Zoom Air is back.
Lunarlon was the primary cushion system used for the Hyperdunk 2012-2014 but it appears the Nike Hyperdunk 2015 will go back to Zoom Air. Specifically, the shoes will utilize full length Zoom Air. Zoom Air was last used on the Nike Hyperdunk 2011, so it’s been a while & we’re sure Zoom Air fans will be pleased. Like all of it’s predecessors, Flywire will be used once again as the strands are embedded into the Hyperfuse upper.
Aesthetically, the shoe is higher cut than past Hyperdunk renditions. The trend of the midsole and heel cup mixing into one piece continues, much like the Jordan CP3.VIII and Melo M11.
Stay tuned to WearTesters for the official release info from Nike Basketball. As always, leave your thought in the comments on the Nike Hyperdunk 2015.
They may not look like beauties, but I do appreciate the designers for switching it up for the 2015s. I’d like to see the traction pattern on them.
How do you know there is zoom air in it?
Because I’ve had the tech specs of the shoe for months.
I saw some other images of the HD2015 a couple of weeks ago and I was sold then. I like the look. I really like the look. If Nike goes back to some good herringbone traction, then you’re looking at one of the top shoes of 2015. Very nice!
Yes!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! that midsole looks thick and hard hope they don’t have it encased in a hard midsole that’s something nike would do
These look like space boots, in a good way. love the simple color blocking on this sample, but with that upper seems like nike could do literally anything with it. full zoom will be awesome! criminally underutilized cushion setup imo. if traction is on point, then this will be my first hyperdunk cop since 2012.
do you know if this is a prototype or a finished design? if its the finished product, the design looks very simple and i think it’s a clean, clean look. i loved the hyperrev full length so i’m definitely looking forward to a review on these.
these look great, i think, first time i’ve been excited about a hyperdunk for a long time…
It that’s the finished design and they have full length zoom then I’m buy the shit out of those!!!!
Nitpick: Why does Nike keep making such tiny eyelets for these wide laces? They make the laces wear down needlessly fast.
Sorry, I’ve got to do it: these remind me a whole lot of the hyperrev from 2014. Nike just took that shoe’s upper, removed the fore-strap and placed a ?fuse? shroud around the high-cut heel, where that heel window was. Not to mention the full-length zoom air. That’s probably why the hyperrev 2015, though it seems to hold its own, departs from the hyperrev 2014’s key elements. I bet these hyperdunks will perform very similarly to the hyperrev 2014, which some people obviously still want. But I’ll be honest, Nike and their upper/tooling rehashing for suspect & fluctuating pricing grinds my gears a bit. My 2-cents.
first hyperdunk I actually don’t like…hopefully this is a sample
Hey NW, this may be a stupid question but how do you get the tech specs so soon
Lets hope it stays within the $140 mark
Excited about the return of zoom. Not excited about the high cut and boot like ankly. Ugh.
Nice! Just hope they refine the look, seems like a prototype so far. Hopefully it’s just that
Full length zoom can’t wait.
Im so keen for Zoom again. Hyperdunk 2011 was the best IMO, bought the Blake Griffin PE’s only about a month ago just because they are so dam good ahaha
…………………………………………….FINALLY. The Hyperdunk 2011 by far was my favorite cushioning setup of any other HD. In fact, I prefer these over my pair of Super.Fly 2’s regarding cushioning and fit.
Boom,boom,boom
In the right colorway another Nike shoe that reminds me of the Nike MAG
Hey Nightwing when will the option to make an account be available? I’m itching to make a profile thanks
kobe 1 ish
I don’t care if this shoe plays like the first hyperrev..as long as the traction is durable and long lasting that will be gold my man
Really excited about full length zoom!
Give us the sideways herringbone traction from 2013 HD and this’ll be a performance beast!
Will these have a drop in zoom air midsole? if so would you be able to swap them out with another shoe?
Hmm… another line that has been utilizing lunarlon for a few years going back to zoom cushioning eh? Kobe X did the same. I wonder why the switch back? Is Lunarlon slowly turning into a fad cushion setup? I remember back in the day there were foam setups every now and then but max air and zoom air pushed those out everytime they were challenged.
Wing, think it’s happening again? Or just Nike trying to listen to the general populace that was clamoring for zoom back in a hyperdunk?
Over the All-Star weekend Nike was advertising “Zoom City”. In keeping with that theme, Nike may have added zoom to the HD2015. The HD is Nike’s most popular non sig basketball shoe. Makes sense to me. I’m looking forward to checking out the HD 2015.
Why is it that every shoe that has full length zoom have to be butt ugly????
Will get this exact cw
They look so weird, maybe they’ll look better on feet…
will there be any access to this?
Anyone know the release date?
Is the upper on the shoe flyknit? Engineered mesh?
The upper seem to be some kind of mesh and it seem like the shoe will an one piece upper. full length zoom, man hope the ride will be nice. I just hope the traction doesn’t play like hyperrev 2014. Looking forward to this shoes since I haven’t find other brand to fit my fit
DAMN!!!!
Should iD one “blackout”!!!
Any release info?
They usually release an all black colorway so I wouldnt.
I actually like the shoes looks….. And i personally like the feel of the high cut shoes. Cant wait to see some unique colourways and maybe see them on nikeid
The back of these is super ugly but i wish the midsole wasnt do bulky too
Which will be better? The hyperdunk 2915 or de UA curry 1? 😮
Do you have any thoughts about the fitting of the new hyperdunk? Did they make it a lil bit wider?
