The outside is pure Book, with a workwear-inspired upper for added durability, while a suede collar and genuine leather across the forefoot provide more reinforcement and a familiar, plush, broken-in feel straight out of the box. The pull tab on the heel is inspired by a book spine, with numbers referencing chapters in an ongoing story.
A top-loaded Zoom Air unit in the heel provides a measure of responsive speed when taking off in the open floor and coming to sudden halts, like a 2-footed Book jump stop and pump fake around the rim. A top-loaded midfoot strong plastic plate helps keep your foot stable when making sudden movements like sharp plants, Book-like pivots and jabs in the post and opportunistic cuts. A strong plastic sidewall cage adds even more stability.
The multi-directional, herringbone-like pattern gives you sticky traction that's ideal for lateral cuts and quick changes in movement. The soft, responsive full-length foam can help you keep running and cutting in comfort.
