Never has a sneaker looked as luminous as the Blake Griffin Hyperdunk 2011. The high tops feature a very bright orange with contrasts of blue, black and hints of pink. The upper features a [crack/fissure pattern](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/dunk-low-halloween-1) that's probably a nod to Griffin's shattering dunks when he's on the court. If you look at the side of the heel, you'll see the NBA player's initials as well as his jersey number imprinted. The Blake Griffin Hyperdunk 2011 kicks are extremely exclusive with only 30 produced. These will be available for those who register at [Nike](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/year-of-the-dragon-colorway) HK and those willing to check back at the website from July 19th through the 26th for that special button.
