Shox: 2000 years, Nike has spent 16 years developing a new birth of cushioning shox technology
Shox series is its heel shock absorption suspension system the Department's named after (Shox intended for the shock absorber). This system and over the past 20 years Nike has been using the air-cushion system, can be called a technical leap forward. With the same spring-like material made of flexible foam column 4, the new sports shoes with air cushion is not only the buffering effect, but also able to provide thrust.
In 1997, researchers in the two-tier flexible plastic plate between the folder into the vertical column of flexibility. Used in this design is a key material for the automotive manufacturing industry and the newly developed foam ethyl carbamate. If such a bubble into a hard surface will bounce high. In fact, this is sports shoes Shox series behind the design concept: elastic column encountered by an external shock and compression, and then when they resume their original height, the outbreak will be strongly wearer to the front.
This design philosophy in the design of running shoes that were on its head. Shox running shoes Simon had four about 2.5 cm tall elastic column, forming a square matrix, they provide a strong wearer stretch. When the basketball players in the market for high-intensity exercise, Shox sneakers elastic column was not stable enough. So the researchers shortened the length of the pillar, in its medial plus engraved scratches so that they can pressure to the internal bending, but also reinforced the top and bottom of the liner, and rear shoes, an increase of a road connecting the two lining layer of the belt. So the first dual-use technology shox basketball shoes at last at the 2000 Sydney Olympics last year to show in the world.
