Whats Surprise Will Hyperdunk Bring In 10th Anniversary ?

Hyperdunk shoes , I guess  everyone must be familiar with this shoes, even if you did not bought it before . Hyperdunk was released during the 2008 Olympic Games, it is popular and outstanding in that year. The performance has been great on the court .Also there are some basketball star played it , so this kind of shoes has been  popular till now .

Then it is 10th Anniversary this year , so Whats Surprise Will Hyperdunk Bring ?

 

There was a Hyperdunk X Low shoe on the eBay .The sample claims to represent the tenth anniversary of the Hyperdunk line, which debuted in 2008.

This pair is reminiscent of the standard Nike Hyperdunk 2016 and the exposed Flywire straps and ventilation system it implemented on the medial side,  it is kind of look like Hyperdunk 2016. But images show this pair will utilize that system on both sides of the sneaker,and upgrade the upper material.

Also, the cushioning system appears to flaunt the return of both forefoot and heel Zoom units which followed Hyperdunk 2016.

There is no indication of a React foam carrier in this pair, and although the Hyperdunk React 2017 was popular on NBA courts, then the Hyperdunk  2018  seems more upgrade.

 

For the traction : herringbone traction pattern again , it is also different between MNike Hyperdunk 2016, and Nike Hyperdunk 2017.  Maybe a lot of people dont like the pattern of Hyperdunk 2017 ,  will you  like the Hyperdunk 2018 this time ?

 

For the material , it is used the mesh mesh, fuse reinforcements, it is will be more stronger than the last model.The engineered mesh is lightweight, breathable, and easily damaged during game-play. So nike usually used this kind of material. This year Nike backed the material with a nylon and glued the two layers together.So seems it look cool .New to the Hyperdunk 10 is the wider lacing structure that provides additional lock-down with Flywire.

An external heel counter, along with an additional external reinforcement piece, and a TPU torsional plate are all in place. so the supporting is great too.

There are  more different colorway as below:

 

 

Oerall: The Hyperdunk shoes make a good traction, materials, fit, and support are all standout features. Nike could have marketed the cushion more towards the quick guard that needed a little more than just Phylon, but for the Hyperdunk X Low. It’s not clear if the foam midsole is the brand’s new REACT foam or a standard injected phylon.We can find out when we got one .

Jordan Fly Lockdown Performance Review

Every summer it seems Jordan Brand,adidas and other brand will release some new sneakers , this summer the Jordan Brand also debut a new styles of shoes —Jordan Fly Lockdown . From the Jordan FBI to the XVI.5 to the Super.Fly series, some part of the brand still as the fashion line ,how about this kind new shoes ?

We will check it closely .

This  Jordan Fly Lockdown sports the shield Jumpman logo at side  is the classic logo .but there one version of Jordan Fly Lockdown’s logo was from the Air Jordan 14 ‘Last Shot’  The shields were inspired by the logos on Michael Jordan’s Ferrari and they’re also featured on the insoles of this sneaker.

The synthetic textile upper of the Jordan Fly Lockdown also resembles carbon fiber which only accentuates the theme.

For the lace system , it is different compare with other styles ,

it will be easy to adjust , but I don’t know why the lace system will be through the tongue ? 

For the material : it is used the a woven textile upper that is very reminiscent of the Jordan XX9. For this material has been popular on the Nike sneakers .It also uses a forefoot Zoom unit that feels like the oval unit found in the LeBron 15 Low and PG 2.

For this material ,it is durable and stability .it is unlike the leather material that will be fold.then the ventaltion is great .I can fee the air can through the shoes , especial for the summer .

For the traction :the traction is nice , the outsole sports a modified herringbone with some pivot circle patterns along the lateral side. and this kind of pattern did a great with the XDR model . The rubber isn’t too hard, but the pattern is spaced wide so dust collection shouldn’t be a problem. The lateral midsole sculpting may be the craziest I’ve ever seen
