Profile of the Adidas D Rose 9

Despite all the setbacks, Derrick Rose continues to put in work and is determined to come back stronger. The Three Stripes is helping him get back on track in the 2018 Offseason with the launch of his latest signature sneaker, the Adidas D Rose 9.

Built for summer runs, the D Rose 9 combines Primeknit and Adiwear to create the most comfortable basketball shoe Adidas has to offer. These Derrick Rose shoes feature a sock-like construction and responsive cushioning to help you attack the paint and accelerate past the defense even in the scorching summer heat.

Performance

Cushion. The Adidas D Rose 9 features full-length Bounce for cushioned comfort. The Bounce cushioning enhances comfort, flexibility, and responsiveness.

Fit
