Nike HyperAdapt: 1.0 and Adapt BB

If anyone has passes or access to the Nike Company Store they have a FSR on every color way in the Adapt BB for $285. Vendor passes don’t get an additional 40% off and not sure if employees get 50%.
 
The self tie tech has gone completely to crap... some how now the loosen button is tightening one of my sneakers. Anyone have this issue?
 
Here is what's new about the shoe:


1. Bouncier court feel
Coming off the Adapt BB, players wanted a more noticeable bounce underfoot — Cushion alone wasn’t enough. Nike designers added Air Zoom Turbo to the forefoot of the 2.0, similar to the Kyrie line.

The Air Zoom Turbo setup creates a highly responsive cushioning platform that doesn’t interfere with the Adapt mechanism in the midfoot.

2. Better ride
Finding that harmony between pop off the forefoot and the placement of the power-lacing engine led designers to reconfigure the midsole stack height. The result is an improved transition from heel to toe while moving.

The molded heel piece above the midsole helps lock in the ankle for support.

3. Easier to put on
Another area of focus was easier entry into the shoe. By removing the Flyknit shroud, opening up the collar and integrating a stretchable ballistic mesh throughout the upper, designers made putting on the shoe simpler.

The stretchier TPU material also allows the lacing system to provide a more adaptive fit to the foot.

4. More immersive detailing
An obvious visual difference is the larger Swoosh. A closer look reveals a combination of pixelated textures, a deliberate choice by material designers to balance the shoe’s über-tech performance ideal with a more grounded opportunity to sense the shoe in ways beyond fit.

Another example: the lateral clip where the buttons are located has a concave geometry so that the lights better reflects off the midsole’s surface area.

5. It was debuted by point guard Ja Morant of the Memphis Grizzlies
Morant wore the shoe during his January 20 game against the New Orleans Pelicans. It will also be worn by Las Vegas Aces forward A'ja Wilson at the start of the WNBA regular season.
The Nike Adapt BB 2.0 releases February 16.
