Technologies
-
Meta-Rocker
The Meta-Rocker midsole geometry, specifically designed with a low heel-to-toe drop and a sculpted outsole radius at the heel and toes, creates a unique pivot point effect that promotes a guided gait cycle.
-
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.
-
J-Frame
This technology enhances the bucket seat. It offers support and protection while guiding your foot without rigid materials that offer little tolerance. It is designed to combat pronation and guide the foot smoothly without using rigid materials.
-
H-Frame
The H-Frame lacing system ensures better midfoot support.
