The lug height on the Vibram Mega-Grip outsole is 4mm, providing excellent traction on various trail surfaces.

What is the heel-to-toe drop?

The heel-to-toe drop is 6mm, with a stack height of 36mm in the heel and 30mm in the forefoot.

Does this shoe contain recycled materials?

What are the weight specifications for this shoe?

For men, the weight is approximately 10.9oz (309g). For women, it is approximately 9.9oz (280g).

Troubleshooting

Traction feels insufficient on certain surfaces.

Ensure the Vibram Mega-Grip outsole is clean of excessive mud or debris. For very slick surfaces, reduced speed may be necessary, as no trail shoe can guarantee grip on all conditions.

Discomfort after long runs.

Verify the lacing is appropriate for your foot shape and the distance. Consider if the shoe's inherent cushioning and support match your biomechanics. Ensure you are using appropriate running socks.

Debris entering the shoe.

Utilize the D-ring to attach compatible gaiters. Ensure laces are tied securely to minimize gaps.

Upper material showing wear.

The technical mesh is durable, but avoid sharp objects or excessive abrasion. Clean regularly to maintain material integrity.

  • Gaiter compatibility is a practical addition for trail runners.
  • Use of recycled and vegan materials.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup: These are ready to wear out of the box. Ensure the fit is comfortable before your first run; adjust laces as needed for a secure, personalized fit.

Compatibility:

  • Gaiters: The D-ring is designed for compatibility with most standard trail gaiters.
  • Socks: Recommended for use with moisture-wicking trail running socks.
  • Terrain: Optimized for trail running; suitable for dirt, mud, rock, and moderate technical terrain.

Care:

  • Cleaning: After use, brush off loose dirt and mud. For deeper cleaning, use a soft brush and cold water. Avoid machine washing or harsh detergents, as this can damage the materials and construction.
  • Drying: Allow shoes to air dry naturally away from direct heat sources. Stuffing with newspaper can help absorb moisture and maintain shape during drying.
  • Storage: Store in a cool, dry place when not in use.
