Shoes: Nike Hyperdunk (first part of 2008-09 NBA Season) at Finish Line...

Official Description: Quite simply, the revolutionary Hyperdunk delivers all the support you need on the court with the least amount of weight. Jump higher. Cut sharper. React faster. Be more explosive.

The Hyperdunk represents the future. The Hyperdunk is the future of basketball footwear. Constructed using Nike’s 'Fly Wire" technology, Vectran fibers, which are five times stronger than steel and never lose their strength, are encased in the skim to harness the body of the shoe. These thin wires act as supports on a suspension bridge, providing the necessary support structure while eliminating excess weight above the sole.

The sole is constructed with Lunar Foam, a material developed by NASA that gives the shoe excellent shock absorption and a great feel with minimal weight. With a breathable mesh tongue and a protective heel cup your safety and comfort is assured during your long flights.

Features: The Hyperdunk combines two new Nike innovations: Flywire technology and Lunarlite foam

• Flywire technology redefines footwear construction, shaving off weight and adding strength, allowing athletes to be lighter on their feet and faster on the track and on the court.
• Lunarlite foam features a unique cell structure making it lightweight and ultra responsive as a cushioning system.
• At only 13.0 ounces, the Nike Hyperdunk is 18 percent lighter than the average Nike basketball shoe
