Nike is letting more pairs of its self-lacing HyperAdapt sneakers out into the wild this week. On Tuesday, the brand had an unannounced release of the white/gum HyperAdapt 1.0, a shoe previously labeled as a friends and family exclusive by Nike.

The shoes only released at the brand's NikeLab 21 Mercer store in New York City. While Sole Collector was originally led to believe that the shoes released at NikeLab today had a completely white outsole setting them apart from the gum pair, eBay listings featuring the shoes show what looks to be the same gum-bottom design from before.

In addition to the covert release at NikeLab, there are more pairs of the black/silver and silver/black HyperAdapts releasing this week. The shoes will be available in more cities this time, launching on April 20 in new markets like Boston, Atlanta, Dallas, Las Vegas, and Seattle. Additionally, the shoes will be available in New York City, Chicago, Los Angeles, San Francisco, and Portland.

Nike will make the sneakers available via the Draw on Thursday, with Nike Twitter accounts in the corresponding cities announcing the releases. More detailed release info is available here.
