Quick Summary
Nike is pulling the Zoom Hyperflight "Varsity Red" out of its early-2000s basketball archive for a 2026 return, part of a wider wave of Hyperflight colorways making their way back to shelves. First dropped in 2001, the low-profile silhouette stood apart from the bulkier court shoes of its era with a molded construction, near-seamless build, and a glossy shell that read more like a concept piece than a performance basketball shoe.
Varsity Red covers the synthetic upper in a reflective, mirror-like finish that defines the shoe's visual identity. Black wraps the heel and carries beneath the foot along the outsole, while a small white Swoosh near the lateral toe provides the only sharp contrast against the otherwise monochromatic upper. The restrained detail placement keeps the focus squarely on the molded shell and its glossy surface.
The Nike Zoom Hyperflight "Varsity Red" is set to release on July 10th, 2026 through Nike and select retailers for a retail price of $170. To stay informed on all things Nike and to stay up to date with the latest releases, connect with us on Instagram and Twitter.
