This 300-gram light Alpine Pro shoe promises trail runners comfort, versatility and protection for middle and long distances. The Alpine Rolling midsole construction of this especially lightweight shoe has a double compression molded EVA midsole that increases running dynamics. It also provides an evenly smooth roll-through from heel to toe. A drop of 8mm guarantees good support on middle- and long-distance runs on demanding, variable terrain. Additional protection when the going gets rocky: An integrated carbon plate between the midsole and outsole keeps your foot protected from stone bruises or rock push-through. The Carbon Shield protects as well as adds responsiveness and durability. The new Rubber Tension concept of a diagonally placed reinforcement across the heel provides an even more precise heel hold. The Vibram Megagrip sole promises the best grip on alpine terrain as well as in wet or dry conditions.
