TECHNOLOGY:

 

Zero Drop™ Platform: Places your heel and forefoot the same distance from the ground to encourage low-impact running technique, respects the natural alignment of the body and strengthens calf muscles that are weakened by raised heels.

 

NRS:  This exclusive system combines an outsole and midsole adapted to the morphology of the metatarsal with the fully cushioned Zero Drop ™ platform and the FootShape™ toe box to let you run the most naturally possible.

 

A-BOUND: Made from recycled materials, this exclusive layer located directly under the foot reduces shocks from hard ground and returns energy with each stride. It feels like having a bouncing ball under the foot!

 

FootPod™: This exclusive outsole respects the morphology of the human foot and helps it to move naturally for optimised flexion, enhanced support and improved balance.

 

Gaiter Trap™: This velcro on the back of the shoe helps integrate gaiters (sold separately) without having to tie them under the sole.

 

Vibram®: The benchmark for abrasion-resistant rubber soles. Exclusive compositions are created according to the specific requirements of each activity. For hiking and trekking, shoes with Vibram technology have a sole that ensures optimal traction, support and cushioning, even on uneven terrain.

 

COMPOSITION:

 

EVA: The moulded EVA insert provides lightweight cushioning and stability.
