Nike Hyperdunk Preorder
Posted by Matt Halfhill | Jul 11, 2008 Tomorrow the “McFly” Nike Hyperdunk will release at select locations but Finishline has just posted two colorways of the Nike Hyperdunks you can pre-order. The two pairs are the Black/Anthracite and the White/Dark Obsidian color that the US Olympic team will wear during the upcoming Olympic Games.
Despite being what is said to be the most technologically advanced basketball shoe, the price says anything but that. Special editions of the Hyperdunk have sold for $240 and $200 at retail, but these and all other Hyperdunks retail for $109.99. You can reserve your pair at Finishline. UPDATE:Â Nike Hyperdunks are no longer available for pre-sale - you will need to wait for the nationwide release on July 26th. |

People may think I am nuts but the Black/Anthracites look crazy good with jeans. The MC at the Olympic event in NYC was rocking those and they looked hella good.
I bet those shoes are hella breathable too and I am not tripping at a $110 price tag. Looks like Nike is realizing the economy is down and not trying to murder us like before lol.

yea youre not crazy sneakFREAK, da Black/Anthracite ones are TIGHT!! especially wit jeans. these kicks are worth $110. but i wanna see da Olympic ones too.
Jul 11, 2008 at 3:27 pm
yea you guys are weired cause the hyperdunk is a basketball shoe not a shoe 2 rock with jeans lol
Jul 11, 2008 at 3:29 pm
^ As is the Air Force 1, Dunk, every Air Jordan, Flightposite, Foamposite, and about a billion other basketball shoes…
Jul 11, 2008 at 3:33 pm
the tech in this shoe blows me away…space foam..wtf lol. next nike gonna just have built in rocket booster and anti-aircraft missiles
Jul 11, 2008 at 3:52 pm
mo3 please dont be ignorant…Chucks were designed to be basketball shoes but have you seen anyone recently were chucks to ball in…NO!!! so sneakFreak and JC i agree i would like to see these wit jeans but i would love to see the McFly’s with jeans too…PEACE

These grew on me. When I first saw Kobe with em I thought they were a lil’ luke warm, but the Marty McFly’s kinda made me say damn….. and these are not as flashy but they’re still a clean looking shoe.

im on it!

Hey Matt just came back from Champs out here in California and they let me check out the Hyperdunks. Being a person that plays ball I found them to be very very light and sturdy as well. I think this will be a very good on court shoe. I was also shocked that the retail will be $110. I thought for sure they would be around 149.99 or more
On another note have you seen the Nike Zoom Blur yet? I saw them on eastbay’s website and they are going for like 87 dollars. I wanted to see if you hand any info on them. I couldnt believe they were that cheap. They look like they are on the same line as the Nike Zoom BB 2 and that is a good shoe which I couldnt believe were under 100 bucks. That is a very lightweight and comfortable shoe to play ball in and most of the college teams sponsered by Nike and NBA players wore them this past season.

I’ll wait for more colorways
Jul 11, 2008 at 4:58 pm
dope shoe, boring colorways.
Jul 11, 2008 at 5:19 pm
Ordered mine! Love the all black. Im usually lucky enough to get my hands on many limited shoes but I couldnt get the mcflys and refuse to pay over 7 bills for them so these will do i guess! 109 great steal!
Jul 11, 2008 at 5:34 pm
You can actually buy these on pickyourshoes.com! I just ordered the Olympic ones. They are tight, can’t wait for more colorways.
Jul 11, 2008 at 5:38 pm
No doubt these are off the chains I copping both pair’s and these will be my first KOBE’s ever
Jul 11, 2008 at 6:04 pm
Didn’t Jordan use that most technologically advance basketball shoe line for the XX3’s. I’m really starting to come around on these would to get them in white.
Jul 11, 2008 at 6:07 pm
These black ones i might have to purchase, they’re quite bone-hardening i might say.
Jul 11, 2008 at 6:21 pm
i expect these will sell really well. im diggin em.
Jul 11, 2008 at 8:28 pm
I’m curious..why does every sneakerhead wear baggy jeans? that’s probably why they can wear their bball shoes with jeans. if you wear the nice cut jeans, the only bball shoe you could wear is probably the nike dunks and the retro ones like the clydes, chucks and superstars…
Jul 11, 2008 at 8:57 pm
Might just cop the black ones!!!!
Those are super fresh!!!!
I bet they are super comfortable!!!!
Jul 11, 2008 at 9:10 pm

I’ve seen a pair with a Navy/White/Carolina Blue colorway on eBay which is by far better than both of these but any are a must cop
Jul 13, 2008 at 9:16 pm

Jul 14, 2008 at 8:13 pm
ill rock them to play ball
Jul 14, 2008 at 8:49 pm
They look alright but they also look like the 2K5s just newer
Jul 15, 2008 at 6:50 pm
I can wait until i get them for team shoes.. any idea on the grip on these?
Sep 1, 2008 at 3:10 am
Um. You definitely shouldn’t rock these with jeans, these are purely for basketball. Sure, Jordans and Chucks are basketball shoes, but no one wears Jordans for actual competition anymore, except for maybe the 20s through 23s. And don’t even get me started on Chucks (basketball players haven’t worn those since like the 50s). Not to mention neither of those brands are 110 dollars per pair. In other words, don’t waste your money on these shoes if you’re just going to walk around in them. Put the technology to use and play ball in em!!

those shoes are ugly especially the all black i mean come on the starburys are slick l
