I like the comfort in the shoe, I did a 10 mile hike/run on the trails and fire roads in the state park near my house and the shoes did the job.

Trail Speed
A carbon fiber Flyplate, layered between ZoomX foam and a knit fabric-wrapped midsole, gives you a propulsive and springy feel. It helps you stay fresh to continue pushing the limits of speed.
Grippy Traction Pattern
Vibram exclusive Ultrafly outsole made with Vibram Megagrip has a sticky rubber that works with a chevron lug pattern. They combine to provide grip when going uphill or downhill, even in wet weather.
Grippy Lugs
This exclusive outsole also features Vibram Litebase and Traction Lug Technologies. The result is a lightweight, durable outsole that gives you great grip wherever your run takes you.
Stable on the Trail
Flat bottom and minimized cross rocker give you optimal stability on trail terrain while heel-to-toe rocker provides smooth transition. Engineered zones of support in midfoot help keep you secure.
Durability Where You Need It
The fabric wrap on the midsole helps to cushion the foam from the elements and abrasion of being on the trails. Hard-wearing abrasion-resistant materials provide durability.
More Benefits
- Vapor Weave mesh on the upper provides breathability.
- Foam midsole adds cushioning.

This shoe is an absolute game changer! After knee surgery in November, staying off my feet for 3 months and being told running would not likely be in my future; I bought these shoes and got back to my local trail runs. Today I am keeping a steady pace and am pushing myself for more miles each time out. Slipped these on for the first time and experienced a new level of comfort on a cloud of Zoom X foam; Took the first step and Carbon Flyplate is begging for another and another. Vibram lite base sole delivers excellent grip, consistent stability and utmost confidence during steady climb to the top or on careful descent down. The durable yet breathable Vaporweave upper keeps feet cool and dry while the extra spacious toebox provides unparalleled traction and comfort on the downhill trip back to reality. After almost 40 miles, I have nothing but good things to say and am excited to keep putting miles on my feet and smiles on my face. Stoked to be back "Out There" thanks to these awesome shoes!
Love em
