JOYRIDE, the new NIKE damping system
It is a particular sole whose inner cavity contains flexible capsules with TPE micro-spheres -plastic and rubber copolymer- with a dynamic upper insole that permanently adapts to the shapes of the moving foot. In this way, the microspheres have a multidirectional displacement within the capsules, which accompanies the forms of the sole of the foot absorbing weight and impact for effective damping. For NIKE technicians "it's the feeling of walking or running on bubbles."
