While designing the Hyperdunk shoe, Eric Avar took design inspiration from a Nike concept shoe created in the late 80’s for movie character Marty McFly [played by Michael J. Fox] in the film Back to the Future II. The shoes were created through a licensing agreement with Universal Studios Consumer Products Group. To help introduce the Hyperdunk to the general public Nike designed a McFly Hyperdunk which released last July to much fanfare.
The Hypermax which is not the next version of the Hyperdunk but a similarly designed sneaker for the bigger men in basketball. Nike has decided to design a McFly Hypermax as well which we saw a short while back. The McFly Hyperdunk was designed with all the technology in place, the McFly Hypermax has been designed with a satin upper in place of the Flywire upper. No word on a release date just yet but we would assume this could be another Summer release. Via Sole Collector

It seems even more true to the movie McFly than the hyperdunk… especially with the use of the satin upper. I still feel the overall profile of the Yeezy better matches up with the real McFly. As completely overrated as the Yeezy is… a McYeezy would be FLY!

Really glad they kept the whole Satin material and not include the flywire near the swoosh!(regards to the concept designs earlier, that Flywire design is wackness)
