Nike Hyperko MP in Black/Silver
Price- $150
Greetings, I thought I would do a short review of some boxing shoes after seeing the lack of reviews on shoes in these forums.
Appearance-
The first thing I noticed upon un-boxing the shoes was that they look fantastic. The shoes have a high shine to them and are very eye catching. Other than the Nike Swoosh, the only other details of notice are the MP logos and Manny Paquiao's name wrapped around the heel of the shoe (which is hard to see without the proper angle).
Functionality-
The Hyperko is an extremely light shoe, even with it being a high top. When you actually put the shoes on they hardly feel like their even there, not only are they light but they're extremely comfortable. The shoes flexible upper portion provides good ankle support without feeling like your foots in a cast and adds to the comfort. The traction provided by these shoes is also excellent with no slipping so far. There is arch support in the shoes which some people who prefer flat shoes may not like but didn't bother me.
I've had the shoes for around a month and use them 4-5 times a week and their holding up great so far. From the way their built they should last quite a long time.
Conclusion-
Pros
-Comfortable
-Extremely light
-Great looking
-Provides good traction
Cons
-Price
Overall 9/10
Price- $150
