Forbidden City x Li-Ning Soft Go Max 2 - Urban Edition

Step into a fusion of imperial heritage and modern innovation with the Forbidden City x Li-Ning Soft Go Max 2 - Urban Edition – a 2025 winter release that redefines urban comfort with cultural depth. Engineered in partnership with Sichuan University’s InteClo SporBio Lab, these unisex shoes blend Forbidden City-inspired design details with cutting-edge biomechanical technology, making them a standout for urban commuters and culture enthusiasts alike.

Crafted with a premium upper of genuine cow leather + microfiber leather, the shoes exude sophistication while ensuring durability. Design highlights include a cloud-patterned U-TECH quick-lace dial (echoing imperial architectural motifs) and a debossed Li-Ning x Forbidden City emblem on the heel – subtle nods to China’s imperial heritage. Available in versatile colorways (oatmeal gray, champagne white, sleek black), they seamlessly transition from casual outings to smart-casual settings, elevating any winter wardrobe.

At the core of comfort is the COMFOAM MAX midsole – a soft, responsive foam that delivers lightweight cushioning for all-day wear. The Walking Fit last (developed from a database of over 100,000 foot samples) features a widened forefoot and optimized pressure distribution, eliminating pinching and reducing fatigue. The U-TECH quick-lace system enables hands-free, one-second adjustments, while the rubber outsole with multi-directional traction ensures grip on urban surfaces. A heel support structure prevents slipping, and perforated details enhance breathability – making these shoes a perfect blend of culture, comfort, and convenience for winter.
