AeroKnit
X1
Built for explosive movement.
Engineered layer by layer.
Purposeful materials.
Elite performance.
Six layers. Each one chosen for a specific function. Nothing decorative, nothing redundant — every material earns its place in the build.
Adaptive Knit Upper
A single-piece engineered knit that contours to your foot on contact. No seams, no pressure points — just a structure that responds to your movement.
Lockdown Lace System
Dynamic cable eyelets distribute lacing tension evenly across the midfoot, eliminating micro-slip without over-compression. Lace once, move without limits.
Breathable Inner Sock
Moisture-wicking seamless liner bonded directly to the upper. Maintains a consistent internal climate from tip-off to final buzzer — no bunching, no friction.
Impact Foam Midsole
Proprietary open-cell foam compound absorbs 94% of peak impact force on landing and returns 42% of that energy as forward propulsion within 80 milliseconds.
Carbon Stability Plate
A full-length carbon fibre plate embedded in the midsole provides torsional rigidity during lateral cuts while preserving forefoot flexibility for natural toe-off.
Grip-Control Outsole
Multi-directional herringbone traction compound across 11 independent flex zones. Rated 9.6 out of 10 in a 40-player blind traction test on competition hardwood.
