From fresh-faced rookie to raising a banner in the rafters, Giannis has always kept it a buck. This design honors the Freak’s franchise’s rich heritage while the special gold Swoosh logo nods to the championship glory Giannis helped bring to a fan base that’s head over heels for the MVP. Stacked with stunning speed for super-quick first steps, stuffed with that sort of springy cushioning that can withstand the all-game grind, the Freak 5 can help you channel your inner Greek Freak. Hit the Gas A top-loaded Zoom Air unit in the forefoot provides energy return and responsiveness, putting force into your first step so you can go from the perimeter to the rim with ease. Stay Contained For all that force and velocity, the Greek Freak needs a design that stays with him, no matter what the defense throws at him. Our internal containment system gives you a more dynamic fit system that limits movement inside the shoe without feeling constricting. Comfort for 4 Quarters Springy foam midsole has a responsive underfoot ride. It adds a soft, comfortable sensation to help keep you moving and energized all game long. Stick and Cut Advanced traction in the heel enhances your on-court feel. It helps you stick to the ground for a microsecond while the other directional traction helps you dig your toe in and toe out of it.
