Much like the previous model, the 2nd installment will feature a mid-cut upper and the look is elevated with Ball’s signature wings details on the sides. The cushioning system in place is Puma’s ultra-responsive Nitro foam cushioning utilized in the midsole, while the rubber outsole features a feather tread pattern for on-court traction.
“Working with Puma to design the second version of my signature shoe is something I am incredibly proud of,” Ball said. “When creating the MB.02, we took the designs to the next level to reflect my personal style with the flames, RARE and 1 of 1 graphics and bold colors. I’m excited to see fans experience the MB franchise in a new way with the launch of MB.02.”
