“In the Freak 1 we focused on how frequently Giannis gets vertical for rebounds, blocks and dunks” said Klein. This works with the split outsole design, providing a mix of explosion up front and impact protection at the end. Midsoles switch up the cushioning system: where the Zoom Freak 1 used double-stacked Zoom Air in the heel and soft foam in the forefoot, the Zoom Freak 2 moves its Zoom Air to the forefoot and relegates the foam to the heel. High-wear areas are bolstered for extra support as well. This enables each piece to flex independently during these lightning-quick movements. Therefore, the Zoom Freak 2’s outsole is decoupled, with the heel and forefoot connected by a supportive midfoot shank. This means that his shoes need to be supportive enough to contain his explosive athleticism, but quick enough to enable his elusive set of moves like the Eurostep. You can shop Giannis’ new Nike Zoom Freak 2 shoe and matching black & white clothing below.Although Giannis stands at a towering 6’11 with a 7’3 wingspan he moves and plays like a guard, hence his “Greek Freak” nickname. Matching up with the kicks is a clothing mix that includes Nike Giannis Freak T-Shirts, shorts, hoodie, mesh top and track jacket. Following the recent Zoom Freak 2 “Naija” release, this second colorway combines Black, White and Off Noir with Solar Flare accents.
