Since its first release in 1997, the Nike Foamposite basketball sneaker and its innovative design has seen a number of different unique colors and editions. With this latest release, the Nike Foamposite is set to receive an intriguing reflective 'Hologram' colorway that is sure to raise some eyebrows on and off the basketball court.

This upcoming sneaker model features a futuristic multi-color upper that changes as light is reflected upon it, and has been paired alongside black material all on top of an icy blue translucent sole.

Foamposite sneakers are also unique for their light weight polyurethane upper molded from one single piece of material. This method of construction offers a comfortable custom fit for each wearer's foot that won't overstretch or lose its shape over time.
