The Nike Air Unlimited was one of the casual sneaker editions that thanks to its unique design marked the decade of the 90's and became one of the brand's favorites, mainly when we saw them on the feet of Chris Webber and Grant Hill, although they were originally designed for David Robinson.
Now Nike is reviving its classics with the help of modern technologies, to offer its fans a sneaker with a contemporary style but with better functionality. Thus, the Nike Air Unlimited is back to be among the best options in basketball, with a style that has stood the test of time.
The sneakers return with the same features that made them famous years ago. These predecessors of the Soldier 9 and 10, feature a neoprene ankle strap that adjusts with a Velcro strap that allows the shoe to be attached to the ankle for better support during movement.
This support is complemented by two other synthetic overlays that have been placed in the heel area and on the sides of the shoe, which are also closed by Velcro straps that adjust in the ankle area. These overlays allow the shoe to be adjusted according to the needs of the wearer and allow a better closure in the midfoot to give protection to the area.
The rest of the upper is made of a synthetic material with micro-perforations on the sides and toe area to facilitate ventilation inside the shoe. The fit is complemented with the traditional lacing system.
The midsole of the Nike Air Unlimited features Nike Air technology, an air capsule that allows for better shock absorption and offers the right cushioning for these street basketball shoes.
The soles of these shoes feature a high-strength rubber in a fairly thick layer that offers greater durability against the wear and tear that can occur while practicing the sport. The herringbone pattern chosen for the soles offers good traction and foot glide but also facilitates braking.
The Air Unlimited is the reinvention of a 90's classic that retains its style and comes to win back the longtime fans of this line of sneakers, but also to win over the modern generations.
