Nike shoes celebrate pop culture

The Nike Zoom Flight Club Megatron includes a distinctive shroud, a supportive upper covering that creates an aerodynamic look. A Phylon midsole, supportive ankle strap and Zoom Air unit provide ultimate performance. The purple, red and black colouring, neon grid lining and Decepticon logo on the strap pay homage to Megatron, the ultimate villain in the Transformers franchise.
Nike Zoom FP (Fun Police) Bumblebee has a modern style and lightweight durability. A leather upper with reinforced stitched quilting, an injected Phylon midsole, visible Zoom Air unit and forefoot support pillars provide lateral rollover protection without sacrificing flexibility. The Bumblebee character transforms into a yellow car, which is reflected in the sheen of the shoe’s vibrant yellow upper and splashes of silver that mimic chrome.
The Nike Sharkalaid Soundwave includes a rubber outsole and two straps which provide basketball players with the traction and flexibility needed to play on outdoor courts. Soundwave was a Decepticon and transformed into a tape recorder. Graphics in the shoe pay tribute to a tape recorder with the original Decepticon logo on the tongue top and sock liner.
