I haven’t heard many good things about the newly released Nike Hyperdunk 2015 and I still haven’t seen a pair in-store to try on, but if you wanted to bypass the high top look and go for the low then you should head over to Eastbay. Retail is $140, same price as the high, due to this being one of the ‘premium’ regional versions. If you were interested, you can grab a pair here.
Nike Zoom Challenge PB Performance Review
The Nike Zoom Challenge PB, a takedown of the recently released Nike Zoom GP Challenge 1 court shoe,…
I’ve tried them on and there was some discomfort in the heel area with rubbing
Try a dsg if you’ve got one near. My local one here in socal had like 4 colors of the mids out. I personally was not impressed at all. Fit was weird and hurt my Achilles and the forefoot “zoom” felt like nothing. To me it felt like a shoe with no foam midsole at all like a Jordan 1 or something. But I wore boosts into the store so maybe the stark contrast contributed to that.
Unfortunately, I don’t have a Dick’s around. All I have is a Sports Authority and the typical places like FNL, FTL, Shiekh, Shoe Palace.
Yup hurt my Achilles also
Heel was uncomfortable even going up half a size. The only good thing is the high tops hurt my ankle so these might not. Still ugly tho.
eastbay says these are full length zoom air…. have you heard anything bout that NW?
Until I get a pair in-hand I won’t know. Two different statements on the cushion from a few different retailers.
I see, cheers for the reply
Hyperdunk 2015 possible worst shoe of the year?
I am not going to say worst of the year as I’m sure there’s worse, but worst of the Hyperdunk line and most likely worst shoe at its price point? Yes, definitely.
Worst shoe of the year would actually be a fun post to have a discussion on. just a thought!
I really loved past hd models, and where I live I don’t have ANY places to try them on, I order shoes based on your reviews NW but hopefully these aren’t a let down, never had a dunk I didn’t like…
Please don’t waste your time with the HD2015 NW. Maybe the low because you like lows, but the high feels painful, awkward and just weird. No worries though, the Soldier 9 is a BEAST!! I highly recommend! The Soldier 9 will be the first shoe I NikeID. Yes, I think they are that good!
Bummer on the reviews as the Hyperdunk seems to be the Team Nike coloway for players. Maybe its the year of the solider. Time will tell.
Looks like people have been calling the highs trash. Inspected them in person and was underwhelmed with the thickness of the padding in the collar. Tried them on and there was some deadspace along the collar area.Will try to get the lows as those look better. And i am intrigued by the design of the hyperdunks. If the lows have better padding in the collar, maybe i will grab those instead.
Did you manage to get your hands on a pair yet NW? I’m trying to decide between the Hyperdunk 2015 or the Super.fly 4.0 but I base my decisions on your reviews. Could you give me any advice?
I haven’t, unfortunately.
Without trying on the Superfly I can easily pass on the Hyperdunks. Heel and ankle feel awful. And imo the Superfly looks better/looks more cushioned in both those areas.
