1. Core Performance Technologies

* LI-NING GCU Ground Control Unit: A new type of cast polyurethane outsole with a special molecular structure, balancing exceptional slip resistance (even in wet conditions) and wear resistance—4-5x more durable than standard outsoles, solving the traditional trade-off between grip and longevity.
* LI-NING Ji Technology: Seamless, glue-free midsole integration that maximizes the rebound performance of the polymer core drive system. Delivers instant energy return for cuts, sprints, and jumps, empowering multi-directional movement on the court.
* Full-Length Supercritical Foam + Balanced 3D Nylon Plate: Integrated structure for clear ground feedback, rapid response, and smooth transitions—enhances propulsion and stability during intense gameplay.
* Supercritical Insole: Works in tandem with Ji Technology to optimize rebound and ensure a snug, adaptive fit for all-game comfort.

2. Design & Functionality

* Mid-Cut Silhouette: Balances flexibility and lightweight design, reducing restrictions while providing targeted ankle support for dynamic movements.
* Black/Silver Color Scheme: Pays homage to the "prototype testing shoes"—symbolizing focus on technology, respect for professional feedback, and exploration of future basketball performance.
* Integrated Tongue & Padded Collar: Surrounding foam padding for a secure, comfortable fit that enhances lockdown and reduces friction during play.
* Parametric Hollow Outsole Pattern: Enhances grip across different court surfaces, ensuring strong multi-directional traction and rapid responsiveness.
* Dual-Layer 3D Printed Logo: Boosts on-court visibility and brand recognition.

3. Professional Spirit & Inspiration

The shoe draws inspiration from "sample test shoes"—representing thousands of trials, data feedback, and precision adjustments between the product team and professional athletes. It’s a tribute to the unglamorous process of refinement, embodying the belief that great performance is forged through relentless iteration.
