How NIKE introduced their FLY KNIT
Did you ever imagine yarn being an high
tech design material? Nike Flyknit is an extraordinary new technology to create
running footwear by knitting yarns. The idea was to create a shoe whit the
characteristics of a sock, that is comfortable fit and light weight but, at the
same time they want to guarantee Nike high performance standards. So they
enginereed an extra-light polyester yarn in a knitted seamless structure, with
different density layers giving specific elasticity levels to obtain a
featherweight, formfitting upper.
As Nike stated “The result is precision engineering in its purest form,
performance on display. Every element has a purpose: resulting in one of the
lightest, best fitting running shoes NIKE has ever made.”
