Nike Air Zoom GT Cut 2 “Sabrina Ionescu” Celestine Blue DJ6015-005

Description

After celebrating in the champagne showers of the USA Women’s National Team’s fourth-straight FIBA World Cup Title in early October, Sabrina Ionescu now has her eyes set on aiding in the debut of the Beaverton-based brands latest performance hoops silhouette – the Nike Zoom GT Cut 2.

Receiving her very first WNBA P.E. by way of the debut GT Cut, the successor enjoys a team-friendly shading of white fit with jet-black contrasts bearing its laces, sock liner, Swoosh and molded heel clip. Ever-so-slight lilacs brush colorful accents across its jacquard upper and mudguard whereas the tongue logos enjoy a more vibrantly-hued violet scheme.

Unlike its predecessor, it features a new traction design featuring grooves that separate and snap back to help players quickly make cuts on the court, refined heel counter, a craved-out midsole that reduces the weight of the shoe, and a heel Zoom Air unit.

The Nike Air Zoom GT Cut 2 features redesigned elements including a new traction design, refined heel shape, carved-out midsole, a heel Zoom Air unit, full-length Zoom Air strobel, and a drop-in React foam sockliner.

The GT Series is completely untethered from traditional ways of thinking.

The traction pattern is one of those elements that was generated at a micro-level insight from the NSRL after studying the relationship between court and shoe.

The teams were able to drive a new innovation that gives the athletes the right amount of friction on court so they can cut faster, rotate quicker and adjust their footwork with enhanced precision.

ABOUT NIKE GT CUT 2:

The key update to this latest rendition of the performance hoop shoe is the traction design featuring grooves that separate and snap back to help players quickly make cuts on the court. Other changes to the Air Zoom G. A brand new molded heel is also introduced, while a Smear Traction 1.0 pattern, alluding to how the soles of the shoe can smear across the hardwood during hard cuts, appears at the fore-foot. Also making their return from the first G. Cut silhouette is the full-length articulated Zoom Air strobel unit and the drop-in React foam sockliner.

“The G. Series is completely untethered from traditional ways of thinking,” Ross Klein, the senior creative director of Nike Performance Footwear, said. “The traction pattern is one of those elements that was generated at a micro-level insight from the Nike Sport Research Lab after studying the relationship between court and shoe.
