Zero Drop
Flat cushioning. The Zero Drop platform offers total cushioning and places the heel and forefoot at the same distance from the ground. This natural balance helps keep the feet, back, and body posture aligned to minimize shocks. Additionally, the Achilles tendon and lower calf muscles, weakened by wearing running shoes with elevated heels, are strengthened.
-
Foot-Shaped Toe Box
The FootShape toe box allows the toes to spread naturally and comfortably while keeping the big toe straight. This improves stability and increases the propulsion strength of the toes, optimizing running performance.
Advantages:
- The big toe remains straight, providing greater stability and increased propulsion strength.
- The toes can spread naturally and comfortably.
- The foot naturally compensates for any excessive pronation.
