Throughout 2022, The Whitaker Group has locked in on supporting communities. From its collaborative COLOR CODE program that promotes Black and minority designers to now announcing a Pay-It-Forward campaign tied to Social Status’ Air Max Penny 1 “Recess” capsule, James Whitner’s team continues to give back. Just last week, Nike and Social Status launched the duo’s collaborative Air Max Penny 1 colorways, filed under the “Recess” name. Now, a second launch is scheduled to encourage the support of families in their back to school preparations.For those who may have missed out, the two Air Max Penny 1 “Recess” colorways are returning in limited quantities as part of a one-of-a-kind community giveback launch. Customers will be offered the option to purchase a pair for themselves as well as enter the details of a person in need and/or organization that they want to donate a pair to. For those without a specific person or place in mind, an option to have the Whitaker Project, The Whitaker Group’s non-profit division, select an organization of its choice will be available.Release for the Pay-It-Forward launch of the Social Status x Air Max Penny 1 “Recess” collection is set for July 22 at 9am EDT via Social Status at a price of $190 USD.
