Li-Ning Gamma 1 "GRB Gamma Ray Burst" - Basketball Shoes Men's Purple

The Li-Ning Gamma 1 "GRB Gamma Ray Burst" colorway (often referred to simply as "Gamma Ray Burst" or "Purple") is a highly vibrant, high-performance basketball shoe in the flagship Gamma series. The design captures the intense energy of its namesake celestial event. 

Design and Aesthetics

· Color Scheme: The shoe features a dynamic purple base, complemented by accents of vibrant, shining blue and pink to mimic a cosmic explosion.

· Inspiration: The design is inspired by "gamma-ray bursts" (GRB), the most powerful energy bodies in the universe, which aligns with the shoe's focus on speed and explosive performance.

· Finish: The use of photolithography technology on the TPU elements creates a dazzling, light-shifting gloss 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 the court: 

· Cushioning: Features a full-length Li-Ning BOOM technology midsole, a high-resilience PEBAX foam that offers superior cushioning and responsive energy return.

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

· Lightweight: A single shoe in US size 9 weighs below 300 grams (around 295g), 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.
