That Nike Zoom Hyperflight sample with that full length bag on bottom just got a lot more interesting. We present to you the Nike Vis Zoom Hyperflight, done up here in an eye-popping “Hologram” colorway. The Nike Zoom Hyperflight proper of course got a retro this year via the “Superhero” pack, a group that was apparently just the beginning as far as graphics on the Hyperflight series is concerned. Aside from the obvious addition of the bag on bottom, the sneaker also features a reworked graphic on the tongue and a different set up for the mini perforations across the upper. This futuristic colorway is one that even has some Marty McFly leanings to it, immediately reminding some 80s babies of the lenticular cap that that character rocked in Back to the Future II. Continue reading to see a full set of shots on the crazy Nike Vis Zoom Hyperflight “Hologram” and let us know if this is a pair you’re hoping to pick up in the future.

The ‘Asia City Pack’ Quickstrikes were exclusive to the other side of the world, so when news came and went regarding this quartet of Nike Cortez QSes, it seemed safe to expect a similar fate. Here’s more evidence to support that conclusion, as a Japanese retailer shows off new shots of the ‘Aloha Print’ floral Cortez foursome. These nylon Cortez lowtops add suede trim to balance out the graphic uppers, and they’re slated to release this Saturday, May 18th.

It looks like Nike has officially re-joined with one of their most celebrated athletes of old in Andre Agassi. The partnership between them and the wild-haired tennis star will focus on “a shared passion for tennis, along with a commitment to help kids become more active and realize their full potential through sports.” And while that initial bit of info seems to exclude a revival of the classic Andre Agassi branded Nike footwear, we can certainly dream that Nike has something in the works. Tell us in the comments which sneaker you’d most like to see make a comeback and stay tuned for more news on the renewed Andre Agassi/Nike partnership.

With last week’s Poison Green release, all of the Nike Flight ’13 Mids we’d seen previewed have hit retail. Here’s something to look forward to, as we see this sleeper hit take on its most expressive colorway to date. Combining University Red, black and Stadium Grey, the Flight ’13 coming up later this year has a bit of overlap with the hotly anticipated ‘Fire Red Nubuck’ Air Jordan IV.
