A pair of the rare Nike Air Foamposite One “New York Yankees” sample has surfaced. The silhouette has long been known for its futuristic take on sneakers, sporting popular sports team colors in the past as well as “Galaxy” prints and metallic iterations. The popularity of the silhouette has led to the recent surfacing of several unreleased colorways. This current “Yankees” colorway was dropped on Portland-based consignment store INDEX and sees the alternating striping that was inspired by the iconic “Sharpie” Foamposite. This particular iteration features navy blue and white hues taking over the upper, including light grey hints on the outsole, eyelets and heel collar. The colorway was inspired by Penny Hardaway’s use of a Sharpie marker back in 1997 to fill in the indented grooves of his Foamposite shoes to comply with the league uniform rules back in the day. The sample is now available online in a size nine.
