Description

Nimble. Quick. Lightweight. If you want to feel connected to the trail, look no further. As a classic shoe in our trail running repertoire, we made thoughtful tweaks to help enhance your comfort and connection to the trail. New tongue construction and Ghillie lacing is designed for a more comfortable fit at step-in, while new tooling offers increased flexibility. It's still got a MaxTrac™ outsole for grip, but we refined the outsole lug shape and placement for even more traction. A low-stack midsole keeps it lightweight yet cushioned enough to feel protected. It's got zero drop for natural foot position and plenty of room to help your toes move more freely, with a secure midfoot. Whether you're scaling a mountain or crushing a few miles on a dirt loop, your shoe shouldn't weigh you down. Stay light. Stay comfortable. Stay Out There™.
