Nike Vapor Laser Talon: Football’s First 3-D Printed Shoes




Wish I was good enough at football to play with these beauties. 

Weighing only 5.6 ounces these are needless to say extremely light. 
In terms of the manufacturing and design process apparently their 3-D 
printing and laser (SLS) sintering methods are ideal for the creative/iterative 
process as you can test a boot within hours instead of months.

Nike Flyknit Lunar1+

Haven't had the chance to pick up a pair of Flyknits but the colorways are gorgeous.





The Nike Flyknit Lunar1+ features an innovative upper, constructed entirely of tightly woven polyester yarn that varies in density: more open in targeted areas that need greater flexibility or ventilation and tighter in areas that demand support.   (Nike.com - Running)
