1997 was a transformation period for Nike: as Michael Jordan aged and his game grew steadier with fewer flashy highlights, Nike chose the explosive-playing 'Penny' Hardaway — hailed as Jordan's successor — as its flagship endorser, and the Nike Air Foamposite One was born; Chinese fans affectionately nicknamed it 'Pen'.
Designer Eric Avar equipped it with the most advanced sneaker technology of the era — an upgraded double-layer Zoom Air cushioning system plus a large carbon fiber plate, delivering a responsive, cushioned feel.
The one-piece Foamposite molded upper not only offers a striking look with a metallic texture, but also excellent wrap and support, greatly improving the shoe's overall stability.
The Foamposite One is widely regarded as one of the most beautiful Nike shoes ever, hailed as 'a work from outer space' and 'a basketball shoe ahead of its time' — unique in both sneaker design and technology, it even changed people's aesthetic for sneakers and elevated the charm of basketball and Nike's design philosophy to a whole new level.
