The squeak of sneakers pivoting, running, jumping on the polished hard court, the sound of the buzzer at the last second, the sweat running down your face during the heat of game play. Basketball is a sensory experience filled with the sounds of the crowd, the feel of the ball, the satisfying swoosh of the net. Why not find a sneaker that speaks to the tactile elements of the game?

The latest edition lands in men’s sizes at Hibbett | City Gear beginning March 1 outfitted in a “Nike University” colorway that features Total Orange, Cone, Black and Phantom.

There’s lots to love about this Nike shoe and not just because the vivid colorway packs a punch both on and off the court. Dressed primarily in Total Orange, the shoe’s upper mixes breathable, lightweight, durable materials including Jump Wire that forms a loosely woven mesh and neoprene. A layer of white rubber and an orange coating reinforce the orange toe box, with “:::001” and a Swoosh adorning the vamp.

Zoom Air in the forefoot and heel, along with a Zoom Strobel system, Cushlon foam and a Pebax frame contribute to the exceptional stability and comfort of this men’s basketball shoe.
