Born from the Track. Built for the Court.
The Volanti "Rocket Air" (VT-090-601) is the flagship low-top basketball shoe from Volanti — a brand rooted in track and field performance. Dubbed the "Spec King" in the hoop community, it bridges the explosive forward propulsion of a running shoe with the rigid lateral stability required on the court. At just ~300g (EU41), it delivers a seamless second-skin sensation built for quick guards and slashing forwards who live for sudden changes of direction.

Core Technologies
- V-Bounce Midsole & Rocket Air Cushion: Full-length V-Bounce supercritical bead-foamed cushioning with an oversized square-shaped nitrogen air unit (Rocket Air) embedded in the forefoot — instant, snappy responsiveness with an impact-cushioning ceiling capable of supporting players up to 100 kg
- V1300 Military-Grade Carbon Fiber Plate: A 10-layer dual-forked carbon plate runs through the chassis and extends into the forefoot, creating an aggressive rocker geometry that delivers a strong "snap-back" feel and catapults you forward on your first step
- TPU Mono-Mesh Upper: High-tensile TPU woven mono-mesh — paper-thin, breathable, and virtually stretch-resistant, delivering rigid lateral containment during heavy crossovers while keeping weight to an absolute minimum
- GCU Liquid Rubber Outsole: Premium GCU liquid rubber compound with a traction pattern that bites exceptionally well on both pristine indoor hardwoods and dust-laden PU courts
"Neptune Blue" Colorway
Drawing inspiration from the deep, mysterious hues of the outer solar system, the Neptune Blue colorway features sleek electroplated reflective accents that emphasize its premium, high-speed silhouette — impossible to miss under the lights.
Fit & Player Profile
- Weight: ~300g (EU41) — among the lightest in its performance class
- Fit: Narrow, low-profile race fit with a second-skin sensation
- Upper: TPU mono-mesh for rigid lateral containment and minimal weight
- Best For: Light-to-medium weight quick guards, slashing forwards, and athletes preparing for intensive physical fitness testing (shuttle runs, agility drills, vertical jumps)
📐 Sizing Guide
📌 Core Sizing Verdict
- Narrow / Standard Feet (Lockdown Fit): Go True to Size (TTS) based on your actual foot length (CM). It will feel very snug during the first few wears until the upper and midsole mold to your feet.
- Wide Feet / High Arches / Prefer Comfort: Go one full size up. The rigid TPU mesh upper has zero stretch, and the wide carbon plate restricts forefoot expansion — staying true-to-size will cause painful pinky toe pinching.
📐 Size Conversion Reference (vs. Nike / Li-Ning)
- Your regular shoe is EUR 42 (26.5 cm) → Choose Volanti EUR 42
- Your regular shoe is EUR 42.5 (27.0 cm) → Order up to Volanti EUR 43 (27.5 cm)
- Your regular shoe is EUR 43 (27.5 cm) → Choose Volanti EUR 43 (tight fit) or EUR 44 (wide feet)
💡 Pro Tip: Check the inner tongue of your current favorite basketball shoe and match the CM length value to the Volanti size chart for the most accurate fit.
