With a reworked upper and traction pattern, it's lighter and more responsive than the 11. And we brought back Air Zoom cushioning, so you can always be on the attack—even in the city that never sleeps.
Behind the Design
The metallic Swoosh logo speaks to the electricity that carries from the court to the city that never sleeps. Solar burst hues hint at the volume that’s about to turn up when the sun goes down.
Zoom It
A heel Air Zoom unit helps keep you supported and springy throughout your match.
Lighter Load
We brought back the firm midfoot plastic piece seen on past Vapors to provide optimal stability and transitions when cutting from side to side. The supportive piece also allowed us to remove the rubber in the midfoot, which helps reduce the overall weight of the shoe.
Transfer the Power
A firm foot frame wraps around the supportive midfoot plate and spans from heel to toe, giving you more of a secure feel. It helps give you the stability to transfer power during aggressive slides, cuts and pivots.
Lightweight Upper
We reduced the weight of the engineered mesh while maintaining durability in high-wear zones by the toe.
Stick and Cut
The herringbone traction pattern is made of our new rubber compound that’s lighter than Vapors of the past. It allows you to decelerate, plant and back into position without feeling like you’re rounding off your cuts.
Full midfoot fit band allows you to pull the laces tighter to enhance the fit and enable faster cuts.
Midsole foam in between the plastic and rubber, which wasn’t on the Vapor 11, helps keep you light on your feet.
