The Nike Zoom Hyperenforcer ‘Think Pink’ is one of those odd sneakers that men have zero qualms about wearing. Not only is the Think Pink collection for a great and worthy cause, the boundaries of sneaker colorways have been stretched to the point where anything goes. These samples of the Nike Zoom Hyperenforcer you see is actually a women’s colorway, featuring an Easter-friendly colorway of pastel tones, but it’s got that zing that would make the male sneakerheads want to rock a pair. You’re in luck, because these samples are a size 10.5 for women, which translates conveniently into a size 9 for men, so if you’ve got that ‘sample’ size, make these yours by testing your bidding acumen on this listing from loco_1979 on eBay.

Last week was an absolutely massive one for NIKEiD, as the Swoosh’s online customization service launched new models including the Zoom KD IV (plus its YOTD template), Special Field Boot and the return of the Air Max+ 2009, followed a day later by Elephant print options for the latest Air Force 1 iD limited engagement. It was a big couple of days, but arguably none of those shoes came with more options than the Nike Zoom Hyperenforcer iD that also launched on January 31st. These offer a variety of colors in relatively simple blocking patterns, but the big draw is the unprecedented option to choose between Zoom and Max Air cushioning in the heel. Nike Basketball tends to give models like these unique names, but in a year when we’ve seen the Zoom Kobe VII and Air Jordan 2012 take swappable cushioning units to new heights, it feels right to have a silhouette that you can build from the ground up. Check out a few more sample designs after the jump and let us know which colors you applied to the Zoom Hyperenforcer on NIKEiD.

It was another week of hot sneakers from Sneaker News Blogs: Best of WDYWT, and even with Superbowl XLVI keeping people at home in their living rooms or at local bars, the onslaught of on-feet fire didn’t miss a beat. A few readers got their hands on the Nike Basketball Black History Month 2012 Collection, while a pair of brothers rocked the Air Force 1 and Air Jordan III from last year’s BHM Collection. We also got a look at some great Retros, like the French Blue XII, Black Laser IV, and some nice low-top gems, and even an OG Air Jordan from ’93 made its way to this exclusive list. We’ve got all 20 from Sneaker News Blogs: WDYWT after the jump so take a look, vote for your fave, and don’t forget to submit your own kicks!

Among the biggest single events from the last and arguably best ever NBA regular season was the Nets-Jazz trade that sent All-Star point guard Deron Williams to New Jersey just in time for a new building and possibly a new superstar teammate or two. But the struggling Nets haven’t been able to pry Dwight Howard away from Orlando and currently sit on the outside of the Eastern Conference playoff hunt, so at least D-Will has a solid rotation of Nike Basketball player exclusives to provide some stability during these trying times. This Nike Zoom Hyperdunk 2011 Low would suitably match any of the NJN uniforms, but despite the relatively dark character of this grey and navy design, they were built to facilitate home games in Newark. Take a look at what might be the very last PE ever produced for games at Prudential Center, and grab yours now from Eastbay.

Blake Griffin is absolutely destroying the atmospheric layers with his mile-high leaps in the Nike Hyperdunk 2011; throw in Lunar cushioning and it might catapult him so high that he may never come back down! Here’s a first look at the Nike Lunar Hyperdunk 2012, which features a Hyperfuse x Flywire-stabilized shell on the upper with a basketball-specific Lunar outsole; the prominent swoosh on the toe gives the Lunar Hyperdunk 2012 an agressive look, while the interesting circular detailing embedded in the ankle adds a unique futuristic appeal to the shoe. Is the Lunar Hyperdunk 2012 from outer space? Check out the two upcoming colorways below and stick with Sneaker News for more updates regarding this new Nike Basketball model. via solefinder

Is Blake Griffin the greatest dunker of the post-Vince generation? In under 1.5 seasons in the NBA, Blake Griffin has amassed a mind-boggling collection in-game dunks that have set the internet ablaze with chatter, but his Monday-night theatrics over Kendrick Perkins have some wondering if Blake is possibly the greatest dunker of all-time. Then again, there are the detractors who believe that Blake’s dunk wasn’t exactly a dunk (more of an emphatic throwing of the ball through the hoop from an elevated position). If that’s the case, Blake Griffin is hands down the greatest thrower-of-the-ball-through-the-hoop-from-an-elevated-position of all-time, usurping that role from Keon Clark, who ‘dunked’ over Shawn Bradley in similar fashion some years ago. Blake has his Hyperdunk 2011s to thank, and Eastbay just go in-stock the Home and Away colorways of the Supreme variety, so head over the Eastbay to get yours and let us know who you think is the greatest in-game NBA dunker in history.

Yes this is a pink sneaker, no it is not another aim at cramming the Valentine’s day palette down your throat. Lest you get confused at this pepto-pair popping up so close to February 14th, it’s actually a part of Nike’s ongoing participation in the Breast Cancer Awareness movement. A tribute to the late NCAA coach Kay Yow, this Nike Zoom Hyperenforcer puts its bold looks to good use through an important cause, the notion of which is solidified by the ribbon logo hitting towards the ankle area of the shoe. Follow us after the jump for the full shots and get them now at select retailers like Extra Butter.

As seen on New Jersey Nets point guard Deron Williams via Sneaker News’ ongoing NBA Feet feature, the Nike Zoom Hyperdunk 2011 Low has started to show up on the NBA hardwood. A retail release can’t be too far behind now, so let’s take a look at a new pair upcoming in a colorway we’ve come to expect from every high-profile Nike Basketball silhouette. The Zoom Hyperdunk 2011 Low looks great in this ‘Blackout’ edition, its stealthy design adding a bit of extra punch when compared to the masses, thanks to a shimmering iridescent gleam from the outrigger and upper eyelets. Especially from the angles where the heel counter takes on its most jagged appearance, you can see influence from the last two Zoom Kobe releases, and we expect even more colorways on this model thanks to the variety of Team Bank looks on deck. Check out this most basic Hyperdunk 2011 Low in detailed images after the jump and stick with us for word on their availability. via mita sneakers

Andre Iguodala is the highest profile NBA star to show up wearing the Nike Zoom Hyperenforcer so far, and while we’ve seen several colorways previewed for February and later release dates, there aren’t any that match Iggy’s 76ers PEs. But have a look at this run of sample Zoom Hyperforcer iD makeups and you’ll find that one of them quite closely matches the joints we showed you in a recent NBA Feet feature. Add in the rest of the color options at your disposal and pretty much any of your favorite teams can be represented in home or away looks, or you can just go crazy and give each segment its own shade for a true 1 of 1 design. Peep the samples after the jump and look for these at NIKEiD on January 31st along with the also debuting Zoom KD IV iD and its ‘Year of the Dragon’ limited edition.

The word’s been relatively mum on the Nike Zoom Hyperdunk 2011 Low so far, but we’re now moving into the heart of the season for which the initial previews were projected. That means you can expect a whole bunch of Team Bank colorways like two of the three we’re showing you today, as well as plenty of new looks as is the case with the black, green and white edition. It’s hard to say which colorblocking pattern is more appealing (might depend on whether you’d rather have black for a solid away look or grey for somewhere in the middle), but both templates will translate well to a variety of familiar palettes, and you can get a glimpse into what we can expect in the coming weeks when you click the jump below. via HC
