Book 1s are better

They’re not a terrible shoe. Fairly comfortable. The book 1s are SO MUCH better though.
Book 2 'The Phoenix'
Basketball Shoes
CHF 170
Book's quiet confidence comes both from within and the work he puts in. He would prefer to let his game and the Book 2 talk for him. Armed with game-ready tech, it's more responsive than Book's original masterpiece. Forefoot Air Zoom gives his first step a turbo boost. Player-approved Cushlon offers coast-to-coast cushion. And a super-charged sockliner gives Book soft, responsive step-in bounce. Ball in.

From the Ashes
From the ashes of snatched ankles and clinical scoring binges, the Book 2 rises. And just like the phoenix that emerges from the flames, it's straight heat. Look for the unassailable creature along the Air Force 1-inspired traction pattern. And make your opponent dissolve with the fiery orange blaze base that's been touched by the desert sun.
Zoom Zoom
We moved the Air Zoom unit from the heel to the forefoot for low-profile responsiveness.
Snug Fit
A midfoot webbing system offers snug, soft security for quick cuts and sudden Book-like jabs and pivots.
Lightweight Upper
The upper is made of a light, durable synthetic material that disappears on your foot. It helps keep you and Book feeling fresh through the fourth quarter and beyond.
Comfy foam
The midsole is made of our newest Cushlon foam, which gives you a plush underfoot sensation, so your feet feel fresh throughout the 4th quarter.
AF1-Inspired Traction
The modernised herringbone traction pattern was inspired by Book's love for the Air Force 1, taking its cues from heritage hoops pivot circles that deliver traction and durability.
More Benefits
- Book’s foot sits on top of a responsive sockliner, offering the star a fast step-in feel.
- A midfoot webbing system offers snug, soft security for quick cuts and sudden Book-like jabs and pivots.

A bit narrow in the toe, and the tongue hurts my ankle a bit. Other than that shoe looks nice, probably needs to be broken in pretty well to be really comfortable.
Awesome shoe

Great looking shoe. Like the site says go up 1/2 a size. Looks good in shorts and jeans.

Features That Perform
Speed Control
We moved the Air Zoom unit from the heel to the forefoot to provide an extra turbo boost so you can blast past your defender.
Quick on the Ball
An updated midfoot webbing system works with a moulded upper to provide extra stability for jabs and pivots.
Play with Tempo
A lighter upper compared to the Book 1 and a lower-to-the-court feel help you stay steady and balanced for hesitations and step back jumpers.
"A big thing for me was feeling the court and being a bit lower to the ground".
