The world of 3D-printed sneakers is advancing at a rapid rate. At Nike, the Air Max 1000.2 is allowing for faster production of the printed Air Max silhouette, and at adidas, an all-new performance basketball shoe is bringing 3D-printing technology to the basketball court.
From Behind the 3D Point Line
The adidas BB.01 is the latest hoops shoe from The Three Stripes, but instead of tying its fate to a signature star, the new pair packs in as much high-tech construction detail as possible. The BB.01 features adidas’ 4D woven material on the side panels, a 3D-printed midsole, and a padded collar design for supreme comfort on and off the hardwood. We first got a glimpse at the model back in March when adidas gave early previews of the then-unnamed 3D-printed basketball shoe.
Debuting in a Solar Red Orbit Grey colorway, the pair features a static grey colorway across the entire upper, with Solar Red on the outsole that creeps up to the midsole and slowly dissolves into grey. The shape features a one-piece armored upper with a triangular vamp, giving it the same general shape as the AE 2 and Harden Vol. 10.
