The NETBURNER BALLISTIC™ FF 2 shoe is perfect for netball. Lightweight and comfortable, this reliable netball trainer puts a spring in your step in more ways than one. This model evolves the GEL-NETBURNER™ lineage even further with advanced componentry that helps promote a more flexible fit and greater durability.
This shoe is designed with ridges of polyurethane rubber over the toes for added protection while improving flexibility in the forefoot-all without forgoing any of its support features. The supportive internal heel counter helps deliver a locked-in feel to inspire confidence when making abrupt cuts on the court.
Injected with FLYTEFOAM™ Propel technology in the midsole, this shoe delivers a bouncy response with cushioned underfoot comfort. Designed to improve stability, the integration of TWISSTRUSS™ technology also equips athletes with more agility and speed during abrupt twisting or pivoting motions.
Lastly, the NETBURNER BALLISTIC™ FF 2 shoe is formed with deeper flex grooves in the outsole to increase traction and flexibility on the netball court.
Features:
Breathed coat mesh
This upper material has an Engineer-Perforated PU layer on top of the air mesh. It provides great breathability because of the perforated surface but still has enough durability because of the PU layer.
Compared to the previous model, ASICS have changed the construction for a sleek look. The placement of the Engineer-Perforated PU is specially designed for better flexibility while giving you support to stop your foot splaying over the outside of the trainer when changing direction.
Redesigned Heel Counter
The heel counter is more noticeable because it is placed on the outside and made visible. This will not only give that extra stability, it will also show as a more stable shoe
FlyteFoam™ Tooling
FlyteFoam™ technology made with reinforced fibres provides lightweight and continuous cushioning no matter the duration. Court sports like netball require more side-side motion and back-force motion where durability is key. That's why court specific FlyteFoam™ midsoles are not only approximately 35% lighter than the industrial standard midsole material, but also approximately 10% more durable than FlyteFoam™ midsoles designed for running footwear.
Front and rear foot gel
Carefully designed and strategically located, ASICS GEL on forefoot and rearfoot provide high-density shock absorption where it's needed most to maximize comfort. Remember there is a strategic amount of GEL in netball shoes to ensure you are well cushioned on landing but not unstable.
TPU Trusstic
The TPU Trusstic supports stable movements by reinforcing the sole and preventing the shoe from twisting, a key technology for the movements in netball. Ensuring that the shoe remains stable underfoot particularly when changing direction.
