Li-Ning Ultra Light 2025 "Shanhaiguan" ABAV007-43 - Basketball Shoes Men White
Product Overview
The Li-Ning ULTRALIGHT 2025 (Model: ABAV007) represents the pinnacle of lightweight basketball engineering, delivering an astonishingly low weight of just 258 grams per shoe. Designed for speed-dominant guards and wings, these low-top performance shoes fuse revolutionary BOOM FIBER technology with dual-density LIGHT FOAM ULTRA cushioning to create a featherlight yet explosively responsive court weapon.
Revolutionary Upper Technology
BOOM FIBER Silk Construction
Crafted from a next-generation thermoplastic elastomer processed through advanced spinning technology, the upper mimics the flexibility and comfort of natural silk while delivering superior durability. The monofilament mesh and TPU yarn weave creates a semi-transparent aesthetic with targeted support zones that adapt to your foot's natural movement without deformation.
- Adaptive Fit: Integrates with advanced weaving technology for a breathable, sock-like wrap
- Anti-Collision Toe: Reinforced design minimizes abrasion and protects against impact
- Heat-Pressed Reinforcements: Strategic overlays provide structure without adding weight
Advanced Cushioning System
LIGHT FOAM ULTRA + Boom Foam (䨻)
The dual-layer midsole combines LIGHT FOAM ULTRA in the forefoot for responsive energy return with Li-Ning's proprietary Boom Foam in the heel for stable impact protection. Li Ningchao Technology further reduces midsole weight through innovative process preparation, creating finer foam cell structures for a smoother, more refined performance profile.
- Energy Return: Dense, uniform bubble structure provides abundant kinetic energy reserves
- Weight Reduction: Significantly lighter than traditional EVA midsoles
- Targeted Tuning: Cushing parameters optimized for competitive basketball scenarios
Outsole Performance & Traction
The X-pattern rubber outsole features a dense, razor-thin herringbone pattern engineered for superior grip on clean indoor courts. A carbon-fiber torsion plate (hybrid TPU in some variants) provides midfoot rigidity and torsional stability without compromising the shoe's ultralight philosophy.
- Traction Pattern: Multi-directional grip optimized for quick cuts and pivots
- Wear Resistance: Translucent rubber compound prioritizes grip; recommended for indoor use only
- Anti-Rollover Design: Curved rocker geometry and low-profile construction reduce rollover risk
Athlete Profile & Fit Guidance
Ideal For:
- Position: Point Guards, Shooting Guards, explosive Wings
- Playstyle: Speed-focused athletes requiring first-step acceleration and rapid direction changes
- Weight Range: Optimized for 60-80kg (132-176 lbs) players
