All City 14 Encore Aurora

The Way Of Wade All City 14 Encore basketball shoes are designed to adapt to different playing styles and all five basketball positions. Compared to the Wade All City 14, this new series introduces three major upgrades: a full-length SUPER BOOM midsole, an extended LIGHT FOAM ULTRA structure, and a TUFF RB + GCU outsole. The result is a lighter, more responsive and higher-performing shoe, offering superior grip even during the most intense training sessions.

• SUPER BOOM: Takes BOOM technology to the next level with a lighter design and a refreshed appearance. Thanks to advanced manufacturing processes, midsole weight is reduced by 30–50%, with a density above 0.07 g/cm³. The microcell structure is more uniform, ensuring an optimal balance between softness and stiffness during energy return, delivering superior performance in a variety of sporting situations.
• PROBAR LOC: A thermoplastic stabilizing element integrated into the midsole arch, in the area connecting the forefoot and heel. It provides additional support during push-off, particularly around the foot arch. PROBAR LOC also offers more effective arch support during landings, helping to reduce pressure on this area.
• LIGHT FOAM ULTRA: Combines high-performance elastomers with advanced technologies to create a lighter, more elastic and stable midsole, improving energy return during physical activity.
• GCU (Ground Control Unit): An innovative cast polyurethane compound that takes outsole performance to a new level. Thanks to its unique molecular structure, it offers an excellent balance between slip resistance and wear resistance, overcoming the traditional compromise between these two properties. In addition to its high abrasion resistance, GCU stands out for its exceptional grip on wet surfaces, making it ideal for different environmental conditions and playing situations.
• TUFF RB: An outsole material featuring 2.5 times greater wear resistance than traditional rubber. The use of TUFF RB increases outsole durability, allowing the shoe to maintain its performance for longer, even during intensive use.
• Recommended positions: Point Guard / Shooting Guard / Small Forward

What are the differences between the new Wade All City 14 Encore and the Wade All City 14?

The Wade All City 14 Encore evolves from the original Wade All City 14, introducing a full-length SUPER BOOM midsole instead of the standard model's combination of BOOM and SUPER BOOM, delivering greater responsiveness and more consistent energy return. The LIGHT FOAM ULTRA structure has been extended to improve impact absorption and stability. The outsole has also been upgraded: the TUFF RB outsole of the All City 14 has been replaced with a TUFF RB + GCU combination, designed to enhance grip, slip resistance and traction on different types of indoor basketball courts. Both models retain Euro Plate and PROBAR LOC technologies to ensure support and stability during lateral movements. The Encore version therefore stands out for its lighter construction, more responsive cushioning and upgraded traction, while maintaining the versatility of the All City range.
