A pair of rare Nike Air Foamposite One The New York Yankees sample surfaced. Silhouettes have long been known for their futuristic sneakers, the past with popular sports team colors, and “galaxy” prints and metal iterations. The popularity of contours has led to surfaces in several recent unreleased color schemes. The current “Yankee” colorway is removed on the Portland-based consignment store index and sees alternating stripes inspired by the iconic “Sharpie” Foamposite. This particular iteration features navy blue and white tones, which include a light gray hint on the outsole, eyelets and heel collar. This color scheme was inspired by Penny Hardaway’s use of Sharpie Marker in 1997 to fill in the indent grooves of his Foamposite shoes to match the league uniform rules of the day. This sample is now available online in 9 sizes.
