The i-Run team says
Gain a real speed boost on trail-running trails with the Hoka One One Zinal shoe. Designed for a maximum performance and minimum weight, it will exceed your expectations over short distances.
Discover light, airy training thanks to the Profly dual-density midsole. Designed to be particularly responsive, it effectively absorbs impacts and propels you forward at full speed. The curved profile makes your stride smooth and eases transitions for more momentum.
Made from recycled materials, the ultralight mesh upper provides ideal ventilation during prolonged exertion. The moulded EVA heel is designed for a reliable fit and long-lasting comfort.
The Vibram Mega-Grip Litebase stamped outsole is designed for grip and agility on technical terrain. Its 4mm cleats provide powerful traction and grip on wet or dry ground.
The gusseted tongue prevents debris from getting in when you're hurtling down rough trails while the reinforcement at the toes protects you from obstacles.

Curved Sole Profile Midfoot
The midsole's curved profile under the metas, designed with a transition zone placed behind the metatarsal heads. Promotes a smoother stride and ensures a faster transition at the meta.
-
Profly
This cushioning provides more flexibility at the heel to absorb shocks and more firmness at the forefoot for propulsion and energy return.

Vibram Litebase Megagrip
Vibram Litebase Megagrip is an innovative technology designed to significantly reduce the weight of the sole by decreasing the thickness of the rubber, while maintaining the same performance.
Vibram Litebase Megagrip allows for a reduction of about 40 to 50% in thickness, from 1.7 mm to 0.5 / 0.9 mm, depending on the type of sole, resulting in a reduction in tread weight of 25 to 30%.
This reduction in thickness does not affect the performance of the sole nor the risk of laceration. The result is a very lightweight sole with patterns identical to those of a traditional Vibram Megagrip sole, and thus with the same characteristics of traction, durability, and wear resistance.
