Hyperfuse 2013

The Last Entry In A Trilogy

The 2013 Hyperfuse closed out the three-year trilogy and represented Nike's most refined team-shoe build of that line. Dynamic Flywire cables joined the Hyperfuse construction, dramatically improving midfoot lockdown, while a forefoot Zoom unit rested in firmer Phylon for a low-to-the-ground, quick-footed feel. WearTesters singled out the traction and materials as standouts, with the herringbone-derived pattern biting reliably on most courts. The cushioning, however, was the line's well-known weak point: with no heel Zoom and dense Phylon throughout, impact protection was minimal. Kyrie Irving notably wore the Hyperfuse 2013 during his pre-signature years, alongside many NBA team players. The trilogy ended here as Nike pivoted to the Hyperrev for its team-shoe future.
