Nike Vapor 12 Premium Men's Clay Court Tennis Shoes Hq6029-801 Size 41

Product information

When the late-summer daylight drops and the city that doesn't stop starts to stir, lace up in this Vapor 12. With a reworked upper and traction pattern, it's lighter and more responsive than the 11. And we brought back Air Zoom cushioning, so you can always be on the attackeven in the city that never sleeps. More benefits: The full midfoot fit band allows you to pull the laces tighter to enhance the fit and enable fast cuts. The midsole foam in between the plastic and rubber, which wasn't on the Vapor 11, helps keep you light on your feet. Behind the design: The metallic Swoosh logo speaks to the electricity that carries from the court to the city that never sleeps. Solar burst hues hint at the volume that's about to turn up when the sun goes down. Red-dirt ready: Nike Claybreaker technology helps give you enhanced traction and less build-up on clay courts. Added grip in the forefoot and midfoot work with a wide traction pattern to help you slide with control. We used traction maps, pressure maps and analysed clay build-up areas for the design. Then, we tested it on red-clay courts in Europe in multiple clay-weather conditions (cold, warm, wet and dry). Zoom it: A heel Air Zoom unit helps keep you supported and springy throughout your match. Lighter load: The herringbone traction pattern is made from our new rubber compound that's lighter than Vapors of the past. We brought back the firm midfoot plastic piece seen on past Vapors to provide optimal stability and transitions when cutting from side to side. The supportive piece also allowed us to remove the rubber in the midfoot, which helps reduce the overall weight of the shoe. Transfer the power: A firm foot frame wraps around the supportive midfoot plate and spans from heel to toe, giving you more of a secure feel. It helps give you the stability to transfer power during aggressive slides, cuts and pivots. Lightweight upper: We reduced the weight of the engineered mesh while maintaining durability in high-wear zones by the toe.
