Tracy McGrady has 7 pairs of boots.
1. McGrady’s 1st generation basketball shoes are the first signature basketball shoes launched by Adidas for Tracy McGrady. The biggest feature of Mai 1 is the unique shell toe design. The pattern on the forefoot of the shoe adopts a radial design. The main technology is adiPRENE+ shock-absorbing rubber on the forefoot and the outsole Torsion System anti-torsion system. The outsole uses Non marking wear-resistant rubber. . This is the best-selling sneaker in NBA history, laying a solid foundation for Adidas in the NBA.
2. The second generation of Tracy McGrady basketball shoes are more of an improvement on the first generation of Tracy McGrady. Technically there is not much difference. The second generation of McGrady basketball shoes removes the shell toe on the toe of the Mai 1 and replaces it with the lines on the original shell toe. As a result, the appearance appears sleeker and closer to a streamlined shape. Like a ghost, this also reflects that McGrady was as scary as a ghost in front of defensive players.
3. The third generation of McGrady basketball shoes still continues the adiPRENE+ shock-absorbing rubber and outsole Torsion System of the McGrady series of basketball shoes, but the appearance is very different from the previous two generations. This sneaker was designed by a Designed for women, there are different materials and patterns on the inside and outside, and an asymmetric design. McGrady's 3rd generation basketball shoes in the mandarin duck color scheme in the All-Star Game are classics. Interestingly, Adidas still can’t explain the reason for the 11 blue lines on the inside of the shoe.
4. McGrady’s 3.5 generation sneakers are a rather special pair. These were originally the sneakers that McGrady prepared to use to participate in the Olympics, but in the end, McGrady gave up participating in the Dream Six Team and bid farewell to the Olympics. This shoe uses Breeze Technology, making the shoe very breathable and comfortable. It has strong elasticity and shock-absorbing properties, allowing athletes to move more easily and flexibly.
5. Starting from the fourth generation of Tracy McGrady basketball shoes, Adidas has adopted brand-new technology. It uses HUG technology to comprehensively improve the wrapping properties of sneakers. T-MAC 4 is filled with elastic and soft material in the inner boot, and the Lycra elastic tongue part prevents the wearer from feeling stuffed in when wearing shoes. Mai 4 canceled the shoelace design and converted it into a buckle loop. The appearance still continues the simple style of the Tracy McGrady series. McGrady was wearing these boots when he created a classic of 35 seconds and 13 minutes.
6. The fifth generation of Tracy McGrady is undoubtedly an innovation in technology. For the first time, Adidas has implanted wood into the midsole of the shoe to enhance stability. It has unprecedented foot feel and shock absorption experience. Do you still remember the shoe that Tracy McGrady wore when he buckled on Bradley? That’s it! As Adidas’ first sneaker with wood implants, its collection value is unquestionable.
7. McGrady’s 6th generation basketball shoes are inspired by McGrady’s creativity when playing. In this sneaker, Adidas uses highly visible ForMotion technology to ensure maximum contact with the ground, fully ensuring the safety of players when moving on the court. This is definitely a perfect combination with McGrady's style of play. This pair of shoes witnessed McGrady's 22-game winning streak with the Rockets.
It is a pity that since McGrady's strength was not as good as before, Adidas did not continue to launch McGrady's signature sneakers, but these 7 pairs of sneakers that witnessed McGrady's career must be eternal classics .
