^Zoom Air was the cushioning, but it felt non-existent. Just a horribly-executed performance shoe; incredible looks but overall stability, cushioning, and comfort was lacking. The idea was great but man, I still don't know how Nike released these for $125 and thought that it was ok for the basketball court when the NSRL had to have known the fragility of the upper and inherent instability in the shoe.

My only problem with the hyperflights is the fact that its basically a disposable shoe.
I don't have a problem with cushioning because I almost always wear 2 pairs of socks and always put my innersoles from my flightposites or my Dr. Schols (sp?) Innersoles in them.
The shoe starts to tear at the top from the laces being tight and they always seperate on the side of the foot where the h meets the midsole.
That being said, when im indoors I only wear hyperflights. Its to the point that when im not wearing them it feels weird.
I have about 9 pairs right now jus for indoors. And ive gone threw atleast 15-20 pairs since they've released.

These felt like crap.
There isn't one pair of nikes I can compare these to explain how bad they felt. Loved how they looked but there was no way I could've bought em and wore em. This was back when and 1 tai chis and Jordan 15s were the most comfy shoes I had felt.
