Basketball shoe See how the grooves split in the middle of the outsole? They give you more flexibility to pull off lateral movements such as the euro step more easily, whether you're in transition or pivoting around a defender on the rim. We've made the midsole foam softer than the Giannis Immortality 2, for a more flexible underfoot experience when sprinting the ground and filling the roadways. A synthetic midfoot strap helps keep your foot stable as you move from side to side. The upper uses a lightweight, breathable mesh to keep your foot cool. Oversized pull loop on the heel helps you slide into the shoe quickly and easily.
