The nike hyperdunk has been one of nikes most successful new shoes to be released in the past 2 years. The new line of shoes was an instant success as soon as they were released which led the way for the 2009 nike hyperize (which i did not personally like very much). The new nike hyperdunk 2010 though is straight fire. It comes out in a LA lakers colorway. I have no idea why they always drop shoes in la lakers colors. Do people just buy anything if they have la laker colors? i dont know. perhaps they have low merchandising fees or whatever. I almost personally bought a pair of adidas that had lakers logos on them so its not just even nikes! They were nowhere even close to the straight fire of these lakers hyperdunks. the 2010 version of the hyperdunk is a triumphant return in my opinion and I can't complain that it took a year for them to come up with these. I would say my favorite part about hthis shoe is how the color blends from one side to the other. Its not straight black, its like a gloss black stripe over a flat black bottom color. I can't explain it other then that I really dig it. What can i say haha!
