Finally Nike decide to do something interesting with their Hyperfuse technology. Well, something more interesting than making bad Dunks and okish Air Max 1's.

To be honest these still aren't my cup of tea but at least they show off the hyperfuse tech better than all the shoes Nike have released since it's introduction. Last year when they unveiled the tech that bonds together sheets of material to form a pliable, yet strong and ridged shape they showed a video of its development in the famed Nike Kitchen. The video highlighted the effect that could be attained but layering the materials and since then the releases haven't really shown this.

This pack is much more like the crazy test shoes that they were making back in the 'Kitchen' and for that reason I love em! and yet won't be buying them any time soon. lol. The pack, also known in more boring circles as the 'Olympic Pack' features Air Max 1's, 95's and 2012 sneakers.

All 3 editions should be available worldwide from retailers early this month.

    Last year, Takara made an amazing Transformer out of a pun, mashing up the big bad guy, Megatron, with Sega's 16-bit Mega Drive. And while it was nowhere near as punny, they followed it up with a Playstation-based Optimus Prime. But they stopped there.

    While I'm partial to the "hard-luck" Hanshin Tigers, these sneakers - a collaboration between the Hiroshima Toyo Carp and Vans - are super adorable.

    Last year, Back to the Future Day came and went without a public release of the Nike Mags. About a year later and we plebs are getting a chance to finally own simulacra of the most iconic movie shoes short of Dorothy's ruby slippers.
