Hyperdunk 2013 Officially Unveiled HD Photos + Upcoming Colorways

Set to release in a few months, the Hyperdunk 2013 will continue the success of the previous iterations and has improved on certain areas to create the best Hyperdunk yet. The shoe will feature Hyperfuse and Flywire on the breathable upper while minimizing the use of plastic. It has a slight Kobe 8 System feel to it with all the fabric showing and the aggressive Lunarlon design just takes everything over the top.


Kyrie Irving will spearhead the launch of the shoe and has been a part of the design process. Very similar to how the first release was backed up by Superstar Kobe Bryant, this follow up will be under budding superstar Uncle Drew's wings. Capitalizing on a one to one fit, a nimble set up overall has made this shoe a guard's dream weapon on court. Reinforced to withstand outdoor abuse, the Hyperdunk 2013 will be good to go wherever the ball takes you and get ready to blow by people comfortably. How does the aesthetics rank among the previous Hyperdunks from Nike?

KD 6 VI Meteorology // Weatherman Release Date + FIRST LOOK *on feet pictures*

The KD IV Weatherman is probably the most popular KD shoe to date with its great design, great concept and just an A+ execution. Trying to continue that success will be the KD 6 Meteorology drop that will utilize the same concept but with a more toned down look. The shoe features a black base with olive panels and bright red highlights. The Doppler design runs through the medial side to the tongue and a bright graphic design on the lining. Don't worry though, this will be a general release so if you like what you're seeing now, you'll have a good chance at copping them. Is this shoe growing on your now?

Air Yeezy 2 Red Debuted on SNL

Kanye West finally rocked the new Yeezy 2 colorway on SNL and we can only offer you awkward pictures for now. More pics to follow for sure.

This new pair features tonal red throughout the upper with a gummy red outsole. The same materials as last time will be seen here with the mesh toe, suede trim on the toe and the synthetic reptile pattern on the heel panel. This is rumored to be the third Yeezy 2 colorway and right now I'm sure everyone is just anxious to get a release date. Probably the loudest Yeezy to drop, this all red pair moves away from the traditional neutral colors with highlighted contrasts on the lining or tongue. This is an all out loud pair very similar to Louis Vuitton Dons and Balenciagas. Let us know what you think!

KD VI 6 RELEASE INFO + *On Feet* PICS + Low Cut Comparison

The Nike Kevin Durant line has been one of the most successful products in recent memory. Starting with a solid KD2 line, Leo Chang followed up with the successful KD3 that started the heightened technology for Kevin and that "Kobe collar" that he's been asking for a while. After that, nothing could have prepared us with the immense popularity of the KD4 which solidified Durant's sneaker line as a seasonal staple.

Now, Nike is taking a dip in terms of ankle height from the KD5 to the KD6. In fact, the KD6 is so low it's a couple millimeters lower than the Kobe series (check the comparison picture below). Not only that, the new silhouette is seemingly soccer influenced with tons of innovative overhauls. The lacing system features an angled slit and an eyelet flap for increased lockdown and ergonomics. Dynamic Flywire is found throughout the upper running along the laces with a new linked eyelet setup. You can only imagine the one to one fit this shoe could potentially provide. They're still using the same cushioning setup seen in the KD5, Zoom Air in the forefoot and an Air Max bag to protect the heel. Hyperfuse is still used as the upper material with a new logo on the tongue and the Swoosh placed on the toe ala Hyperdunk 2012. Check out the detailed pictures below as well as an on feet look!

Release date is set on the first week of July with a retail price higher than the previous model and two launch colorways to set the tone. What are your thoughts on this release? Let us know on the comments section below or on our buzzing Facebook page!
