Product Description

The engineered mesh upper of these shoes is made from a multi-directional mesh material that improves ventilation and stability. This allows for better airflow, keeping your feet cool and comfortable. The AMPLIFOAM midsole is designed to maintain durability at softer densities, providing flexibility, comfort, and platform adaptability, making it ideal for natural running. With GEL technology, these shoes offer excellent shock absorption for a smooth and comfortable ride. They are suitable for road surfaces, with a 10mm heel drop and weighing 269g/9.5 oz. These shoes provide neutral support, meaning they are suitable for those with normal-size arches.

Underpronation is when the outside of the heel hits the ground at an increased angle with minimal pronation. This can cause shock to the lower leg and result in injuries such as plantar fasciitis, shin splints, and ankle strain. Those with high arches are more likely to experience underpronation.

Neutral foot type is when the foot lands on the outside of the heel and then rolls inward, absorbing impact on the body. This type of foot contact allows for even distribution from the front of the foot during push-off. While injuries are less likely due to effective shock absorption, they are not impossible. This foot type is typically characterized by normal-size arches.

Overpronation occurs when the foot lands on the outside of the heel and then rolls inward, transferring excess weight. During push-off, pressure is mainly experienced on the big toe and second toe. Overpronation can lead to injuries such as shin splints, plantar fasciitis, bunions, and heel spurs. This foot type is common in people with low arches or flat feet.
