Anta KAI Speed 2 Black Warrior Basketball Shoe Black
Alongside the KAI 2, Anta makes a lighter, lower-cut version for players who rely on pace: the KAI Speed 2. This Black Warrior is all black, with a purple-blue sheen over the midsole and outsole that shifts from angle to angle.
What does nitrogen do in the midsole?
Anta foams the material with nitrogen under high pressure. That leaves tiny bubbles in the foam, which makes it lighter and more responsive at the same time: it compresses on landing and then pushes back. In this second version the foam is tuned a little firmer in the forefoot than in the heel, so you get more court feel on push-off and more cushioning on landing.
The plate in the middle: where do you feel it?
Under your instep sits a carbon plate. It keeps the shoe stiff lengthwise, so the sole doesn't twist with you when you change direction at full speed. You feel the difference in your midfoot: less torsion means the force of your push-off goes into the floor and not into bending your shoe.
Why a reinforced cradle around the heel?
A hard plastic frame runs around the midsole and up into the upper. It catches your foot when you lean into a crossover, so you don't slide over the edge of the sole.
For the player who relies on speed
This is a shoe for guards and wings who make lots of short sprints and changes of direction. If you mainly want cushioning under the heel because you play a lot in the paint, a heavier model will suit you better.
At Burned, we mainly see the Black Warrior chosen by guards and wings who play at a high pace and make lots of short sprints. Anta calls the last normal to wide, so a wide foot won’t easily feel pinched here.
Do you often stand on the ball of your foot and want to get away lightning fast?
Do you play guard or wing at a high pace?
Are you a fan of Kyrie Irving’s signature line at Anta?
Want a black shoe that looks just as good with pants?
Do you mostly play in the paint and often land hard on your heel? A model with more cushioning volume in the rear will suit you better.
Do you play on an outdoor concrete court? The sole is made for a clean gym floor and wears faster outside.
Order your usual EU size; Anta describes the last of this model as normal to wide.
We still have this pair in stock in size 41.
