Aston Martin x Kobe Bryant x Nike Hyperdunk

Joe — Mon, 22 Feb 2010 20:39:29 +0000

In 2008 when Nike launched the Hyperdunk they turned to LA Lakers superstar Kobe Bryant to endorse the sneakers and help promote them in a series of viral videos. The videos featured Kobe jumping to incredible heights which Nike wanted us to believe was only possibly when wearing a pair of the ultra light Hyperdunks. Kobe was seen jumping over an assortment of things, one of them being a moving Aston Martin.

It appears Aston Martin has gotten involved with Nike and the Hyperdunks a little more then just letting the company use one of their cars last year for the video. Seen here is a very special edition of the Hyperdunk which Aston Martin designed in a joint project with Nike and Kobe Bryant. The shoes feature a chrome like Metallic Silver finish on the toe, ankle panel, lace panels and heel cap, with a Gunmetal color on the Flywire upper and Silver again on the mid-sole. The inner lining is fabricated from smooth Red leather to resemble the exotic leather interior on an Aston Martin and fixed to the tongue is a round piece of carbon fiber with Kobe’s name, the Aston Martin logo and the Nike Swoosh all printed on it in a stacked formation. Kobe’s signature is also included on the backside of the tongue on a Red leather tag.

No release details are available for the Nike Hyperdunk “Aston Martin” at this time but it just has happens that OSneaker has a size 7.5 available and reports the sneakers will be limited to 500 pairs and are expected to drop sometime during the Spring.

Nike Hyperdunk 2010 “LA Lakers”

Joe — Tue, 16 Feb 2010 21:23:48 +0000

Thanks to VSneaker we have our very first look at the Nike Hyperdunk 2010, a model which incorporates some of Nike’s latest innovation in the original Hyperdunk silhouette. When the Hyperdunk’s were first released they pretty much set a standard when it came to Nike’s basketball sneakers. However, things have changed a little bit since since as far as technologies goes with Nike making many improvements over their innovations.

When designing the Hyperdunk 2010 Nike kept most of the design traits used on the original Hyperdunk such as the Flywire upper, the floating counter heel, and the dynamic innersleeve. The Huarache inspired cutout also remains, however it’s now slightly larger then that on the original Hyperdunk. The new features, which are more then noticeable include a one piece seamless TPU Flywire upper similar to that used on the Kobe V and a Phylon midsole and a full-length Zoom Air bag which replaces the Lunarlite foam used on previous Hyperdunk releases.

No official release date for this version of the Hyperdunk 2010 or any version of the Hyperdunk 2010 is available at this time so stay tuned for further details. Click here to check out a few more photos of the sneakers.

Nike Hyperdunk Low – White/Grey

Joe — Sun, 03 Jan 2010 18:36:17 +0000

Set to release in 2010 is a grip of new Nike Hyperdunk Low colorways to go along with the two color schemes, White/Black/Red and all Black, which were released towards the end of December ‘09. Just like it’s big brother you can expect the low cut version of the Hyperdunk to be produced in a slew of color schemes throughout the year, with one such version being this white/grey model. The white upper features a combination of white flywire and white patent leather, with the midsole also finished in white with the addition of a grey speckle pattern and a clear translucent outsole. Further use of grey accents appear on the heel and inner lining.

No white exactly when these will be released but we will be sure to keep you updated. Until then click here to check out a couple more detailed photos of the sneakers. Via: FlightClub

Nike Hyperdunk Low White/Black/Red – Available Now

Joe — Wed, 23 Dec 2009 22:21:21 +0000

Fresh off the heels of the Nike Hyperdunk Low in a black/silver colorway comes this brighter and more eye catching version featuring a combination of white, black and red. For this version Nike used a touch of black patent leather on the toe and lace panels with black mesh added to the tongue. Black was also used for the Nike Swoosh which is outlined in red and pops right out off the white Flywire. Further use of white is featured on top of the tongue and on the mid-sole which consists of a subtle grey speckle pattern. Besides for the red outline around the Nike Swoosh accents of red were also added to the inner lining, Hyperdunk branding on the tongue and on a section of the outsole.

Finishline has black this colorway and the previously shown black/silver version both in stock now for $90 a piece. I’ve checked out and tried on the Hyperdunk Low and i have to say i was rather impressed with the comfort. I wasn’t to fond of the black/silver version out at the time but these are more on my level, may have to grab a pair for myself after this.

Nike Hyperdunk “Manu Ginobili/Argentina” PE

Joe — Sun, 13 Dec 2009 20:20:48 +0000

Manu Ginobili, the Argentina native who currently plays guard for the San Antonio is no stranger to Nike Hyperdunks. Back in 2008 Ginobili was one of many NBA athletes who wore specially designed Hyperdunks during the 2008 Beijing Olympics. Some of you may even remember the pack of Hyperdunks that were released and recall what Ginobili’s pair looked like.

Seen here is what we believe could possibly be a sample model created before the Beijing Olympics Hyperdunks actually got put into production and released. Or just a new PE Hyperdunk for Ginobili. Details on that are a little hazzy to be honest.

Just like the ones which surfaced at retailers last year this Hyperdunk carries a theme inspired by Ginobili’s native country of Argentina. However the colorup is completely different then the ones released in store. This version sports an entirely blue upper accented with hits of white which is a lot more eye catching then the white/blue/navy version which was released. The branding on the shoes is a little different as well. Ginobili’s #20 which he wears for the Spurs is seen on the tongue tag of the sneakers above some sort of logo while the Sun from the Argentina flag is incorporated across the heel.

