Nike Hyperrev 2016

Platinum State · Jan 2, 2017

They dont look too bad, just look like shoes that should've come out back in 2002. Hopefully that zoom is nice.

Not the black/gums. The white joints are clean but would never get em. The right cw + discounts + good performance reviews could get me. Def have a sneakerboot vibe which is weird for a hoop shoe.

They've grown on me too... haha

Something tells me they will fit and play great. Definitely one to wait a while on though for like 40-50% off

Looks like Booker and Green (again) will be wearing these as their main on-court shoes. I think the right colorways will get people to turn on these.

Then again, bball shoes in 2002 look more like bball shoes than they do in 2017.

Just tried them on and finish line. Forefoot zoom felt really good and the upper was really comfortable. Very basic looking so I save my money for now.

It's definitely outlet bound (got my HyperRev 16s for $35) so it's definitely one of those shoes you can wait on.

Bookers see-through-ish sole somewhat shows how big the zoom in the forefoot.

Forefoot zoom looks good, but any consumer with half a brain would consider other options.

Even if these retail for $100, right now you can get the KD9, a full-length max zoom signature shoe, for $75. That means, for me at least, I wouldn't pay more than $40 for the Revs.

kds for that where

Ruvilla has them for sale at ~$120, log-in and use the code thankyou30 and it brings it down to $84: https://www.ruvilla.com/catalogsearch/result/index/?gender=Men&q=kd+9

I think that should be $84 shipped too. Not quite $75 but still not bad.

Looks similar size and shape to PG1 forefoot zoom unit.

Yah just looking at that pic I was thinking why isn't the heel zoom showing then after looking into it, it seems Nike decided to remove the zoom on the heel :x

The line is keeping it's price but losing tech. The first HyperRev had a full length zoom, 2016s got forefoot and heel and now all that's left is the forefoot.
Not even sure I want it even for $35 anymore :lol

Wanted some draymonds but no heel zoom no gracias

206to813 · Jan 13, 2017

I didn't see it before but the Draymond PEs remind me of Kobe 8s

mp23 · Jan 13, 2017

So basic. As said, I would buy a pair for $30 and ruin it on outdoor courts. Nike loves to screw us on cushioning, the price points for the others prove that, heel and forefoot Zoom/full-length Zoom for nearly the same price.

deezyvsop2 · Jan 14, 2017

I love the explanations too. They say the same thing for shoes with forefoot zoom only, heel zoom only and full length zoom. Impact protection, responsiveness, blah blah blah.

The Kyrie explanation is the best. No forefoot zoom because Kyrie wants to stay close to the court and he doesn't jump. Because Nike has never made a shoe before that had forefoot zoom and great court feel.
