Nike Air Hypermax 2009 Update
Posted by Nick Engvall | Sep 19, 2008 We showed you the Nike Air Hypermax basketball shoe 3 days ago with a simple catalog photo. Now we have got the real deal for you. It looks like Nike basketball will be stepping up big next year with their releases. The quality on these looks real nice. A few detailed shots after the break to show you the Max Air sole, toebox, and ankle strap.The Nike Air Hypermax is set to drop next June for $130. Thanks to from Ken Lu for the photos. |

Hypermax is heavier than to Hyperdunk. But Hypermax can assure you that your ankle is safe.

These shoes are beautiful….i would rock them on the street….i actually like the look of bball shoes in jeans…its a dope look with certain shoes(ie the sharkley’s) and the hypers are sooooooo light so id have to get these

I’m feelin’ these jointz big time with or without da strap. I’d rock’em on da streets since I’ve retired from ballin’.
Sep 19, 2008 at 8:24 pm
yea these are hot! and they may look like the hyperdunks. but im pretty sure they are way heavier then them
all that extra plastic on the sole, and the airmax all that is gonna make them heavier.
but no doubt they are still worth gettin

Darneezy, I guess I am related to Miss Cleo cause I already know these things. They probably look the best with some basketball shorts, but personally I wouldn’t rock these off-court with jeans unless my name was Dikembe Mutumbo. But I guess you probably could pull em off with jeans if they didnt have that goofy strap though.

these are the illest they’re real cleann
Sep 19, 2008 at 6:28 pm
I appreciate that C$.

Can we get flywire on the strap to keep bulk/weight down?
Sep 19, 2008 at 5:41 pm
Lose the Strap.
Sep 19, 2008 at 5:35 pm
I just noticed they scrapped the pull tab/loop on the back. I wonder if they felt that and a strap was too much for it?
Sep 19, 2008 at 5:31 pm
*Orthotic, I meant.
Sep 19, 2008 at 5:29 pm
What makes you so sure, orthic? Related to Ms. Cleo??
Quite honestly, as I noticed C$ mention the AF25, I’ve seen plenty rock those with a nice jean and pulled it off.
At the same time, I heard and read where people say it wouldn’t work.
I mean if you’re being feminine, rocking straight legged skinny jeans, on some poser type sh*t then of course you can’t wear jeans with these.
As I stated previously, it remains to be seen.

bump the strap and they aight
Sep 19, 2008 at 4:23 pm
p.s. AF25’s fit a little bit bigger because they are wider than most Nikes imo.
Sep 19, 2008 at 4:22 pm
Icsupa:
In my experience all Jordans fit me the same, but nikes (depending on the model) sometimes range in size. Mostly though it’s just a size down. Normally I’m a 10, but sometimes I ball in a 9.5 (this is the size of my hyperdunks, except I got two pairs of the China’s in different sizes, since one is for casual wear). Some Nike’s though I can’t even get my foot into a 9.5, fwiw.
Sep 19, 2008 at 4:12 pm
nice hoopin shoes.
Sep 19, 2008 at 3:35 pm
Oh, can anybody tell me, is the size 12’s in Jordan’s run smaller than nike’s size 12’s, cuz I bought a size 12 in a nike shoe and they feel like a 13. Maybe I need to get a 11.5 in a nike shoe.
Sep 19, 2008 at 3:34 pm
Sttrictly for the bigs…and NO they will not look good with jeans. Sorry to bust some of you people’s bubbles.
Sep 19, 2008 at 3:28 pm
Yes, to me, these look better than the hyperdunks. These are so freakin nice!!! Can’t wait to see them in a black color.
Sep 19, 2008 at 2:53 pm
Wow, I actually like these a lot more then da hyperdunks.
Sep 19, 2008 at 2:50 pm
^^^ yeh bro the hyper’s are sick…i definitlycan get with these max’s strap support. No matter what the activity i always STRAP UP…triple double on the way with flywire tech.
Sep 19, 2008 at 2:46 pm
I LOVE my hyper-dunks, I got the Germany’s, two pairs of China’s, and a normal pair in a dark and light blue colorway, so it’s a no brainer to cop these ones (with airmax) once they drop. I like the strap, since (to me) the hyperdunk family is all about performance on the court, extra support for the cankles is always a good thing.
Does everybody else love their hyperdunks as much as I do?
Sep 19, 2008 at 2:32 pm
Nah, you’re not alone that one. I’d do the same as well. Not sure how’d they look with a jean, but that remains to be seen.
Sep 19, 2008 at 2:23 pm
I might be alone on this, but I’d rock these on the street. It’s pretty basic, but imagine if it dropped in some more intriguing colorways (which it will, no doubt). I’m copping.
Sep 19, 2008 at 2:18 pm
i like them a bit more now to see these pictures and if remove the strap, i think it would be amazing
Sep 19, 2008 at 2:03 pm
Nike is on a role.
Keep it up!
Sep 19, 2008 at 1:36 pm
this should be different players n tha league shoe…. especially vince carter. he hasn’t had a shoe n awhile now…
Sep 19, 2008 at 1:34 pm
Forgot to add, although this is being marketed towards the big men, I feel like a lot of gaurds are gonna rock these as well.
Gotta love the ankle support, I know I do. Reason I’m ready for these.
Sep 19, 2008 at 1:33 pm
YES! Just mentioned these. lol
