Pleating on a satin upper reinforces the durable construction of the shoe for a floor lockdown grip. The Achilles tendon is hugged by various foam inserts in the heel area. It’s also breathable to make the moisture wick due to the special liner in the shoe. For the midsole, the heel employs cutting edge Articulated Propulsion Technology that makes the athlete have a way to propel forward with stunning explosiveness. The split heel allows further flexibility in moving to various positions at one time. The Carbon fiber plate, TPU (Thermo Plastic Urethane), and Articulated forefoot Zoom Air unit cushions foot to maximize comfort. The outsole grooves fit with the grooves of the foot for further traction.
