Profil de semelle incurvé équilibré sous les métas
The geometry of the midsole with a curved profile under the metatarsals is designed to reduce fatigue and promote a smooth and predictable foot roll throughout the stride. The midsole geometry with a curved profile under the metatarsals starts further from the instep, with a transition zone placed in front of the metatarsal heads. This provides a more stable base for metatarsal support.

Vibram Megagrip
