Li-Ning Jie Ao 2 'Taotie' — ABFV041-4

Drawn from the ancient Classic of Mountains and Seas, the Li-Ning Jie Ao 2 'Taotie' (also known as 'Gluttonous') channels the fierce appetite and protective power of the mythical Taotie beast. Released May 24, 2025, this outdoor basketball shoe features Beige / Purple tones with metallic, scale-like textures on the upper that bring the beast's imagery to life — a tank on concrete, a statement on the court.

Key Performance Features

  • Midsole Technology: Li-Ning BOOM for explosive energy return combined with Light Foam Plus for balanced, well-guarded impact protection — responsive without being overly soft.
  • Outdoor Traction: TUFF OS ultra-abrasive rubber outsole engineered for long-lasting grip on concrete, asphalt, and rough outdoor surfaces.
  • Lateral Support: Ultra Shell technology paired with a distinctive "outer claw" sidewall structure actively prevents foot rollover during sharp cuts and aggressive lateral movements.
  • Arch Stability: PROBAR LOC stabilizer embedded in the midsole connects the forefoot and heel to reduce arch fatigue and prevent torsion throughout the game.

Fit & Sizing

  • Generally true to size — the softer Ultra Shell upper conforms to the foot more easily than the first Jie Ao version
  • Slightly spacious toe box — a good option for slightly wide-footers, though not ideal for exceptionally high-volume feet
