Named after the winged goddess of victory, this little brand from Oregon once called Blue Ribbon Sports has been at the heart of footwear innovation since it sprinted onto the scene in 1972. Producing some of the most iconic silhouttes in the sneaker world and wrapping its laces around some of histories greatest athletes, Nike has been doing miles around our collective conscious and the more popular it gets, its relevance will only grow, which is all good as long as they keep churning out bangers.

Paying tribute to basketball icon Penny Hardaway, this nearly 1:1 remake of the '90s original (his first signature shoe) comes decked out in all the hallmark details. From the jeweled Swoosh to the winged piping on the sides, it delivers big on retro style. Classic canvas accents done in Rattan update the look, while Black and Summit White colors round it out with off-court appeal. Oh, and that Air cushioning underfoot—get ready for performance-level comfort you gotta feel to believe.
