On rare occasions, sometimes when you least expect, the desert night will come to life with awe-inspiring Aurora Borealis as far south as Arizona.

Stop and Go

A top-loaded Zoom Air unit in the heel provides a measure of responsive speed when taking off in the open floor and coming to sudden halts, like a 2-footed Book jump stop and pump fake around the rim.

Plant and Pivot

A top-loaded midfoot strong plastic plate helps keep your foot stable when making sudden movements like sharp plants, Book-like pivots and jabs in the post and opportunistic cuts. A strong plastic sidewall cage adds even more stability.

Cut Hard

The multidirectional, Herringbone-like pattern gives you sticky traction that’s ideal for lateral cuts and quick changes in movement.

Full-Go Foam

Soft, responsive full-length foam can help you keep running and cutting in comfort.

  • Look 10x nicer IRL!!!

    EricC75399839 - Nov 05, 2025

    These run a little narrow compared to the average Nike shoe. The shoe looks 10x better in person that it does on the screen. The color change feature gives "Marty McFly/Back to the Future" vibes. The glow in the dark sole makes it a fun shoe to wear out at night.

  • Not What I Expected - Disappointed

    Paul56589628 - Nov 03, 2025

    I was expecting the scorpions to glow in the dark, which they did not - so, this dropped the rating for me quite a bit.

  • It’s the Black Light for me

    KaziW468200116 - Oct 30, 2025

    The Books are know for comfort and quality and this is no exception. To see these in the dark or under black light just highlights the fact that they went all out on these!!! This is #10 for me and I’m a complete fan.
