Li-Ning Gamma 1 "Galaxy" - Basketball Shoes Men's Black

The Li-Ning Gamma 1 "Galaxy" is a high-performance, lightweight basketball shoe in a predominantly black colorway with accents of silver, fluorescent green, and purple, designed to resemble a star-studded night sky. 

Design and Aesthetics

· Color Scheme: The "Galaxy" colorway features a mostly black base, complemented by silver and touches of vibrant green and purple to create an aesthetic reminiscent of cosmic nebulae and distant stars.

· Inspiration: Named after powerful "gamma-ray bursts," the design draws a parallel between the immense energy of cosmic phenomena and the shoe's explosive on-court performance.

· Aesthetic: It offers a modern take on a classic "Dark Warrior" style, resulting in a sleek, high-contrast look suitable for serious gameplay and casual wear. 

Key Features and Technology

The Li-Ning Gamma 1 series is built as a "racing machine" for speed, agility, and powerful energy return:

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

· Cushioning and Responsiveness: It features a full-length Li-Ning BOOM technology midsole, made from high-resilience, compression-resistant PEBAX material, which provides excellent shock absorption and responsive energy return.

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

Traction: The upgraded outsole ensures long-lasting wear and excellent anti-slip grip on various surfaces, including both indoor and outdoor courts.
