New generation Biti’s Hunter – 2K18 The Evolution: Taller, Quieter, Cooler

Biti’s Hunter seems to have not shown signs of slowing down with the ambition to stir up the domestic sneakers market in 2018. After two “bombardment” in the first half of the year, Biti’s Hunter x Marvel international collaboration collection and recently BST Shades of Dark – Cooler You with style guide coordinated with H&M building, the guy “Hunter” decided to shoot the next cannon with Biti’s Hunter 2K18 The Evolution collection.

Introduced as a “whole new generation” with improvements in technology and design to deliver a Higher, Quieter, and Cooler experience compared to previous versions, two new versions with the title Biti’s Hunter X Liteflex 2k18 and Biti’s Hunter Litefoam 2k18 will be evaluated, analyzed in detail by EACHSHOES and shared the feeling when wearing shoes on their feet.

True to the introduction of a “whole new generation”, the two new versions of the two basic Biti’s Hunter X and Biti’s Hunter product lines feature both design and technology improvements and new color schemes, but still ensuring sportiness, dynamism and targeting many classes of consumers at affordable prices. At a glance, you can see that the needle lines, stitches on the shoes are well made, regular and careful. The lines in the logo and brand name are quite sharp.

✴ Biti’s Hunter X LiteFlex 2K18

The first impression of the distinctive appearance of the new generation Biti’s Hunter X LiteFlex 2K18 lies in the LiteFlex base technology with “height up to 5cm”. Not to mention technology, this exclusive sole has a grooved design that reminds me of the midsole midsole of the adidas Tubular shoe. It can be seen clearly that Biti’s intention to “transform” and move towards a “bouncy” and modern style in every detail, starting with the midsole sole. It is true that this new and different stand alone has created a feeling of freshness as well as certainly necessary for this already too familiar version.

In terms of technology and functionality, the LiteFlex stand with new Injection Phylon technology (developed on top of a traditional Phylon base) feels lighter, more resilient to the wearer (introduced as a lightweight 204g left and increase elasticity by more than 40%). However, the level of perceiving the real difference is not too pronounced compared to previous versions. Those who carry multiple versions and really pay close attention to their every step will be able to feel this improvement. Thus, it can be concluded that the midsole sole is still the strongest point of the shoe thanks to the advantages of lightness, smoothness, enough, durable and beautiful.

The outsole outsole has also been taken time by the Biti’s design team to research and change to increase the aesthetics as well as the necessary “cool”.

Following on the most obvious new look of this Biti’s Hunter X pair, there is also a TPU plastic cage frame with a completely new shape that contributes to the firmness and strength required for the overall design of the shoe. This is a new detail that is highly appreciated by the writer because it has significantly increased the personality for this product as well as assuring the shape and support of the heel during strong movements.

Regarding the upper body, the material is still Liteknit, 4-way stretch fabric cap that is so familiar to us. Feeling to the touch and carry on the foot is firm and seasoned. But the hard, rough feeling of being worn the first few times remains unresolved and is still present. Similar to previous versions, after about 4 or 5 break-ins, the knit fabric will become softer and more comfortable. In addition, a plus point is the one-piece upper design detail with the sole of the shoe which is loved and appreciated by many people for ensuring the ease, quickness when wearing and wearing the shoe remains intact.

Another detail that has been an indispensable, always appreciated and will definitely accompany the Biti’s Hunter X version is the insole sole made of antibacterial fiber fabric and integrated six-point massage technology. soles of the feet, maintaining a smooth feeling.

✴ Biti’s Hunter LiteFoam 2K18

The flagship Biti’s Hunter product line also continues to be upgraded with LiteFoam’s base technology, upgrading the “light as flying” experience that is loved by Hunter fans with a base height of up to 4.3cm and elasticity> 40%. . This will definitely be a popular shoe version that helps the wearer improve the height significantly but still ensures the necessary lightness (lighter than the Hunter X due to the absence of a plastic frame). In addition, another plus is the new design in the middle of the midsole base with diamond patterns that create a dynamic, contemporary feel compared to previous versions.

In addition to a sturdy, rigid heel pad, the both sides of the knit shoe body are also held in place with glue and thickened to provide a feeling of stability and keep the foot from slipping under vigorous exercise. A major downside is that even though made from knit was introduced as “maximum air permeability”, the feeling of stew and squash persisted and this seems to be a weak spot ever on basic Hunter pairs. . The shoe form still retains a modern, slim, acceptable level, but has not had any special and obvious innovation. The Hunter line’s stylized logo remains the same on both sides of the shoe, combined with the basic lacing system on the reed separate with the shoe body and pulltab at the back.

It’s a pity that this new entry-level Hunter’s entry-level pad still doesn’t feature the six-point soles massage technology (probably to guarantee a lower price point than the Hunter X series).

Opening color schemes for the first sale include “Black Charcoal” and “Purple Phoenix” for the popular edition (priced at VND680,000 for both men and women) and “Stardust Night” and “Sunrise Orange” for for version X (with a price of 899,000 VND for men and 829,000 VND for women). In particular, the color scheme “Sunrise Orange” inspired by the dawn orange light is the most eye-catching and prominent.

Currently, products are available in Biti’s stores nationwide; Biti’s Hunter Independent Store Hanoi, Da Nang, TP. HCM City; website bitis.com.vn, along with e-commerce sites.
