Let’s dive into the standout models we currently stock, and why Li-Ning Wade basketball shoes should be your top pick for dominating the court.
Li-Ning Wade All City 12 Basketball Shoes
If you're looking for a shoe that perfectly balances bounce, support, and breathability, the Li-Ning Wade All City 12 is your go-to. These shoes feature a breathable upper that is divided into three parts, ensuring maximum comfort during intense games. The designs, complete with Dwyane Wade’s signature on the tongue, offer a sleek, stylish look that will turn heads on any court.
Key Performance Features:
Bounce & Cushioning: Equipped with a full-length BOOM midsole wrapped by TPU, the All City 12 Aurora offers responsiveness and superior cushioning. This makes them ideal for those quick sprints to the basket and safer landings when going for those high-flying shots.
Breathability & Lockdown: The breathable three-part upper keeps your feet cool during heated games. The midfoot TPU adds horizontal support, while the comfortable heel collar ensures strong ankle support, giving you confidence in every step.
Support & Stability: The double-layer PROBAR LOC stabilizer helps with torsional resistance, which is crucial when making explosive moves in any direction.
Traction & Durability: Whether you’re playing on indoor or outdoor courts, the TUFF RB outsole, designed with the "AC12" pattern, offers excellent grip and avoids slipping or rolling.
This model isn’t just about functionality - it’s designed to keep you comfortable and supported throughout your game.

Available in both White Hot and the brand-new Desert Pink colourways, these shoes don’t just deliver in performance - they’re also a statement in style. The flash-patterned TUFF OS outsole offers high wear resistance, making these shoes perfect for outdoor play.
Key Performance Features:
Superior Bounce and Cushioning: The Son of Flash features BOOM technology in both the forefoot and rearfoot, combined with full-length CLOUD cushioning. This not only makes the shoe incredibly lightweight but also provides high responsiveness, giving you the power to leap and land effortlessly.
