Shear thickening fluids harden upon sudden impacts

Air Max ain't dead and the DN8 is here to prove the point. With eight??count 'em??Air bubbles on-show, they're one of the most aggressive shoes we've seen in a minute!

That show-stopper sole unit is comprised of two dual-pressure Air chambers equipped with eight full-width tubes distributing cushioning to your whole foot. For the Nike anoraks, it brings to mind 2002's Air Max Plus V??famously in 50cent's 'In Da Club' film clip??which featured a similar looking tube system in the heel. The result is more Air, distributed more effectively.

The uppers feature a similarly expressive form, with fused overlays swooping up from each Air bag's window to reveal mesh underlays below.
