Nike is set to refresh its legendary Foamposite One silhouette with a vibrant new colorway dubbed “Psychic Blue,” scheduled for release on May 2, 2025. This latest iteration brings a fresh aesthetic to the classic design, blending nostalgia with contemporary flair.
Originally introduced in 1997, the Air Foamposite One was a groundbreaking design, renowned for its futuristic molded upper and association with NBA star Penny Hardaway. Over the years, it has maintained a cult following among sneaker enthusiasts and basketball players alike.
The upcoming “Psychic Blue” edition features a matte blue Foamposite shell that exudes a cool, modern vibe. Complementing the blue upper are black nubuck overlays, providing a sharp contrast that enhances the shoe’s visual appeal. Additional details include striped pull tabs and Penny Hardaway’s iconic “1 Cent” logo on the heel, paying homage to the sneaker’s rich heritage.
Performance-wise, the shoe retains its signature features: a carbon fiber midfoot shank for support, herringbone traction patterns on the icy translucent outsole for grip, and full-length Zoom Air cushioning for comfort. These elements ensure that the sneaker is not only stylish but also functional on the court.
The “Psychic Blue” Foamposite One will be available in full family sizing, catering to men, grade school, preschool, and toddler sizes. Priced at $230 for adult sizes, the sneakers will be released through Nike SNKRS and select retailers.
This release is part of Nike’s broader strategy to reinvigorate the Foamposite line, following the recent return of the coveted “Galaxy” colorway. With its bold design and historical significance, the “Psychic Blue” edition is poised to be a standout addition to any sneaker collection.
