The Nike Zoom Freak 2, the second installment in Giannis Antetokounmpo's signature series, made its debut in 2020. Built for the power and speed of the 'Greek Freak's' gameplay, it's a shoe designed to meet the demands of one of the NBA's most unique talents.
The Zoom Freak 2 incorporates multiple performance features, including a decoupled outsole to assist Giannis's notorious Euro-step, an enlarged Zoom Air unit under the forefoot for explosive energy return, and a molded TPU 'rose' to enhance stability.
Aesthetically, the Zoom Freak 2 is as distinctive as its predecessor. The reversed Swoosh continues, adding a unique touch to the design. Family remains a central theme in this edition, with the names of Giannis's parents and brothers etched into the shoe's outsole.
Notable colorways include the 'Naija,' a vibrant tribute to Nigeria, Antetokounmpo's parents' homeland, the 'Particle Grey,' an understated design with bold accents, and the 'White Cement,' a nod to sneaker culture history, recalling the famous Air Jordan colorway.
The Nike Zoom Freak 2 was introduced with a retail price of $130, slightly higher than its predecessor. Depending on the edition, special releases, and collaborations, prices can vary.
