Nike is bringing back another popular Foamposite colorway from the early 2010s. The Nike Air Foamposite One “Phoenix Suns” is currently expected to return in Spring 2027, giving collectors their first shot at the colorway since its 2013 release.
The colorway ties back to Penny Hardaway’s years with the Phoenix Suns from 1999 to 2004, giving the shoe a stronger story beyond its bold finish. While Penny is still most associated with Orlando, this pair taps into another chapter of his NBA career and gives longtime Foamposite fans a reason to pay attention.
As for the design, the Nike Air Foamposite One stays true to the look that made it stand out the first time around. The upper is covered in an Electro Purple Foamposite shell, while black nubuck lands on the eyestay and collar area for contrast. Total Orange details hit the Swoosh branding, tongue trim, pull tabs, and 1 Cent logos, giving the shoe that unmistakable Suns-inspired finish. An icy outsole completes the retro look.
What made this pair memorable back in 2013 was its glossy, almost candy-painted shell. It was never the most understated Foamposite release, but that bold finish helped separate it from many other pairs in the model’s archive.
Nike Air Foamposite One “Phoenix Suns” Release Date
As of now, the Nike Air Foamposite One “Phoenix Suns” is expected to release in Spring 2027 through Nike Sportswear retailers and Nike.com. The retail price tag is set at $240 USD.
