In science class, one of our company groups is "NIKE" . A student told me he did not believe that Nike hires scientists.
Please read the stats on these new shoes and you might be able to see the amazing technology that goes into the design and engineering of these shoes!!!

"The Nike LeBron 11 checks off all the usual trademark Nike tech you'd expect to see in one of the best basketball shoes of the year: Hyperposite material that create the main look of the shoe, Hyperfuse tech that uses a hot-melt process to fuse three layers together instead of using traditional cut and sew methods, Flywire that is made from Vectran fibers to act as a suspension bridge for lockdown and a full-length combination Lunarlon (much lighter than standard phylon foam) and Nike Zoom units to act as the shoe's cushioning. It all adds up to a much lighter shoe than the typical bulkiness of LeBron's. For reference, the 11's are 14.5 oz and last year's X was 16.8 oz. Last year's Kobe's blows LeBron away at 9.6 oz.
Nike also played around with the design of the shoes, adding little ambigrams in the sock liner (it says LeBron one way but flipped upside down it says James) and inner tongue (spells out his number 6 while also being the Roman numeral XI). The shoe will launch on October 12th. [Nike Inc]" (Gizmodo )
