Here are the Holiday 2012 colors of the CP3. This is the sixth sneaker in the Chris Paul Nike franchise and no doubt, the lightest. These sneakers feature Hyperfuse technology which provide an almost seamless upper, Podulon forefoot for lightweight and responsive cushioning, and a Jordan XIII-esque molded Phylon midsole, just to pay homage to Chris Paul’s favorite (and stolen), sneakers while he was growing up.
The blue and red are the Olympic colorway that were released earlier this month and the other two are on their way. I personally like these sneakers a lot. I like the fact that Nike is back in the business of making technical performance basketball sneakers that I can wear every day. It almost feels like a throwback to the late 80′s when design and technology were perfectly in sync.
The black and red I can live without, and the brightness of the blue and red doesn’t bother me at all. I think the star of the pack are the white ones though. They look almost like a bad-ass old-school ACG to me with a little touch of the Jordan inspiration on the bottom. These sneakers feel like the future in your hands too. Dragonfly inspiration with Hyperfuse create a beautiful lightweight CP3 that I would love to have shipped to me in a size 11. Thanks in advance.
