Nike HypeRize & HyperMax
Trailing on the success of the hyperdunk, Nike has released two new team shoes based on the original Hyperdunk – the Nike Hypermax TB and the Nike Hyperize TB. You guessed it – the hypermax sports a full length oversized air max unit, while the hyperize is simply an upgraded version of the Hyperdunk.
Both shoes are released as a a Nike Team Shoe that will be produced in multiple colorways designed to meet the requirements of coaches and teams in both highschool and college athletics. These two shoes replace the Team Elite series of team basketball shoes used for the past couple of years. Also in the new team Team Basketball lineup are the Nike Shox Vision, Nike Blue Chip II and Zoom Lebron III. Its nice to see some of the new technology employed in a team series shoe, although the hyper series of shoes are weak in support + comfort with thier extreemly high ankle collars.
Coaches get your team a discount by ordering from Eastbay, while you can customize at nike.com. Chances are – you can find a color that suits your fancy.
