Silhouette Explored — History
Introduced in 2008 by the legendary Kobe Bryant. Designed by Eric Avar & Jay Meschter, the Hyperdunk was the pinnacle of technical performance innovation with Flywire technology and Lunarlon cushioning debuting for the very first time. When released Nike produced a viral ad of Kobe Bryant jumping over an Aston Martin DB9 Volante, the mystery as to whether the clip was authentic sent the early Internet (think Myspace, Youtube, Bebo and MSN Messenger) into a frenzy, not only did the Hyperdunk go on to form the foundation of a number of successful Nike silhouettes, the ad campaign was an early indication of how digital-content dissemination would become pivotal for brands.
