sportswear reviews. Everything from Air Forces to Air Maxes to Dunks and all types of odds and ends.
These days, this is the primary category of sneaker I still check out for my own collection. Simple classics that work with a variety of outfits in a casual setting are typically what I am looking for. While I may not wear as many Jordan retros or Yeezys these days, I still go in for some Air Max 1s or Dunks to this day!

Nike Air Tech Challenge 2 Racer Pink Review
The Nike Air Tech Challenge 2 originally debuted in 1989, and while this “Racer Pink” release isn’t an OG men’s colorway, it actually nods to a 1990 women’s exclusive. It’s not something you see every day, which gives this retro a unique throwback appeal.

The Nike Air Trainer SC High Auburn is easily one of the most iconic Bo Jackson sneakers of all time. Originally released in 1990, this colorway is deeply tied to Bo’s time at Auburn University, borrowing its white, navy, and orange palette from the Tigers football uniform.

The Nike Air Force 1 Color of the Month in White & University Red keeps it clean and classic. The Color of the Month concept taps into a slice of Air Force 1 history. Back in 1984, some Baltimore shops started dropping custom colorways of the AF1 each month to keep the silhouette alive. That grassroots movement helped turn the AF1 into the iconic staple it is today — and this modern series, which started in 2022, pays homage to that moment.
