Get to every ball with blistering speed in the Nike Zoom Vapor 12 Hypersmash NRG men's tennis shoes for hard court. With a reworked upper and herringbone traction pattern, it's lighter and more responsive than the Vapor 11, and the returned heel Air Zoom unit keeps you springy on the attack. This special design celebrates the hardwood-to-hard-court crossover, taking cues from the iconic Hyperdunk 2008 colourway blended with Vapor 12 technology.
More benefits
- The full midfoot fit band lets you cinch the laces tighter for a locked-in feel and faster cuts.
- Added midsole foam between the plastic chassis and rubber outsole — absent on the Vapor 11 — keeps you light on your feet.

Throwback Theme
This design celebrates the crossover from the hardwood to the hard court with colours synonymous with reclaimed world glory. A haptic print recreates the iconic Flywire look along the upper.
Zoom it
A heel Air Zoom unit helps keep you supported and springy throughout your match.
Stick and cut
The herringbone traction pattern uses a new lighter rubber compound that lets you decelerate, plant and recover without rounding off your cuts.
Lighter load
The returned firm midfoot plastic chassis provides optimal stability for side-to-side transitions, while removing midfoot rubber reduces overall weight.
Transfer the power
A firm foot frame wraps the supportive midfoot plate from heel to toe for a secure feel, giving you the stability to transfer power during aggressive slides, cuts and pivots.
Lightweight upper
Engineered mesh weight is reduced while maintaining durability in high-wear zones by the toe.
