The Nike Flair 2 HC has been inspired by the explosive spirit of Serena Williams. It uses a very breathable mesh upper and a bootie construction which makes for a sock-like feel and a lot of comfort.

They especially complement her aggressive style. That’s because of top-of-the-line explosiveness, lightweight cushioning, and exceptional comfort that helps in quick movement and in changing direction. In addition, they use XDR Rubber in a herringbone pattern which gives the shoe exceptional traction on any surface.

Another factor that works in their favor is the lightweight feature. Heavy shoes make it difficult for an athlete to move around even though they may provide more stability. Even though the shoe compromises a bit on stability, it more than makes up for it with its speed and flexibility.
