Flywire
With a new season will come a new look, as Nike have unveiled their eagerly anticipated 2012 NFL uniforms! Rather than painting each team with the same brush, Nike left it up to the 32 teams to choose their own adventure, resulting in the Seahawks summoning an all-new look, while Chicago and Kansas City enjoy subtle flips to their fits. The Raiders, Packers, Eagles, Falcons and Panthers elected to stick with the classic jersey construction, while the rest of the league will take to the turf in lightweight jerseys incorporating Flywire for a lockdown fit, mesh ventilation for cooling, and four-way stretch materials for mobility. Check the pics below, and get to
Nike Inc for all the info.
Nike's Lunar foam cushioning platform debuted during the huge Olympic push of 2008 alongside Flywire on the original Zoom Hyperdunk, but it's taken three generations to get LunarLon just right to stand alone as the sole, well, sole stuff, for one of Nike Basketball's performance releases. And there's no Flywire on these, but a super-breathable featherweight Hyperfuse upper means the Nike Lunar HyperGamer will be able to compete with the Swoosh's top two non-signature series. Here's a look at the Lunar HyperGamer in four new colorways, a set that's done half in Oklahoma City Thunder colorways, perhaps foreshadowing sneaker journeyman Russell Westbrook's adoption of the model when the NBA season finally begins. There's also one you'd call out for being a Sacramento Kings colorup along with one classic 'Blackout' look, so click through to see 'em all, let us know how they rank and stick with Sneaker News for the US release dates.

zoom Roger Federer is ramping up for another crack at the elusive French Open crown. Will it be another Nadal v Federer final, or is Djokovic going to step up and steal the show?

Combining Flywire and Lunarlon to full effect, keep an eye out for them when the tournament commences on May 17th.
