To celebrate Earth Day on April 22, Nike has set to release the Nike Zoom MVP Trash Talk in black/purple and white/orange. The Trash Talk’s respect Earth Day because they use 100% recycled and recyclable materials, including black leather and synthetic leather leftovers, rubber from Nike Grind recycle material, polyester, and used EVA. Even the box uses recycled fiber to give the finishing touch to a certainly respectable shoe. No trash talk here except for that of eco-friendly materials. The black leather upper of the first pair is offset by a purple suede swoosh, and the white leather upper of the second is offset by a white swoosh with an orange outline. The stitching design on the side panel definitely adds some flavor to this celebratory pair of sneakers.

Earlier today, we showcased the “big man” follow up to the Nike Hyperdunk, and we now present to you the Nike Hyperize which is essentially a guard’s sneaker. The Nike Hyperize will release in two new colorways during August and September. The August release features a black upper with sapphire and white accents while the September release hosts a toned down colorway of a white upper with black accents. The Nike Hyperize is quite technologically savvy with its zig-zag flywire upper, lunar foam midsole, and its flywire mid-foot support system. Please note that both pairs are only samples, and thus have the original development name “Hyperlite” on the ankle rather than the sneaker’s actual name,”Hyperize.”

Now that the Nike Hyperdunk has released in all its scheduled colorways, it is almost time for the Nike Hypermax to make its debut. The Nike Hypermax is essentially made for the forward and center positions on the court due to its high top and rugged construction. This particular colorway draws inspiration from a past Nike advertisement which can be found on the insole, and reads “So Technologically Advanced You Won’t Understand It.” The Nike Hypermax utilizes flywire technology as well as a clear air bubble in the sole to provide a comfortable fit while not sacrificing stability or style. The Nike Hypermax – Grey/Black-Yellow is now available at select Nike Basketball retailers for $130.
