"A must have in the Hip Hop realm of the late eighties; high-top technical led basketball shoes were the sneakers of choice"

The M100 is a classic in every right; a basketball stalwart released in 1988 at the forefront of a new wave of technical footwear for PONY.

When we look back at the elements that ensured the confidence of professional athletes, it is surprising considering the developments in footwear today. The technical parts certainly do not stand the test of time but the design certainly does.

A must have in the Hip Hop realm of the late eighties; high-top technical led basketball shoes were the sneakers of choice for any B-Boy and rap fanatic. It is the mix of technical superiority with a crisp and bold design that made them so desirable and why they’re still revered today. So much so that one diehard fan of the footwear uploaded a YouTube video unveiling some pristine original M100’s.
