The Nike Hyperko 3 are the lightest boxing shoes in the HyperKO line, weighing approximately 320 grams in a medium size.
Many specialists and professional boxers consider them the best option on the market right now, thanks to their combination of lightness, support, and comfort during sparring sessions and competition.
Important sizing note: for this Nike Hyperko 3 boxing shoe model, we recommend always choosing half a size or one size larger than what you normally wear in athletic shoes. If you have any doubts, please contact us and we will help you pick the right size.
Key Features
- Super lightweight: approximately 260 grams in the smallest sizes (size 38) and 370 grams in the largest sizes (size 46). You'll notice the weight reduction from your very first training session.
- Lightweight Layered Structure: the entire upper of the shoe is built with a multi-layer structure that combines ultra-lightweight, flexible material layers with micro-perforated mesh zones. This makes the shoes mold to your foot from day one, keeps them very light, and improves breathability, wicking away sweat much faster than other materials.
- Super Critical Foam insoles: cushioning technology that Nike uses in its marathon shoes, now applied to boxing. This technology delivers high energy return with every step and, unlike conventional foams that compress with use, maintains its properties over the long term.
- Rubber sole with rubber wraps: thin rubber sole that wraps around the sides of the shoe for greater lateral traction and durability. The sole design combines different patterns depending on the area of the foot: concentric circles at the front to facilitate pivots and turns, curved lines in the mid-section that follow the natural movement of the foot, and a grid pattern at the heel for stability. Improved over previous versions, you'll notice the difference especially in lateral movement and quick direction changes.
A spectacular lacing system
- Velcro strap on the instep: works together with an independent support structure that wraps around the foot and adapts to its movement, improving step precision, stabilizing the area during lateral movements, and reducing the risk of sprains. This strap was very popular on the original HyperKO, disappeared on the HyperKO 2, and is now back by popular demand from many boxers.
- Velcro on the tongue (Lace Lock): a velcro pocket on the tongue where the laces are stored once tied, preventing them from coming undone or getting in the way during sparring or competition. Anyone who has had a loose lace in the middle of a fight knows how important this is.
- Rear lace support: features several eyelets at different heights on the back of the shoe that allow you to wrap the laces around the shoe without them slipping, for those who prefer this lacing system.
Care Instructions
- Clean with a damp cloth or soft brush after each use.
- Air dry at room temperature; avoid direct sunlight and heat sources.
- Do not machine wash or use a dryer.
- Store in a dry place and, if possible, with shoe trees or paper to maintain their shape.
