“CJ Rad GT” is a basketball kick with a design that is inspired from the modern sport GT cars.

Functional aerodynamic design…

The main idea was to create a sleek & “aerodynamic” design, inspired from various modern GT cars, like Ferrari, Porsche, Aston Martin and other great classic GT models.

As it happens with most classic GT design, the lines are smooth and they are following basic “aerodynamic” rules, to give a feeling of an object that is “moving” even when it is static.
