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.
-
STB Control
The Stability Control Guard process is a stabilization system that prevents foot twisting to secure each stride.
-
Gore-Tex Invisible FIt
The Gore-Tex lining is directly integrated into the upper to make the shoe as lightweight and flexible as a normal model. This membrane provides lasting waterproofing and increased breathability. Water stays outside, and perspiration is wicked away.
-
Frixion Red
Optimal combination of grip, wear resistance, and shock absorption. Used on versatile soles.
-
EVA compression
The classic EVA midsoles, compression-molded, offer durability and responsiveness on soft terrain where the need for shock absorption is reduced.

Ortholite MR E
Ortholite Mountain Running Ergonomic insole offers several advantages:
Major breathability for enhanced comfort thanks to plantar aeration, promoting sweat evaporation while keeping the foot dry, prolonged durability over time thanks to a technology that prevents excessive wear, antibacterial treatment and washable products for better overall foot hygiene. Thickness of 4 mm
