"Benny the Jet" is Back
We're bringing back a legend. "The Jet" stole home—and now, P.F. Flyers and Baseballism have teamed up for a footwear and apparel collection "guaranteed to make you run faster and jump higher." This throwback collab taps into the nostalgia of pickup games, when teams were chosen by captains, and neighborhood kids turned empty lots into diamonds with nothing but chalk, imagination, and love for the game. It's the era of "Benny the Jet" Rodriguez, reborn.
