Technologies
-
Impact Brake System
This innovative system is applied to the sole so that it absorbs negative ground impact, boosts traction on ascents, and improves grip on descents. The unique positioning of the studs allows as many of them as possible to be in contact with the ground, ensuring optimal impact absorption.
-
EVA injectée
It provides better cushioning and more elasticity during your stride than a molded EVA sole. It maintains its shape over time.
-
Frixion Blue
Durable, flexible, and with a good grip. Ideal for running on asphalt and dirt.
-
Gore Flex Construction
Some GORE-TEX shoes incorporate an innovative construction combining stretch laminates, textile linings, and elastic seams. This way, the foot remains protected from the elements without being hindered by wrinkles or folds at the instep. This technology also provides lasting elasticity and shape memory, allowing you to keep moving forward.
-
Stabilizer
Side panels designed for better stability.
-
Gore-Tex Extended Comfort - Chaussure
The Gore-Tex Extended Comfort membrane provides waterproof and reliable protection in all circumstances. No matter the adventure, this coating ensures your feet stay dry. It is composed of a single layer to guarantee maximum breathability, increased lightness, and reduced drying time.
-
Sock-Shield
High-performance and comfortable slip-on construction that completely envelops the foot without empty volumes and additional gussets. Prevents the infiltration of pebbles, mud, and snow.
