Official Nike Air Max Penny 1 Updated - 2022 Retro Coming!

These are nice in person

How do they fit ? TTS or flip floppy like the last retro ?

They'll probably be "flip floppy." I had the last retro and they definitely fit kind of big. Unfortunately I don't have the luxury of half sizing down being a size 13 and all. Never understood how Penny was able to ball out in these shoes. Not much padding on the inside.
 
Penny 1s fit (not comfort) similar to the Flight One imo. Half size down. If I remember correctly they released after the Penny 1?

The shape and shade of royal looks nice in those pics but what's with that short tongue?
I'm convinced.

Thanks for the correction @caleb4god. I gotta brush up on the Penny history.

Is the tongue really shorter? I always lace them up then pull the tongue up so maybe that's why I don't notice it.
 
The tongue is always short

part of the reason they "flip flop" because they don't lock down at all and the bottom is like a brick

New retros don't feel nowhere close to OGs. The OGs were one of the more comfortable kicks I've had. 
 
All this talk about fit jus makes me want to say something.

Tie them up properly and wear them enough to break them in and then see how they feel.

Seems like a lot of people forget that these 90's shoes need to be broken in.

I did that with the 2011s, that didnt do anything but piss me off... Because they were still gliding on my foot

I had the OG Orlando colorway back in 95 and they were comfortable right out of the box. I don't recall ever having to break those in, and they felt like walking on pillows.

So hopefully these will fit halfway decent in terms of cushioning since I haven't had a Penny 1 since 95..
 
Always thought the og tongues to be slighter higher than these all stars. Although it has been decades since I saw my pair. I'm sure once on, hoping we can pull them up higher.

Edit: Kinda of like these pics...

Just think of it this way, these were some of the most comfortable shoes you could buy then. And they probably were the best you had felt at that point.

That was a long time ago and you probably have had way more comfortable shoes since then due to modern technology.

I loved mine too and had the hoh black ripstop joints a few years ago and thought those felt pretty good but that's just me.

Just saying.

Yea look at the other foot. Tounge sitting short. I remember pulling them up and after taking a few steps they would slide back down.
 
Weekend Drop order expected to deliver today. Very impressed with the quick turnaround on standard shipping. I'm too ready...!!!

I thought the Black/White Varsity Royal was going to release this Saturday on the 25th? Now I heard it's the all black playoffs? Which one's is it?

Just the black ones. The sneaker websites mixed up the colors and said the Orlando ones were dropping

The all black ASGs. The black, white, royal CW was never set to release. The blog sites got it messed up and ran with it.
