Blessed with that retro 90s bold aesthetic, Nike Hyperdunk Laser shoes are re-released at the best time as bold chunky sneakers are back on trend. The upper’s layers are highlighted with vibrant color blocking adding depth and stylish accents to the overall shoe design, while the transparent window in the rear midsole adds a futuristic element.
This pair’s casual vibe is best paired with equally stylish casual ensembles. The guys can match it with cropped trousers and a graphic tee accessorized with colored socks and a cap for an old-school streetwear look, while the ladies can opt for high-waisted denim jeans or Sherpa and a cropped top for a casual, feminine outfit.
Notable Features
The Air Max2 Light’s rich heritage, stylish design, and technical reputation back in the 90s were enough reasons for sneakerheads to hanker for this reissue. The shoe’s multi-layered upper bathed in eye-catching hues is elevated by a dual-pressure chamber heel encapsulated inside Phylon foam midsoles.
History of the Nike Hyperdunk Laser
In light of the Japanese-based streetwear boutique Atmos’ collaboration with the Air Max2 Light in early 2019, an eagerness for more releases of the retro shoe has emerged in today’s sneaker community. Luckily, the underappreciated 90s silhouette was decided to be retro-ed after spending 25 years in the brand’s vault.
Originally introduced in 1994, the Nike Hyperdunk Laser served as the offspring of the 1989 Air Max Light runner. Praised for its highly technical 4-chambered Air Max unit, the AM2 Light is one ounce lighter than its predecessor and became a cult favorite among Air Max fans of the 90s.
With a reputation for strikingly stylish colorways, the Air Max2 Light continues the tradition as the shoe’s prolonged hiatus came to an end in early 2019 when the “University Gold” colorway is reintroduced. The 90s running-inspired sneaker possesses a striking yet classic upper construct made from a fusion of mesh and leather materials.
