Nike air cushion can actually be divided into four categories: Nike air cushion, Max air cushion, Zoom air cushion and low-pressure Nike air cushion.
Artie has been mainly cushioning glue for so many years, occasionally.
Adiprene- adidas damping technology. AdiPRENE is an elastic material designed to provide shock absorption for the wearer when walking, and is usually used in the heel part of shoes. AdiPRENE+a—— Didas-Didas damping technology. AdiPRENE+ is similar to AdiPRENE technology, except that AdiPRENE+ is more flexible and usually aims to provide better forefoot strength.
AdiPRENE+- Made of the same material as the visible foam material, it is placed in the forefoot of the traditional midsole as a cushion, which has the functions of shock absorption and rebound.
AdiPRENE- dense and consistent EVA material, placed in the area where the heel is impacted, can absorb the impact and better disperse the pressure.
A3- energy conversion system, which is composed of independent mold components on TPU tray, distributes the surplus energy reasonably, and can play the role of buffering, guiding and propelling during the whole stride, which is somewhat similar to Nike's shox technology.
Answer? Structure-Compared with traditional cushioning systems, structural midsole components can provide more stable and long-term cushioning and support. According to different sports types, sports stages and athletes' physique, these midsole components also add special cushioning protection and stability functions.
GCS Road-a functional midsole that can gradually adapt to the ground conditions, improve the action control effect and slow down the foot pronation speed-torsion-an insert in the middle of the sole, which can provide flexibility and torsion between the forefoot and the hindfoot, and also improve stability. The torsion system not only provides support for the middle of the sole, but also realizes the natural rotation between the rear sole and the forefoot.
