it's about damn time!! apart from FTB pack, hyperdunk OG 2008 will get retro later this year. for me it's the best hyperdunk till today but the bad news there will be no carbon fiber on bottom

(damn nike always took something off the original shoes to make cheaper version)

Shoe that invented the lunar bottom out.

The carbon shank cracked pretty bad if you actually hooped.

Biggest flaw ever tho is the splitting of the midsole at the heel of the shoe, where the foam meets.
Straight exposing the zoom bag.


34.99 $ is my top price if this was og quality.

Cool sneaker, but no lateral support whatsoever. I sprained my ankle really bad in these in those plastic things.

Good look of the HD dissected. Thought the lunarlon was the entire midsole not a piece of it on the forefoot. Nice sized heel zoom and cf piece. Good to see they are sitting unlike the Oly Flight 96 and More Uptempo.

The UWR retro has carbon fiber, while the bland colorways do not. They dont feel as spongy as the originals, and the fit is different. The originals hugged your feet, and for me that was at half a size up. Half a size up with these fit, but not snug like the originals.
