Description

👣 Foot Shape Fit

Design: The JB3 offers a slightly wide fit, accommodating broader foot shapes. Players with narrow feet might consider sizing down by half for a snugger fit.
Arch Support: Features a neutral arch profile with moderate midfoot lockdown, making it suitable for players with medium to high arches. Those with flat feet may benefit from additional insoles for enhanced support.

🛠️ Midsole Technology, Durability, and Cushioning

Cushioning: Equipped with Li-Ning’s full-length BOOM foam, the JB3 delivers a balanced ride—responsive in the forefoot for quick movements and adequately cushioned in the heel for impact absorption.
Durability: The midsole maintains its responsiveness over time, showing minimal compression set, ensuring consistent performance during extended play.

Feel: Offers a firm yet responsive underfoot experience, prioritizing court feel without sacrificing comfort, making it ideal for agile players who value quick transitions.

🌐 Outsole Technology and Wear Resistance

Traction: The JB3’s outsole features a multidirectional pattern that provides reliable grip on indoor courts. While it performs adequately outdoors, the rubber compound may exhibit accelerated wear on rough surfaces.{index=25}:contentReference[oaicite:26]{index=26}
Durability: Constructed with a dense rubber compound, the outsole resists abrasion moderately, suitable for occasional outdoor use but not recommended for frequent play on concrete courts.

Support: Incorporates a rigid torsional TPU plate that enhances stability and torsional rigidity, aiding in preventing unwanted foot rotations during dynamic movements.

🚀 Anti-Rollover Performance

Base Widening: Features an extended forefoot outrigger and reinforced sidewalls that minimize lateral instability during cuts and directional changes.
Low Profile: The midsole’s moderate thickness lowers the center of gravity, reducing the risk of ankle rolls and providing a stable platform for explosive movements.

👟 Upper Wrap

Materials: Utilizes a combination of premium materials, including leather and TPU overlays, offering both durability and a premium feel.
Fit: The dynamic lacing system, complemented by a padded heel collar, ensures a secure lockdown. However, players with high insteps might find the toe box slightly restrictive.

Ventilation: While the upper provides adequate breathability for standard sessions, it may feel warm during prolonged play due to its material composition.

🏀 Suitable For

Position: Versatile across positions, the JB3 is particularly optimized for forwards and guards who engage in both perimeter and post play.
Playstyle: Ideal for players who rely on footwork, balance, and moderate explosiveness. Less suited for athletes seeking ultra-lightweight designs for maximum speed.

Weight Range: Best suited for athletes weighing between 70–95kg. Heavier players may desire additional cushioning for high-impact landings.
