Breaking Down Jeremy Lin's Nike Zoom Hyperfuse Low iD All-Star Shoes

Andrew KulhaJun 7, 2018

Jeremy Lin may not officially be a NBA All-Star, but he's got to have even the biggest names in the league jealous of the custom Nike kicks he wore in the Rising Stars Challenge.

These shoes are fantastic, and Lin easily had the most swagger on the court, even though he only scored two points and notched just one assist.

All he had to do is show up and show off his feet.

Let's take a look and break down the shoes that has everybody going "linsane."

Jeremy Lin Custom Nike Zoom Hyperfuse Low iD

These custom J-Lin kicks come across as very sleek, and that's a testament to the brand as a whole. It may look simple from far away, but trust me, with the mesh on the side and top of the toes, his last name on the tongue and the No. 17 almost watermarked under the ankle, this shoe is very intricate.

Wow Factor: 7 out of 10

These shoes are fantastic when you can actually take a close-up look at them, but they lose some points with me because they don't really stick out from a distance. You can tell that Lin had custom shoes on during the Rising Stars Challenge, but there was nothing flashy or that noticeable about them from a distance. The drop in points is significant, but a closer look at the shoe shows how epic it really is.

Design: 10 out of 10

The design of this shoe is sleek and sexy, and the custom New York Knicks colors look awesome when put together. Blue and orange is a visually appealing combination, but then Nike adds in white on the bottoms, mesh, wording and inside, and that puts it over the top. The splash of black on the side really adds contrasts and helps the other colors stick out.

The mesh allows the shoe to be breathable and light, and the custom No. 17 watermark on the side is incredibly cool. Finally, the orange laces are bold and bright, and they bring the whole package together.

Overall Swag Grade: 9 out of 10

This shoe would have gotten a perfect swag grade if it was just a little bit bolder and appealing from far away. It's still a really sick looking shoe, especially when you can check out all the intricacies up close. The design, style and color scheme is second to none in my opinion.

Lin obviously has the swagger on the court, and his shoes did just about everything they could to back that up.
