The latest Nike basketball shoes continue to push the performance envelope with some of Nike’s most popular technologies. This year’s edition of the Nike Zoom Hyperfuse aims to improve on two key elements, breathability and durability. With the way the original Nike Zoom Hyperfuse performed, the 2011 model has a lot to live up to.
The Nike Zoom Hyperfuse 2011 features a lightweight and breathable upper comprised of Hyperfuse technology, which fuses together a mesh and synthetic upper together without traditional stitching. This reduces weight and increases breathability at the same time. For cushioning, a combination of Phylon and forefoot Zoom Air rests between you and the herringbone traction pattern of the solid rubber outsole. The Nike Zoom Hyperfuse 2011 weighs in at just 12.4 ounces despite a slightly higher ankle cut than the previous model.

this fuse stuff is getting uglier the more I see it.
great early colourway, loving this one
hyperfuse is an ugly technology flywire was way doper
They really should have made the sole blue or volt then these would have been real nice.
still ugly. not for a real collector.
weak run of the mill sole on a goofy looking upper. I don’t know what they were going for here. not a winning combination
