Li-Ning Gamma 1 "Silver Toad" - Basketball Shoes Mens Silver

The Li-Ning Gamma 1 "Silver Toad" is a limited edition, high-performance basketball shoe that serves as a flagship model in the Li-Ning Gamma series. It was released around April 2024 and features a sleek, predominantly silver color scheme. 

Design and Aesthetics

The "Silver Toad" colorway is known for its striking and premium look: 

· Color: The shoe features a predominantly silver color scheme that covers the entire upper. The Li-Ning logo on the side is accented in glossy silver, making it highly recognizable.

· Inspiration: The design draws inspiration from the moon's nickname, "Silver Toad," a reference symbolizing profound cultural heritage.

· Finish: The use of photolithography technology for the TPU and identifying details creates a dazzling gloss and ensures the finish is durable and will not peel off. 

Key Features and Technology

This limited edition colorway includes the same high-performance specifications as other Gamma 1 models, emphasizing speed and agility:

· Lightweight Construction: A single US size 9 shoe weighs below 300 grams (around 295g), making it one of the lightest professional basketball shoes available.

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

· Stability and Propulsion: The Carbon Core Drive System integrates a beveled, full-length carbon fiber plate within the BOOM foam. This system provides stability, anti-torsion support, and explosive energy release for quick cuts and acceleration.

· Traction: The outsole is made of highly wear-resistant materials designed to provide stable, anti-slip traction on a variety of court surfaces.
