Other types of Nike Free: What is this Flyknit technology?
Nike Flyknit technology was inspired by expert runners looking for tight fitting sneakers and a closer feeling to running barefoot. To achieve this, Nike created a top part woven with static proprieties giving the shoe an incredible structure and durability. In fat, these new models are created to allow the foot to move in the most natural way possible.
Later on, the brand developed other elements of this top part to adjust its support, air permeability and flexibility. The result of it all is a light, tight fitting top section with barely any seams. In fact, all the new models feature hexagonal grooves in the exterior sole which create six different points of flection, allowing the foot a freedom of movement, no other shoe does.

Chinese white label sneakers (similar to Nike)
There is one particular brand I’ve been meaning to try for a while now. I’m talking about Onemix, a Chinese brand that copies Nike’s models and has great reviews. Take a look at the picture. Don’t they look just like Nike? In fact there are a few similarities.
Also take a look at Feozyz:
Onemix offers adaptable and air permeable running sneakers for 45€, two or three times less money than Nike. Do you want to take a look at other white label sneakers?
