Nike FlyEase Arrives on the Phantom GT2 Academy

For players that can benefit from the specific purpose of Flyease technology, Nike has reintroduced it on the all newest Phantom GT2 Academy silo.

What is Nike FlyEase? Flyease is an easy-entry footwear system designed by Nike to help athletes put on and secure their shoes — with zero compromise to fit and performance. Since its debut, FlyEase technologies have been employed in more than 20 footwear styles across basketball, running and sportswear. We have seen it used on several different Phantom silos to date.

You can see from above how the wrap-around strap closure is attached to strings, these strings run through the lacing system. As you close the strap, these strings tighten around the forefoot, creating a secure fit. The tighter you pull the strap, the tighter the fit will be. A series of Velcro closures ensure that once you pull the strap into position, it won’t loosen. And from experience wearing them, I can confirm that the fit you create is what you get through play, in other words it doesn’t loosen.

Who are they designed for?

Ultimately, it is players who need an easier entry system that will have the most success with them. If you have the ability to work your way into a pair of boots and tie your own laces, then it is wiser to stick with the standard version of the boot. But, if you need something that is a lot easier to access, with the ability to tighten using one hand, then they are a definite option to consider.
