Over the past couple of years, University of Texas has produced a few top-notch basketball products, namely Kevin Durant, D.J. Augustin, Lamarcus Aldridge and Daniel Gibson. Next in line? University of Texas combo guard A.J. Abrams. The Austin, TX native was the second leading scorer for the Final Four UT team last year and is currently the leading scorer for #8 team in the nation. Recently, the Longhorns beat the #9 UCLA Bruins behind Abrams 31 points.

Nice Kicks sat down with A.J. Abrams to discuss his take on the UT Nike Hyperdunk ‘Maui, Hawaii’ PE, his opinion on former teammate Kevin Durant’s 1st signature shoe, and his thoughts on his favorite player’s sneaker line. He also tells his best/worst Jordan sneaker of all time, his top 5 sneakers ever and which sneaker he wishes Nike bring back from the past (pay attention Nike).

The ‘Maui’ Texas Hyperdunk is arguably one of the best colorways we have seen thus far. They feature a Burnt Orange/White colorway with the UT logo on the tongue of the sneaker. Burnt orange is featured heavily on the shoe, namely the flywire design. The most interesting feature on these PEs is the Maui, Hawaii-themed flower print seen throughout the sneaker. We haven’t seen the other team’s PEs but we think it is safe to say the UT ‘Maui’ Hyperdunk will be the hottest sneaker in Hawaii.