According to MarqueeSole who has a size 8.5 in stock this is an unreleased PE. They don’t go into detail though on whether this is a newly designed PE or a model which was scrapped when the Hyperdunks got released in 2008. Either way though if your a Hyperdunk collector this would defiantly be a nice pair to add to the collection. If they were in a SZ 13 i’d cop for sure. But since they aren’t i guess i’ll have to do like the rest of you and just enjoy the pics provided after the jump.

Nike Hyperdunk Low Available Now

Joe — Fri, 11 Dec 2009 20:16:58 +0000

Although they were not expected to be released officially until 2010 we have just gotten word that the Nike Hyperdunk Low has started to pop up at select retailers. If you recall, back in September we showed you some Nike Hyperdunk Low – Spring 2010 Releases, which provided three catalog scans of three different colorways. We also took a look at the Nike Hyperdunk Low ‘Snake Pool’ last month.

To our surprise the first Hyperdunk Low to release from Nike is a colorway which we haven’t seen any previews of, the black/silver version shown here. The sneakers incorporate all the key features for the original Hyperdunk, just in a smaller package. You have the LunarLite foam cushioning in the midsole, tensile fibers on the upper that are part of the Flywire and all that good stuff which provides maximum support with the least amount of materials.

If your feelin this black/silver version of the Hyperdunk Low, which i know i am, head on over to Finishline now where you can scoop a pair up for $80 when you use coupon code HOLIDAY1060.

Nike Hyperdunk Low ‘Snake Pool’

Joe — Sun, 22 Nov 2009 16:40:49 +0000

Earlier this year towards the beginning of the Summer news surfaced about the release of a Nike Hyperdunk Low in 2010. Some catalog scans hit the web showing the sneakers in various colorways followed by some pictures of the actual Hyperdunk Low in a white/black/red colorway.

Seeing as how the low top design is the little brother to the highly popular Hyperdunk you can best believe there are going to see some colorways resembling those once released on the Hyperdunks, such as the Nike Hyperdunk Low ‘Snake Pool’ seen here which just popped up on MarqueeSole in a 8.5.

The Nike Hyperdunk Low ‘Snake Pool’ obviously takes it’s LA Lakers inspired color scheme straight from the Nike Hyperdunk ‘Snake Pool’ which was released in 2008 exclusively at the Los Angeles House of Hoops grand opening in a limited run of 36 pairs.

No official release details have been made available at this time and it’s not clear whether or not the Nike Hyperdunk Low ‘Snake Pool’ will be as limited as the Hyperdunk version. Click here now to check out a few more photos of the sneakers and stay tuned for further details.

Nike Hyperdunk Low – Official Pictures

Joe — Fri, 06 Nov 2009 21:54:47 +0000

Back in June we showed you the Nike Hyperdunk Low ‘McFly’ in the form of a catalog scan and just a few months after that in September we followed up with some more catalog scans of the Hyperdunk Low in various colorways.

Finally we can now present you with some images of the actual sneakers in the flesh giving you a better feel of what the sneakers look like compared to the 2D catalog images. The pair shown here features a white, black and red color scheme with a speckle design added to the midsole, a feature we have seen on every Hyperdunk Low preview thus far. Something about the sneakers which strikes me as odd is the fact that the lateral part of the upper uses Nike’s signature Flywire Technology while the inner side of the upper does not and opts to use perforated paneling instead. In my personal opinion it just doesnt seem to flow well. To each their own though.

Click here to check out a couple more pictures of the Nike Hyperdunk Low and stay tuned for further details and images of upcoming releases. Expect the low top Hyperdunk to hit retailers during the Spring of 2010. Via: Kenlu

DJ Clark Kent x Nike Hyperdunk Supreme

Joe — Sun, 27 Sep 2009 20:04:16 +0000

One of Nikes most popular packs, the 112 Pack designed in collaboration with DJ Clark Kent continues with a new round of sneakers. Back in ‘08 DJ Clark Kent and Nike released an Air Force 1, Air Max 1 and a Air Trainer 1 all part of the 112 Pack and now a Air Force 25 and a Nike Hyperdunk Supreme will join the collection.

Back in February we caught our first preview of sneakers but at the time we were only left with a solo shot which really didnt give us the greatest of views. Now thanks to Kix-Files we have some quality detailed photos of the sneakers. The DJ Clark Kent x Hyperdunk Supreme features a black side panel with neon green flywire and a elephant print in grey/black on the toe, lace panels and around the ankle. 3M reflective materials can be spotted on the mid-sole and back heel. The tongue features an custom tongue tag with a patch of the number 1 with 112 printed on it above what looks to be an old school phone booth.

According to reports the sneaker are said to be an Asia exclusive release. If we hear otherwise we will be sure you keep you updated. Until then click here to check out more detailed photos.

Nike Hyperdunk Low – Spring 2010 Releases

Joe — Fri, 04 Sep 2009 01:34:08 +0000

According to the the rumor mill the Nike Hyperdunk Low ‘McFly’ which we took a look at back in June has been squashed due to some legal issues. As to whether or not these rumors are true we arent quite sure at this time but as it appears Nike has a few other colorways of the Hyperdunk Low set to drop next Spring. Shown here are three very fresh colorups which use simple two-tone color schemes with a speckle design on the midsole. The Hyperdunk is a top seller when it comes to basketball sneakers so we’re interested to see if the Hyperdunk Low will follow in its footsteps and appeal to those looking for a more sportier look.

Stay tuned for further details regarding the Nike Hyperdunk Low releases and follow the jump to catch a solo shot of each model.
