Yep! This is another one of Nike’s upcoming hybrid sneakers and probably the best hybrid design so far. Titled as the Nike Air Hoop Structure, this sneaker combines the Air Structure Triax ‘91 with several elements of an average basketball shoe. For example: the Jordan VI (6) can be seen in the angle and height of the collar, the small cushion on the collar, the jagged/wavy lines of the midsole, and the general silhouette.

The Nike Air Hoop Structure will drop in a mostly grey colorway, decorated with hints of silver on the Nike swoosh, inner lining, & heel, as well as white accents on the midsole and tongue. The grey mesh on the sides and the translucent sole adds some much needed detail, and the same goes for the air unit in the heel and the reinforced tongue.

The Nike Air Hoop Structure is scheduled to reach stores in November 2009.
