The Nike Hyperdunk 2016, launched in June 2016, showcases Zoom cushioning designed to provide a spring-like effect, similar to a trampoline. The renowned designer Leo Chang maintained the distinctive high-top silhouette, drawing inspiration from the iconic Nike Mag and leveraging valuable input from NBA player Paul George. Enhancing both flexibility and breathability, the shoe integrates a Hyperfuse upper composed of foam and mesh, a feature that revolutionized the athletic footwear industry with the original version back in 2008. Additionally, lightweight support is ensured through the integration of Flywire cables that smoothly descend from the laces.
