One step can make all the difference when it’s game point, like a sneaky successful backdoor layup that’s blocked if not for a sliver of separation, or a last-second leap at your opponent that sends their 3 clanking off the rim. Nike used insights from female athletes to make the G.T. Hustle 2 soft, supportive and lightweight—which every basketball player needs. Loaded with cushioning in the core and Zoom Air spring in the forefoot, this shoe helps you stay moving forward—from check-up to “that’s game.” Sprint, stop and score from end to end, focusing on dominating, not deteriorating, down the stretch.
The full-length foam is perfect for providing cushioning at high speed, and helps keep your foot from moving around in the shoe. Nike paired the foam with a molded insole that makes for a potent combination of soft responsiveness. They stitched a full-length Zoom Air unit to the bottom of the upper to give you a propulsive feeling down the floor and optimal energy return from the 1st step you take to the last. Built like a modern running shoe, the minimal upper helps keep the shoe as lightweight as possible. The padded, mid-high collar adds support around the ankle without sacrificing agility, while the waffle herringbone traction pattern offers great bite and court feel.
