SPECIFICATIONS
  1. GRAPHENE-GRIP Rubber Outsole
    Get uncompromising grip on any terrain. 6mm graphene-infused rubber lugs give formidable grip and traction on soft, wet and hard surfaces. Shaped like the hoof pattern of a mountain goat, the lugs cling to any surface, then release just as quickly while propelling you on to your next stride.

  2. POWERFLOW PRO Midsole
    A bouncy, cushioned ride that retains high levels of responsiveness is provided by the new POWERFLOW PRO foam midsole. This amazing underfoot comfort and propulsion is built in a way that still allows for the ground-feel you need when running over uneven, technical terrain.

  3. Engineered Mesh Upper
    Breathability, comfort and stability are provided by the TRAILTALON's engineered upper. With breathable zones and reinfored areas in places that are prone to extra wear. Over this a heel and midfoot MET-CRADLE helps to give that stable, locked-in feel you need when running over treachorous terrain.

  4. BOOMERANG Footbed
    Preserve your energy on long runs with the BOOMERANG Footbed. The insoles feature hundreds of foam beads that compress and spring back for 40% energy return during your stride. Perfect for longer runs where maximising every bit of energy counts.

  5. Choice Of Fits
    The TRAILTALON hugs the natural contours of your foot, locking you in at the heel and then widening at the toes. Available in Standard Fit and Wide Fit. Go Wide Fit if you have wide feet or would like more room when running longer distances.

Technology

Built for the trail

Cushioning for long descents, low weight for the climbs and a locked-in fit for technical ground.

Cushioned

4mm drop and a 21mm heel, 17mm forefoot stack (midsole only). Enough cushioning to absorb rocky descents and long downhill sections — while keeping the foot close enough to the ground to stay stable on uneven terrain.

// 4mm drop · 21mm heel, 17mm forefoot

Light

At 228 g, it keeps your legs fresher over long distances. PowerFlow™ Pro EVA foam absorbs impact and returns energy with every stride — from the first climb to the last kilometre.

// 228 g · PowerFlow™ Pro EVA

Secure

NaturalFit™ Precision last — the heel and midfoot lock in so the foot doesn't slide on off-camber ground, while the forefoot leaves room for the toes to splay on landing. Secure footing on technical trails.
