From the Vault
Book keeps working, chopping wood to fuel his fire. Every summer he heaps a few more coals on the fire, feeding the flames in the darkness so when the lights come on, he’s on go. This special Book 2 speaks to the inferno that’s brewing, both with his game and his next future classic.
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.
Cushy 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 modernized herringbone traction pattern was inspired by Book’s love for the Air Force 1, taking its cues from heritage hoops pivot circles that delivers traction and durability.

What Reviewers Say
These shoes require a break-in period before reaching full comfort, with the stiff upper material softening after several wears. Size up half a size—fit runs small and narrow, especially in the toe box. Once broken in, they deliver solid lockdown and work well both on the court and casually with jeans. The material quality and style earn consistent praise, though the break-in can be challenging initially.

Features That Perform
Speed Control
We moved the Air Zoom unit from the heel to the forefoot for an extra turbo boost to blow by your defender.
Quick on the Ball
An updated midfoot webbing system works with a molded 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 helps you stay steady and balanced for hesitations and stepback jumpers.
Behind the Design
"A big thing for me was feeling the court and being a bit lower to the ground."
