Nike Air Penny Hybrid vs New Balance 993
For years DC has always had a staple shoe, a pair of kicks that 9/10 you'd find in any DC sneaker head collection. One of the popular everyday shoe selections for DC heads is the New Balance 992...which has now been upgraded to the 993. Another favorite has been the Nike Air Penny, which as you can see has it's own upgrades as well.With a full Nike retrospective on Penny Hardaway’s former signature sneakers over the past few months, Nike will complete the collection with a new hybrid called the 1/2 Cent scheduled for March 2009. This shoe is a fusion of all the signature Nike sneakers that Penny Hardaway wore throughout his career, taking inspiration from the Foamposite 1’s and the Air Max Penny II’s through Air Max Penny IV’s. This shoe will commemorate Penny’s All-Star career and celebrate his time with Nike. The official royal and black colorway is scheduled for a March 2009 release date and a black colorway is also in the works. Clear gum sole makes the cipher complete.New Balance has release a successor to their classic 992 model which nearly every DC head owns. The new and improved model is the M993, and features the new Abzorb DTS technology. The upper was made using a combination of mesh and suede, and is available in two colorways. They just arrived at Beams. Expect to see these in the streets real soon, New Balance 992's were an everyday type of walkabout shoe. So expect the same for the 993.
