After an initial limited drop, Nike is set to give the Air Foamposite One ”Tiger Stripes” PE a wider release.

Honoring the Memphis Tigers alumni and head basketball coach and Anfernee “Penny” Hardaway, the NBA Hall of Famer’s iteration of the esteemed basketball shoe is layered with a tiger-striped shell in honor of the mascot, while white laces and the subtle Swoosh branding adds a pop of contrast to the black and blue colorway. Those looking to cop will receive the pair in a custom wooden box with an engraving of Penny’s personal motto, “Ballin’ Is What I Was Born To Do.”

The Nike Air Foamposite One “Tiger Stripes” will drop worldwide on March 22 via Nike SNKRS for $230 USD.

In case you missed it, the Air Foamposite One will also receive a ”Snakeskin” revamp.
