A sole with good grip and energy transfer
Boxers stay on their toes as they box. This is why we designed a flexible shoe with a sole that is thin and flexible (providing your steps and footwork with a more responsive feel) and made of rubber (for better grip and resistance to wear).
We also added cushioning, with an EVA pad under the heel.
The result is a sole with good grip that is flexible and which helps transfer energy from each step, pivot and push, from your toes to your gloves!
Introducing a lightweight and flexible shoe
To help you stay on your toes and keep moving all throughout each round, we designed our 500 boxing shoe to fit like a glove!
With a mid-high mesh upper, your shoe is well ventilated, flexible and lightweight, and barely weighs 7.1 oz!
We've also added durability by stitching 3D mesh to the outside of the shoe.
The result is a shoe that easily responds to all of your footwork!
A shoe with a great design We'll explain
In addition to flexibility and weight, we've also thought about support,
adding a rubber stiffener at the back of the heel to provide your ankle with good support. Glued TPU on the contour of the foot as well as the edge of the tongue makes the shoe more durable without adding stitches!
Lastly, it has thin and durable laces, a wide opening, and a loop on the heel, all of which make it easy for you to put your 500 boxing shoes on!
We are pleased to present...
Our first boxing shoe! for starters, we wanted to offer boxers plenty of flexibility and grip.
So our 6-person design team did a number of studies, designs and prototypes, and especially lots of field tests to get your feedback and be able to offer you greater flexibility, grip, and support.
We're proud to present a shoe that can truly follow all of your movements!
Why wear a shoe that helps you improve your footwork?
Julien, our Outshock product manager, talks about footwork while boxing.
"Footwork is the key in boxing; it all starts there. The goal is to stay on your toes and keep your legs bent, to allow you to transfer as much energy forward as possible. A punch starts in the foot and travels through the leg, the waist and the torso to reach the arm. This is why we wanted a lightweight shoe that allows boxers to move around, and with more grip so they can pivot and transfer energy effectively."
