The stitching and materials used in the Freak 2 are vast improvements from the first generation Freak 1s.
They also designed a more aerodynamic sneaker for speed. The sole balances firm and sturdy and doesn’t feel clumsy to wear. This allows for more stability and more explosivity.
An outrigger is the outside of the sneaker sole that protrudes out, giving the user a broader base. They utilized an outrigger design on the sole, which forms a wider front section. Once you become acquainted with its nooks and crannies, however, you become impressed with all of the innovations Nike incorporated.īecause of the combination of speed, quickness, and strength that Giannis plays the game with, his shoe needed to address many different aspects simultaneously-and they did just that. What I love about the shoe’s design is that it initially looks unassuming. Nike sees in Giannis a new archetype for the modern athlete, which means the sneaker they created with him has to be fit for a Freak. He plays at a speed and ferocity rarely seen in the league, and his movements are so complex that we knew his signature shoe would be unique. Reigning NBA Defensive Player of the Year and MVP Giannis Antetokuonmpo is called The Freak for good reason. My comprehensive review of Giannis Antetokounmpo’s Nike Zoom Freak 2s will cover the ins and outs of one of the year’s best sneakers. When you wear the same pair of sneakers for an entire college season (I played in a Division III school without a big-time sneaker budget), you form opinions about which sneakers just feel right (and some that definitely don’t). As a former college basketball player and someone who has played the game for over three decades, I cannot overstate the importance of good sneakers.
