Nike Zoom Air
Nike Zoom Air is yet another Nike basketball export to its entire (it seems) line of sporting shoes.
Of course the Nike Air family tree has the revered Air Jordans still at its roots.
When you see "Zoom Air" describing the "cushioning technology" in your basketball shoes or baseball, football, or soccer cleats, Nike is telling you that they have constructed the
insoles
and
outsoles
of the shoe using an ultra thin layer of air. This should bring the player closer to the ground allowing for superior foot control and agility. The zoom technology's ultra-thin layer of air purprtedly allows the player to truly feel the playing surface, keeping him more in touch with the game.
