Design Philosophy

The embodies three major upgrades, enhancing its performance and comfort for basketball players who rely on agility and technical skills.

Upper Design

• Three-Stage Design: The upper features a new design with materials tailored to the functional needs of different areas, such as dense woven mesh for toe protection, lighter materials for breathability and adaptability, and leather at the heel for stability.

Midsole and Keel Drop

• Keel Drop Upgrade: The City 12's keel drop is reduced to approximately 8mm, aligning with the natural posture of the foot and reducing toe curvature for quicker pedal response and enhanced flexibility.
• Full-Length Bounce: The shoe continues to use full-length Bounce technology, with an added ring of translucent soft rubber to maximize foam rebound.

Midfoot Support Technology

• TPU Embedded: A special-shaped TPU runs from the arch to the forefoot, with notches at bending points to improve flexibility and provide stronger boosting capabilities.
