Paul George can do it all on the court, from driving to the hole to dishing to the hoop. He can catch and shoot as well, and his game is smooth and often devastating. His signature shoe is built with responsive foam, making it feel light on his feet when he walks. The shoe is a great option for his versatility and speed on the court. It also feels comfortable as he walks, which is crucial when he’s running or playing in a tight space. pg 6

React foam midsole

The React foam midsole is one of the strongest components of the PG 6. Its multifunction properties affect cushioning, rebound, impulse, and insistent lateral support, and it brings great flexibility to the foot. Its responsiveness is optimized in the front and heel of the shoe. The rubber outsole accompanies the foam, while an additional translucent layer is added to prevent twisting. A PG 6 is a true success from every point of view.

The upper is made of a multilayered mesh that is black on the base and white on the tongue. The Swoosh is in reverse form on the lateral side, while George’s signature is etched into the tongue pulltab. The midsole is translucent, while the outsole is white with black speckles. The midsole is constructed from a blend of EVA and React foam, creating a lightweight, yet supportive fit.

Nike makes their own chemistry, and their foams are the result of years of experimentation. They started with Lunarlon, a blend of EVA and bouncy nitrile rubber. This cushioning material quickly gained a loyal following because of its springy responsiveness. Nike has refined that formula to create React foam, which maximizes both cushioning and energy return. The company also produces ZoomX, a material made from blown Pebax. This foam provides 85 percent energy return.

Rubber outsole

The PG line is known for its cushion units, and the new PG 6 adds an interesting design element to the mix. The new model features a rubber translucent overlay molded into React foam on the sole. The outrigger portion of the bottoms are embossed with Paul’s signature and his logo, while tongue pull-tabs bear the same signature. The upper is constructed of lightweight mesh, with additional lockdown toward the base of the lacing. The toe-box is refined, opting for a clean-cut appearance.

The PG 6’s rubber outsole provides enhanced grip and piston-like court feedback. This helps the player to play with confidence, no matter what direction they shoot. The rubber outsole also complements the React Foam midsole. Overall, the PG 6 is a comfortable and supportive pair of sneakers that Paul George is proud of. The outsole makes it possible for Paul George to perform at his best on the court.

While the PG series used Air cushioning in its first five releases, the PG6 marks the first year for the introduction of React Foam. The material is a key part of Nike’s performance lineup. While the company has not provided specific performance specifications for the PG6, past releases have been focused on stability, speed, and direction change. The PG6 also features a similar lacing system as the PG5 to give athletes a snug and comfortable fit.

The Nike PG 6 was originally scheduled for a January 2013 release date, but was delayed indefinitely. Despite the long delays, it looks as though the shoe is about to release in a few months. Official images of the shoe suggest an imminent release. The PG 6 is set to release in several colorways, including the infamous ‘Season Blue’ colorway. It will retail for $110 for men.

Backward Swoosh

If you’ve ever looked at an Air Jordan sneaker, you have probably seen the iconic “Swoosh” logo. It always points toward the heel of the sneaker, but Nike made the first backward swoosh in the AJ 1 by Travis Scott. Despite its backward positioning, the AJ 1 is still recognizable. Let’s look at the different variations. What makes the backward swoosh so unique?

PG 6, as its name suggests, is a low-top basketball shoe. It is adorned with the famous backward Swoosh on the lateral side and a translucent rubber overlay. The shoe has a React foam sole and a grippy rubber outsole. It will be available in select regions on February 9th. However, if you’re a die-hard George fan, you may want to hold off on the release date until February 9th.
