Nike Sportswear 2011 Fall/Winter Air Force 1 Hyperfuse | Hypebeast

How much?
 

soles too thick :/

Awful…

hyperfuse is shit. pushed by Nike bosses and the ODM to drive down production costs. first flywire years ago to beta test the infrastructure then seem melting to fuse sections over the flywire structure (hyperfuse). good stability, and lightweight. might be good and useful for high performance (and low wear volume), but consumer-use durability is very poor.

problem 1… cannot use on traditional shoe materials without aesthetic and structural compromise. Therefore synthetic materials needed (plastic, nylon mesh, etc)

result, a increasingly flat looking shoe that wears more like an aqua sock. low durability. The shoe will last, but will alter its form and cross crisp/worn threshold extremely fast. Again, not a problem for gym only shoes and performance where look is not as important. but wear them to the club more than 5-10 times and they ready to throw away as the feel and look become undesirable.  

problem 2… To combat problem 1, flywire is used to bolster shoe structure. materials used with flywire are non-breathable, therefore you see all hyperfuse incorporate a mesh-nylon similar to low-quality steppiline sports uniforms.

result, you wear these in Seattle and the shoe acts as a water bucket. Water is allowed in and trapped by the synthetic structure. Traditional materials repel water (with added use of foam/spray on repellants) as well as breathe. Hyperfuse uses a combo of plastics and nylon. initially repelling water but then allowing it in through its breathing structure.

conclusion,…. Hyperfuse is nike’s way of justifying a more mechanized production process saving as much as 25% on their bottom line. Developed in part with their ODM, they can effectively eliminate entire sections of production lines where human skilled workers are needed. without the need for stitching, they also avoid the cost fluctuations of raw materials (cotton, leather).  

For the consumer, an AF1 hyperfuse is absolutely ridiculous. You don’t use AF1′s for performance, therefore buying these already overpriced sneaks is for chumps. Hypebeast, I like your style, but hyperfuse is a performance product and this is a style website.

If you’re a dude who buys macbook pros as basically a facebook checker-thing, yeah, cop these. they for you.

These are too damn bright to be worn even in the summer.

Same ! Those are the ones that grabbed my attention !

I agree with it being called Solar Red. I was just going by the information given.

“Solar Red” not Neon Pink.

“Solar Red” not Pink.

“Solar Red” not Pink.

…

I need all three! Initially, it was the volts! Now, I want ‘em all!

I’m going to wait for the Air Max 90 versions.

if this was any other brand the hate would be overwhelming

I am sure both male and female will buy those, i just hope Nike was smart enough to release them in women and men sizes :)

They’re solid in Blue.

Im with ya there

Why don’t you just do what your name suggests and save us the effort.

I def fucks with these.  Sometimes you just need that loud color on the feet to offset the dull or colorless gear you have on.  Or at least thats what I plan to do with em.

what the fuck r these, glow stick boots, what a mess, proper air walkers

If I were to wear any of these it probably would be the neon pink ones. I personally think that these are good for display.

Come on these are so sick!!

Damn, I love A1′s, but these are just plain horrible..

I like the way these are made, but IDK who the f*** is going to where solid color shoes this color. LoL
