Cushioned Comfort A full-length Max Air unit in a low-profile midsole combines with a foam wrap-up for support when you’re moving in lateral directions. The Air is specifically placed in the forefoot to help reduce weight and increase responsiveness. It helps with impact absorption while supporting the smooth transition from heel to toe. Also, it provides side-to-side stability and helps harness and direct your force. Reinforced Materials Breathable mesh provides a lightweight, conforming fit in the upper, from the webbing that harnesses your forefoot to the external molded pieces that help lock in your heel. Reinforced stitching along the sides helps the shoe fit snugly for full-foot containment. Aggressive Traction The rubber outsole is split and partially cut out under the arch to help it bend and flex while helping reduce its overall weight. A classic herringbone pattern adds durable traction.
