The 2014s look more like a hyperfuse than a hyperdunk imo

Agreed, but they all kind of look similar in many ways.

When I see Hyperfuses, disruptors and whatever else they make, I can't tell which is which until I read the box label.

I still get a bit mixed up between the 2012 and 2013 HD's.
 
The outsole pattern kind of reminds me of the one in Kobe 9. Tongue looks weird. I wonder how the heel support on these will be.
 
Man if there is full length Lunarlon in this as a low version... Game... Over...

Full length lunarlon, nice.  If the low tops have that, even better.

But that outsole...traction looks doubtful.

Outsole very reminiscent of the Kobe 9 which is a good thing. Reviews have been saying traction on Kobe 9 is insane. Check out Kicksoncourt.com review of Kobe 9. 
 
Still no word/confirmation if this is full-length lunarlon? I suppose the HD '14 will have targeted lunarlon (as usual) instead?
 
Nope, no confirmation. I'd imagine it will probably be targeted, because full length isn't really firm enough for some of the bigger players that use these. I would definitely gravitate towards the hyperposite or hyperrev if the hyperdubks doesnt have the phylon carrier.
 
honestly i haven't been a fan of the hyperdunk line since the originals in 08. my only wish is that those had better cushioning (since those had the first iteration of lunar foam and bottomed out pretty quickly). i wish those had either today's lunarlon or even zoom air in them. just my opinion tho
 
I would have loved to see a low, but at this point there isn't much of a chance. Besides, they hyperdunk 2012 low ids were renamed to hyperdunk lows , which to me implies they were basically the 2013s also.

You'll be waiting for something that won't be arriving bruh. Not now. Not soon. Not later.

Yeah. I'm just looking for another pair for the outdoors.
My 2012 lows which I've enjoyed are pretty beat up. Not feeling the Crusaders either.

Official announcement from Nike

http://nikeinc.com/news/nike-hyperdunk-2014

The Nike Hyperdunk continues to evolve its innovative legacy established in 2008. It was an introduction that transformed basketball shoe design as we know it.  Debuting here for the first time, the Nike Hyperdunk 2014 is defined by its lightweight feel and superior cushioning.

The Nike Basketball design team was dedicated to progressing the shoe’s performance, with valuable insight that came from a full year wear-testing and obsessing the details. Its dynamic fit has a great step-in feel, enhancing natural motion while featuring the following key performance benefits:
  1. Lunarlon cushioning midsole provides a soft, responsive ride
  2. Hyperfuse construction creates a breathable, flexible upper
  3. Flywire technology delivers dynamic lockdown through the midfoot
With summer basketball here, on-court versatility and breathability was essential. The design focus was to provide a great shoe for both indoor and outdoor use that could stand the heat and breathability needs of summer hoops.

Hyperdunk 2014 product details include:
[h2]UPPER[/h2]
  • Hyperfuse construction creates a nearly seamless, one-piece upper that is lightweight, breathable, durable and supportive
  • The upper has fewer layers, making it ultra-breathable and flexible
  • Flywire technology is dynamic and lightweight, providing lockdown through the midfoot. Its strong cables loosen and tighten with the natural motion of the foot
  • Dynamic foam collar provides a comfortable fit
[h2]MIDSOLE[/h2]
  • Lunarlon midsole provides ultra-soft, lightweight cushioning that delivers excellent response.
[h2]OUTSOLE[/h2]
  • Solid-rubber outsole with herringbone pattern provides durability and traction on a variety of surfaces.
The Hyperdunk 2014 is available beginning July 16 at Nike.com  and retail stores worldwide.

Between Nike sigs and experimenting with other brands, I just have too much in the roto to pick up a hyperdunk.

I've almost never been disappointed by the line though.  These look to be solid.

Really hope we get a low over the next year
