James Whitner and Social Status Release Official Photos of New Nike Air Max Penny 1

James Whitner and Social Status announce the new Nike Air Max Penny 1 collaboration with “Black” and “Desert Sand” colorways. The iteration comes after Whitner’s third installment with Jordan Brand, the A Ma Maniére x Air Jordan 2. 

We’re still waiting on official details, but the initial campaign images are set in a classroom setting, plus Social Status’ “See you at Recess” caption on the announcement.

The nod to school-related initiatives makes us feel like the shoes may emphasize sports and activity with youths. Its interchangeable Swooshes are believed to represent various sports such as basketball, baseball, tennis, and more. 

Its insoles and shoe boxes fitted with chalkboard-inspired text paired with the pattern on the outsole depicting various recess sports activities may be our clue about the significance of education and active play. 

Stay tuned as Social Status shares more details.
