Review consensus

Reviewers call the Rocket Air an impressive basketball debut for Volanti. Its bouncy, low-profile cushioning stands out, and its grippy, durable outsole works both indoors and outdoors. A wide base, an outrigger and a carbon plate give it strong stability, and the main complaint is that it is hard to find in stores.

About the shoe

The 911 Rocket, sold in the US as the Rocket Air, is the first basketball shoe from Volanti, a Xiamen-based brand known for track and racing footwear. Because it is the brand’s debut on court, it has no predecessor. Instead it borrows from racing shoes, with a full-length V-Bounce supercritical foam midsole, an oversized nitrogen air unit in the forefoot and a V1300 10-layer carbon fiber plate. The low-top weighs about 300 grams in EU 41, DaRon Holmes II has worn it in the NBA, and it retails for $159 through Volanti’s US store.
