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.
-
STB Control
The Stability Control Guard process is a stabilization system that prevents foot twisting to secure each stride.

The Vibram Megagrip outsole ensures perfect traction on all surfaces, both dry and wet terrains, and offers exemplary durability.

Trail Bite Heel
Pronounced heel for better braking and a reassuring grip on the descent.
