Multidirectional outRAPIDE grip
The RAPIDE unit of the Reebok Flexagon Energy serves as both the outRAPIDE and the midsole. The bottom section is more rigid than the upper part, withstanding abrasion. Flex grooves promote natural foot motion for a smooth heel-to-toe transition. The tread pattern on the underside provides traction for multidirectional movements.
brand new with original box Reebok DMX Series 2K DV9677 | Full-length cushioning
Like brand new with original box Reebok DMX Series 2K DV9677, the Reebok Flexagon Energy employs a full-length foam midsole. This compound is soft to cushion impact but instantly bounces back to its original form, ready for the next step.
Breathable upper
The Reebok Flexagon Energy is equipped with a mesh upper. This fabric is soft and the netted appearance helps keep the interior aerated. The outside of the collar is covered in a tightly woven mesh which helps in providing ankle support.
The Reebok Flexagon Energy's overlays
Synthetic overlays protect the eyestay from premature ripping associated with regular lacing adjustments. An overlay also forms an external heel cup that secures the rearfoot and prevents it from sliding inside the shoe.

The lace-up closure provides a way for GW1242 to adjust the snugness at the midfoot. As for the locked-down feel, the plush tongue and collar help with that.
