Nike's basketball shoes mostly use air cushions. Why is midsole technology made in China?

Because Nike has patented air cushions for nearly 20 years, Nike has been actively developing air cushions. They like to add different pressures to each air cushion, then extend it from the heel to two, then extend it to the full-length air cushion, and finally add fibers to form ZOOM and so on. These are the results of Nike's research and development.

And Nike's technology has also improved with time. Nike has a patent for 20 years, plus the technology and technology that have been continuously improved over the past 20 years. Even if the patent expires by then. Then other brands can't keep up with Nike's technology, and Nike itself is very careful about air cushion technology, which means that so far Nike only produces air cushions in the United States, and there are even production restrictions. Because Nike itself knows the importance of air cushion to their brand, especially the good impression on shoes.

This is also one of the important factors supporting Nike's huge business volume, so this is also one of the reasons why other sports brands can't copy Nike's technical core. .

Other brands, including domestic brands, have never tried to develop this kind of air cushion, because as a sports brand, everyone knows how great the benefits of air cushion are, but they really can't imitate it, so they can't provide substantive sports skills. It can only be said that the whole can only be beautiful and useless to the brand itself. For example, once Anta imitated Nike's air cushion, but it still failed to meet the requirements. .

The reason why Nike's air cushion is so strong is that Nike's R&D investment in air cushion is crazier than other brands, and he is updating his air cushion technology from beginning to end. For example, this year, new air cushion shoes were introduced, which was also a breakthrough? .

So to sum up, this is why Nike's basketball shoes mostly use air cushions, while the domestic technology is midsole. Because domestic products can't have enough technology and patents to develop high-quality air cushions like Nike? .
