Nike Hyperize: Philadelphia Exclusives
The newest House of Hoops location, opening today at the Cherry Hill Mall in New Jersey, will receive an exclusive Philadelphia inspired pack of the Nike Hyperize. The two shoes will help celebrate the grand opening weekend and the big city across the river.
The challenge red/varsity royal-white-green will be arriving on Saturday, while the varsity maize/black-white will be hitting Sunday. Don’t sleep!

Cherry Hill is basically Philly East (or West, whichever, too lazy to look it up) which leads to the obvious question, WHY NOT JUST PUT IT IN PHILLY???

Cherry Hill Mall was under renovations last time I was there in the spring…it looks like they have capitalized by drawing some eyeballs with new stores like the House of Hoops. Bananas!

Cherry Hill is still metro Philly. It’s 15 mins outside of Center City Philly.
Casey, you’re right. I lived in Cherry Hill for a few years, moved away, but heard the mall did some major work to update itself. This is a good look for it.
Also, right now Philly has a huge budgetary crisis, so I’m guessing that they wanted some crazy fees just to open the store.
Not to mention Philly is heavily unionized, so if you build in Philly you better use a union, or you have no hope of getting your store open.
Sorry for getting off topic, but had to set some facts straight for the uninformed.

In order to be a metro to something..damn..you gotta at least be in the same state…Cherry Hill.ain’t shit when it comes to Philly…we don’t claim or recongize them as use..they just in the delaware valley..that about it. That’s like saying PENNSYLVANIA IS NEW JERSEY..2 DIFFERENT STATES, TAXES, GOVERNOR, MAYORS, DISTRICTS, AREA CODE, ZIP CODES, SCHOOLS, AVERAGE INCOME, DRIVER LICENSE, RULES, LAWS, GAS PRICES, DO I GOTTA CONTINUE…PLEASE STOP that…

Different states dont mean shit.I can get from my old house to Jersey in 10 minutes and I lived right near center city.Then Delaware is 20 minutes the other way.Thats why South Jersey and Northern DWare root for the Philly sports teams.
