The Nike Air Foamposite One “Cough Drop” 2025 revives one of the most talked-about Foamposite colourways, bringing back its signature mix of heritage and attitude. Staying true to its roots, the shoe features a deep black Foam shell contrasted with the fan-favourite red translucent outsole — a detail that sets it apart from the matte red samples teased in past previews.
Originally made famous during Penny Hardaway’s era, the Foamposite One continues to embody bold design and off-court presence. The iconic liquid-like upper still steals the show, pairing futuristic lines with a build that feels as durable as it looks. Penny’s “1 Cent” logo sits proudly on the heel and tongue, sealing the release with a nod to basketball history.
Performance remains as strong as the look. A responsive midsole cushions every stride, while the Foamposite shell delivers structure and long-lasting wear. The translucent outsole not only adds visual flair but also provides reliable traction, making the pair as functional on the hardwood as it is on the streets.
The “Cough Drop” colourway has long stood out as one of the most distinctive in the Foamposite archive. Its return in 2025 gives both new collectors and long-time fans the chance to add a true classic to their rotation — a sneaker that bridges eras while keeping its unmistakable edge.
