The Engineered Mesh Upper of this product improves breathability and wraps the foot with a soft feel. The Rearfoot PureGEL Technology helps provide lightweight cushioning and softer landings. The FLYTEFOAM cushioning provides lightweight impact absorption.

This shoe is designed for the Road surface, with an 8 mm Heel Drop and a Weight of 270g/ 9.5 oz. It offers Neutral and Stability Support, with Regular Cushioning.

UNDERPRONATION is characterized by the outside of the heel hitting the ground at an increased angle with minimal pronation, causing shock to the lower leg. This results in pressure on the outer toes during push-off, potentially leading to issues like plantar fasciitis, shin splints, and ankle strain. Individuals with this foot type typically have high arches.

A NEUTRAL FOOT TYPE lands on the outside of the heel and then rolls inward, effectively absorbing impact on the body. Push-off is experienced with even distribution from the front of the foot. While injury is less likely due to the effective shock absorption, it is still possible. Individuals with this foot type typically have normal-size arches.

OVERPRONATION is characterized by the foot landing on the outside of the heel and then rolling inward, transferring excess weight. This results in pressure mainly on the big toe and second toe during push-off, potentially leading to issues like shin splints, plantar fasciitis, bunions, and heel spurs. Individuals with this foot type typically have low arches or flat feet.

For PROTECTION, the key benefit is Stability, offering a stable ride with controlled impact, smooth transitions, and guidance to help prevent injury. Similar shoes in this category include the GT-1000 and TRABUCO CUSHION.

For COMFORT, the key benefit is Cushioning, prioritizing soft landings and impact absorption to maintain comfort on longer runs. Similar shoes in this category include the GEL-PULSE and TRABUCO MAX BOUNCE.
