The first performance vehicle for adaptive lacing, the Nike HyperAdapt 1.0 is the payoff of significant research in digital, electrical and mechanical engineering. The shoe provides precise, consistent, personalized lockdown that can be manually adjusted on the go.

Nike debuted their new HyperAdapt 1.0 sneakers with “adaptive lacing”

 

in New York on Wednesday. What is “HyperAdapt”? It’s a self-lacing shoe, like in “Back to the Future 2”. Powered by an underfoot-lacing mechanism, the shoe offers precise, consistent, personalized lockdown which now be manually adjusted on the go. It means shoes that automatically tighten around the full weight of the foot inside them.

 

Nike has yet to release details on actual pricing or the precise release date, although they say they will be available “Holiday 2016”.

 

Also, if you expect to get a pair, you’ll need to download the upcoming new Nike+ app coming out in July to be eligible to buy the HyperAdapt 1.0s.
