Key performance features of the MB.04 silhouette include the 4D printing technology, which allows zoned-out durability and enhances the breathability of the shoe. Stylized TPU support in the forefoot has been incorporated for added stability throughout the silhouette.

Each shoe includes a distinctive heel logo that connects to its colorway and story. Compression-molded EVA foam provides superior responsiveness and cushioning while maintaining a lightweight profile, an added benefit for hoopers. Engineered mesh upper for added comfort and a Melo-fied external heel cap have been included for a signature touch.

Ball is hitting the road to introduce his latest signature sneaker with PUMA on a high-energy North American tour, kicking off in Charlotte, the heart of Melo-mania, and making stops in Atlanta, Miami, and culminating in a grand finale in New York City.

It's more than just the reveal of the MB.04, it's a celebration of Ball's meteoric rise and the undeniable impact he's made on the game. Stay locked into Sports Illustrated's Kicks On SI for all your footwear news from the NBA and the rest of the sports world.
