In 2001 when Jason Williams debuted the Nike Zoom Hyperflight, the shiny sneakers were as flashy as White Chocolate’s elbow passes. Reflective patent leather uppers and a bold lightning-like design made the Hyperflights an instant eye catcher. After making their return earlier this year in “Superhuman” colorways, the Nike Hyperflight now gets a zoological twist in the Premium “China” Pack. The trio honors China’s three biggest cities, Beijing, Shanghai and Guangzhou, which are each inspired by fish and felines. The Shanghai Shark represents the port city’s aqua culture with a gradient flow from light to dark blue. The Beijing Lion features an intertwined pattern on the golden upper, sitting on top of an icy midsole. Finally, the Guangzhou Tiger is striped out in stereotypical black and orange, portraying the dominance that the city has in the trade and manufacturing industries.
This pack of wild animals continues the Hyperflight’s tradition of always having a bold appearance. All three of the “China” Pack elements have already debuted in their homeland, but will release worldwide in early August, so keep browsing Nice Kicks for all of the latest information.
