Giannis’ internal engine revs from deep within, requiring a shoe that can harness his superpower abilities. Enter the Freak 5. Stacked with stunning speed for super-quick first steps, stuffed with that sort of springy cushioning that can withstand the all-game grind, his signature shoe lets you feel like the Greek Freak. Blow past your opponent en route to the rim, while sticking with quick-twitch ball-handlers when a defensive stand decides the game. Men's basketball shoes.
• A top-loaded Zoom Air unit in the forefoot provides energy return and responsiveness, putting force into your first step so you can go from the perimeter to the rim with ease.
• For all that force and velocity, the Greek Freak needs a design that stays with him, no matter what the defense throws at him. Our internal containment system gives you a more dynamic fit system that limits movement inside the shoe without feeling constricting.
• Springy foam midsole has a responsive underfoot ride. It adds a soft, comfortable sensation to help keep you moving and energized all game long.
• Advanced traction in the heel enhances your on-court feel. It helps you stick to the ground for a microsecond while the other directional traction helps you dig your toe in and toe out of it.
