The Kobra K-Pro BX 14 by Diadora is an elite, aggressive shoe that incorporates high-tech elements to deliver softness, flexibility, stability, and lightness. Ultra-soft, water-resistant, 100% full-grain kangaroo leather is the primary material of the upper, snake-skin textured for control on the ball and grip on strikes. Anti-stretch and anti-slip micro-fiber lining in the heel, lightly padded; woven synthetic forefoot lining. Ergos sliplasted construction utilizing DuPont’s exclusive Engage® materials.
Elastic strap trains the textured k-leather tongue to fold over the laces, and comfortable cushioning lines the underside of the tongue. Weight reducing mesh inserts in the back half of the upper reduce weight while increasing flexibility. Anti-stretch lining helps preserve the shape of the shoe.
Cotton covered anatomically formed EVA insole comfortably prevents slip while absorbing shock. Ergos is a two-layer, anatomic footbed under the insole that adds an additional cushioning layer to the traditional lasting board. Extra padding provided by the Engage® layer, assuring maximum comfort and shock absorption, while Pebax® material on the underside is lightweight and proportionally rigid/flexible.
The full carbon outsole includes Axeler technology with Nanoflex® alloy, an innovative material that combines titanium and molybdenum in a thread-like frame molded into the triple-density polyurethane sole, increasing forefoot flexibility and reactivity while ensuring stability along the sole and heel area-- improves spring-back elasticity for superb propulsion. Laminar-shaped BX14 TPU studs arranged in the Flex Rotax system specifically arranges the studs to facilitate forefoot rotation and release.
Quality traditional materials and integrated high technology combine to make this an all-around effective boot.
