The Li-Ning Gamma 1 "Blu-Ray" colorway (also referred to as "Blue Light") is a vibrant, high-performance basketball shoe in a predominantly blue color scheme. It is designed to capture the essence of a blue ray phenomenon, where stronger stimuli result in stronger blue light, relating this to the shoe's powerful on-court performance. 

Design and Aesthetics

· Color Scheme: The shoe features a vibrant blue base, with accents inspired by the sky and ocean, as well as blue carbon fiber detailing and the Li-Ning logo in a contrasting color.

· Inspiration: The "Blu-Ray" or "Blue Tears" phenomenon where, like the Gamma 1 shoe under strong external stimuli, it volatilizes more powerful performance.

· Finish: Special nano-optical technology and electroplating are used on the accents to give the blue color a dazzling luster that changes appearance when viewed from different angles. 

Key Features and Technology

This colorway shares the core performance features of the Gamma 1, designed as a lightweight "racing machine" for agility and speed: 

· Cushioning: Features a full-length Li-Ning BOOM technology midsole, made from high-resilience PEBAX material for superior energy return and shock absorption.

· Propulsion System: The Carbon Core Drive System integrates a beveled, full-length carbon fiber plate within the BOOM foam to provide stability and powerful energy release for quick cuts and acceleration.

· Lightweight: A single shoe in US size 9 weighs below 300 grams, making it one of the lightest professional basketball shoes available.

· Traction and Support: The shoe is engineered for stability and includes an upgraded anti-slip outsole for secure grip on various surfaces.
