Certain sneaker shades become iconic in their own right, and the “Metallic Copper” Foamposites undoubtedly hold this status. This captivating shade made its first appearance in 2010, and immediately held sway as one of the most beloved Foamposites of all time. Now, some of you may still be treasuring your pair from the 2017 re-release. But, for anyone who missed out or those simply looking to double up on this colour scheme, the Nike Air Foamposite One “Metallic Copper” is all set for a comeback in 2024. So, take a moment and read on to soak in all the details.

Tracing the Colourway Origins

If you’re familiar with Air Foamposite One sneakers, chances are you’re likely aware of the significant role NBA superstar Penny Hardaway had in their rise. After all, these kicks are his signature footwear. In 2010, Nike paid homage to this heritage by unveiling the “Metallic Copper” colourway, a fitting tribute to Hardaway’s nickname, Penny. I am sure I don’t need to dive into the link there.

Nevertheless, this particular shade became an instant hit for this sneaker model, rounding up shoe enthusiasts and reaffirming their love for the iconic silhouette. Owing to its popularity, Nike didn’t think twice about reviving this colourway for the brand’s 20th-anniversary celebrations of the Nike Air Foamposite in 2017. And from the looks of things, this cherished colourway is once again set to make a notable comeback to the market later this year.

The Design Details

The sneaker will arrive in its familiar “Black” and “Metallic Copper” colour scheme. The upper is covered in a shiny “Metallic Copper” hue, with matching accents on the Swoosh logo, tongue, and heel tab.

The silhouette also features a “Black” mesh inner bootie with dark nubuck overlays, laces and carbon fibre panelling to balance out the shiny copper accents on the shell. 

Finishing off the classy look is an icy translucent outsole, which is undoubtedly a step up from the yellowed soles we are accustomed to seeing on our ageing pairs. Needless to say, this colourway is a must-have release for this year.

Nike Air Foamposite One “Metallic Copper” Release Details

Be ready to welcome back the Nike Air Foamposite One “Metallic Copper”, slated to hit the shelves in October 2024, forming a part of Nike’s Holiday 2024 Collection. The much-anticipated sneakers will be available for purchase in men’s sizing for $230 USD and in grade school sizing for $180 USD on Nike.com and chosen retailers. This price might sound steep, but it’s quite a deal when considering escalated prices on aftermarket sneaker platforms like StockX. Plus, these kicks are definitely worth every “penny.” Sorry, I just had to.

So, if you’re keen on snapping up a pair at retail prices, keep your eyes peeled for their release later in the year. Meanwhile, you’re spoilt for choice with an array of remarkable releases from the Nike Air Foamposite One model throughout 2024.
