In the late ’90s, basketball sneakers changed thanks to the Air Foamposite One. Designed for Anfernee “Penny” Hardaway’s explosive game, Eric Avar, a seasoned Nike designer, birthed its rugged design. Avar’s idea sparked in 1994 and took almost three years to perfect for the court.
Fast forward to 2024, and Nike Sportswear is reviving the original Air Foamposite One “Royal” colorway. This comeback features the classic Dark Neon Royal Foam shell. What’s more, for the first time, the mid-foot carbon fiber shank and the forefoot Swoosh logo outline will sport Black and Blue hues, reminiscent of those iconic 1997 ads. To seal the deal, a clear translucent outsole will maintain its iconic look.
