Anta's new mid-range basketball shoe, "The Mountain 2.5", has been unveiled! This represents the new force in Anta's mid-range basketball shoe lineup.
Fans who follow the sports brand Anta are well aware that, in addition to the more well-known mid-range series such as KT Splash, Light Cavalry, Shock Wave, and Light Crazy, Anta also has some mid-range basketball shoe products that are quite capable but may not be as famous. Although these products usually receive less exposure and attention, Anta has been persistent in continuously updating its products. Recently, Anta quietly introduced a new mid-range basketball shoe, Anta "The Mountain 2.5".
From the perspective of Anta's overall product positioning, "The Mountain 2.5" is a product that has undergone minor upgrades from "The Mountain 2.0".Compared to its predecessor, "The Mountain 2.5" has made certain changes in its design. The overall shoe design is more rounded, lacking the sharpness of "The Mountain 2.0", which also makes the shoe more visually appealing to some extent.
According to official information from Anta, "The Mountain 2.5" is positioned as a summer outdoor basketball shoe. Therefore, the shoe's upper material has been a key focus for an upgrade, featuring a large area of breathable mesh fabric design to ensure the shoe's breathability during actual play and to prevent the shoe from being too stuffy to wear during hot summer days.
On the front of "The Mountain 2.5" basketball shoe, the iconic mountain-shaped TPU module of the Jian Shan series is retained to ensure the shoe's support performance and to prevent the shoe from rolling over during actual play. It is worth mentioning that the mountain-shaped TPU module on "The Mountain 2.5" is not as exaggerated as the TPU modules on the previous models, the "The Mountain 1.0" and "The Mountain 2.0".
The midsole of "The Mountain 2.5" basketball shoe is equipped with Anta's classic A-FLASHEDGE midsole cushioning technology. This midsole material is developed by Anta by adding 25% TPE material to ordinary EVA material. It has a 16% higher energy rebound rate than ordinary EVA material.
The outsole of this pair of "The Mountain 2.5" practical basketball shoes uses a rubber outsole supplemented by an extremely rough landscape pattern design to ensure the anti-slip performance and traction performance of the shoes in actual combat.
In general, although this pair of "The Mountain 2.5" practical basketball shoes is only a small upgrade on the basis of "The Mountain 2.0" generation, the overall appearance performance is quite good.
