Review Consensus
Reviewers praise the Shock Wave 5 Pro's traction and court feel, though one found the Nitroedge cushioning and carbon fiber setup underwhelming for a premium-priced shoe. The dual carbon plates and lateral TPU give it solid stability despite its slimmer shape.
Release Date: December 2023
The Anta Shock Wave 5 Pro is the premium version of the Shock Wave 5, the model Kyrie Irving promoted after joining Anta in 2023, and it has also been worn by Derrick Jones Jr. Compared with the standard Shock Wave 5, the Pro uses a woven upper, a triple carbon plate setup and a softer rubber outsole intended for indoor courts, while keeping Anta’s nitrogen-infused Nitroedge cushioning. It also has a slimmer, narrower shape than the standard model. Anta’s US store listed it at $165.
