Heat-Cooling Athletic Sneakers

The York Athletics Henry Mid Shoe Features Dri-Freeze Cooling

Designed with boxers as inspiration behind the performance-driven aesthetic, the York Athletics Henry Mid Shoe helps wearers to push harder and train better without having to think about their footwear.

Built as a lightweight cross trainer that is ideal for outdoor and gym use, the shoes are kept somewhat understated with a stark black aesthetic. The ankle height is specially designed to help provide additional stability and comfort without restricting movement. One of the best features of the York Athletics Henry Mid Shoe is the Dri-Freeze cooling technology that is built-in to the sneakers. It will help to provide a cooling sensation when feet heat up to keep wearers less distracted by the way their gear feels and more focused on the task or workout at hand.
