Nike Air Pippen I Retro – Black/Varsity Red/White


Nike Air Pippen I Retro

Last year we posted news about the returning of the Air Pippen I and Air Penny II. Since then very little info has available, but in December the Pippen I’s were spotted in the 2008 Nike catalog preview we posted. Now we have more info and a better image.

Like most retro’s, the Air Pippen I will return in it’s original form. We’re not just saying that according to this image, but a very reliable source told us the samples look just like the OG’s. They will release in August for a retail of $160.

Big ups to Mac once again for the image and info!

    Stupid price… wait a few months and pick them up for $90!

  20. ^Yeah the retail is steep and most people will snooze on them. Mainly the younger cats that’s not old enough to remember these. Just the Godzilla CB34’s, still sitting in stores. I can’t wait to pick up 2 pairs or 3 pairs for the price of one. :)

    The only thing that’s off is the air bubble, which is common on Nike retro’s

  21. Nike is bringing back all the hot og sneaks. I heard the Griffeys might come back out. Is that true?

    Y’all Know I love almost everything from the 90’s and these are no exception 2 pairs easy ( Yo G Roc Wassup on the penny II’s we need info )

  23. ^I’m still waiting on info myself. I heard the Penny II’s will release at the end of the year, which sucks. I need a pair of the black Penny II’s like right now.

    eeek just realized the price… not sure about that. if they go on sale, i’d be interested.

  28. These are hard; must have.
    I never had these coming up, but definately remember them.

    For those who did, are they heavy? I’m gonna ball in mine…they look heavy to me for some reason.

    what up TSG? Thanx G-roc, man I’m loving the pic. Man, I was planning on retiring this year, but if nike keeps on bringing heat,, I night relapse. I remember being young, looking at the shoes in the stores and knowing I couldn’t them. Now that I got chips, I need em all…… Kind of pissed that I wasn’t able to get the Levi’s. First pair I wasn’t successful on in 4 years =( anyhow keep it coming G-Roc

  32. Comment by Cloud March 4th, 2008 at 10:45 am
