Nike HTM: Flyknit Technology






As if Nike hasn't pushed the boundaries of lightweight technology for years it seems that they have taken it to a level that was unthought of. Putting together the heads of Hiroshi Fujiwara, Tinker Hatfield, Mark Parker to create the HTM team Nike has created the Flyknit Technology. Using a fully knitted-in and seemless upper they can create a shoe that is 5.6 ounces. So far they have released pictures of one Flyknit Racer and two Flyknit Trainers. These will presumably be used in the Olympic games by USA runners and most likely many more. What's your thought's on this innovative push by Nike?
