Nike Air Hyperflight Appreciation vol. Am I the only one searching for a pair???

[sekim2detcidda]

I actually know the answer to my question. I'm sure there are others on the board who would love to see these retroed. After recently getting a pairof JetFlights, Hyperflights are my NKE B-ball grail (yellow pair word to BHoyle).

Nike please retro these soon...

 

[stresseddesserts]

all i remember is the super creasing in these.

 

[rc103dc]

I still have my pair. Pretty bad creasing, but I still rock them from time to time. Very nice shoe.

 

[mayhemgatz]

man i had that royal blue pair, i thought these were crazy innovative when they came out. as soon as i saw that creasing.....it was dropped in the back of thecloset never to be reminded of.

 

[prolific sole]

Personally, I always thought hyperflights were hideous. I remember my friend had them in high school and I never understood why anybody would buy such an uglyshoe.

But that's just my opinion.

 

[noblekane]

i just sold 5 of my pairs.

only have 3 left

forgot to take a family photo before i sold um too

 

[savestheday]

i worked at hibbett sports when i was younger, we had about 20 pairs of these in the purple colorway for 29.99, i've yet to wear any of the three i bought.

 

[fr4nch1s3]

they crease too easy...but a real clean looking shoe

 

[abernja]

This is from a post I made a couple months ago.

So this is what I know. Certain shoes have 5 dots on them, they came in silver/brown boxes, and I believe they were all pretty much released in 2000.


I have the Graphite/Blk Zoom Hyperflights. That's all I know. What else can you tell me about it?






So I UNDS'd these last night. Took a few snapshots before though.

Big ups to mel0nhead for snagging these for me. Thanks homie!

 

[dunknforce]

Yea I still want a pair... Sz 13

 

[noblekane]

they run a whole size to a half size bigger.

the cushioning is nice and they real low to the ground but they bottom out if you are heavy or play them to death.

they crease like no other shoe maybe except for the adidas kobe line.

the tongue is too small and slips under your laces at times when playing

great idea but bad execution

the purple ones are the only original hyperflight colorways to come in a orange/brown box

 

[NCtwin]

I have the Navy blue pair and the yellow pair. I love wearing them when it's hot outside. Folks are forced to look down to see what the hell is blindingthem

The Ultraflights were hot too. I have a pair of blue and a pair of yellow in those too.

 

[jcliz]

I got my pair at Marshall's for $19.99, sold em away a few years ago on ebay though...

 

[sekim2detcidda]

NobleKane...wow man! The yellow pair is by far the best color made. Creasing or not it is a classic shoe, and definate neck-breaker.

 

[trethousandgt]

yea this is a sick shoe, the purple, carolina blue, and black are my fav colorways

 

[shabooyah1124]

These are too damn narrow for my feet. I had the navy ones and they were just putting my feet through crucial pain. Great looking shoe though. IMO, Ultraflight> Hyperflight.

 

[size twelve]

never liked them, never will.


ultraflights were MUCH better.

 

[Magic33]

I always wanted a pair

I see they crease like the Shox I have though. I would still get a pair though.

 

[parada45]

I had the red ones back in the day. I remembering walking with my feet balled up 2 prevent creasing

. Always wanted the purple ones cause of J-Will.

I got the Silver ones and Navy Hyperflights 2 VNDS in a size 8.5 now.

 

[nolandw]

ultraflights were indeed much better...btw i do have a ds size 10.5 yellow pair of hypers.

 

[retrojtino]

Never even got those. Can anyone post a pic of the HF2?

 

[never wear them]

DEAD STOCK SZ 11.5 I WISH I CAN WEAR THESE....IM A SZ 10.5

wow you must have like the widest feet of all time

i agree the ultraflight>hyperflight for ball BUT the ease of putting on the hyperflight>the pain of putting on the ultraflight

 

[sironewc]

All I remeber is they were so uncomfortable, it was too flat sometimes felt worse than walking bare foot...

 

[supraman1784]

i been lookin for a pair of those for a while...rr a retro of these would be well appreciated
