OLX TECHNOLOGY GREAT TRACTION WITH FIXED STUDS
The studs Icebug has developed and uses have tips made of carbide steel which is 6-7 times harder than normal steel which makes them virtually impossible to wear out. In addition to the different traction technologies Icebug also has a variety of systems for the studs. The Fixed Studs do not adjust to the surface like the Dynamic Studs in the BUGrip system, instead they are always exposed and grip whatever surface that comes in their way. With Fixed Studs it’s possible to make the sole relatively thin which saves weight and improves the ground control. The Fixed Studs sys¬tem is exclusively used in shoes for very demanding terrain, where reliable traction is of utmost importance. The shoes with Fixed Studs have “olx” added to the models’ name.
RB9X TECHNOLOGY RUBBER 9 EXTREME
Rubber 9 Extreme is our latest rubber compound development, and it sets a new standard in providing traction on, specially, wet surfaces. Lab tests (SATRA) show that RB9X outgrips the competition on both dry and wet surfaces, but still matches the durability of an asphalt running shoe. In real action that means up-graded traction reliability in wet and slippery conditions: On rocks, tiles etc. With our patented studded technologies we’ve made it possible to run on ice, now we’re the traction leaders for rubber soles as well!
Spirit6 OLX Amazing ground control. Narrow racing last. Light yet protective.
SPIRIT6 M OLX® Orange/Black US7-13: A9815-9B
SPIRIT6 W OLX® Orange/Poison USL5.5-10.5: A9816-9B
Being on top of the World Orienteering Championships podium doesn’t mean you get to rest, at least not if you want to stay at top. The same goes for our Spirit6 as we constantly look for ways to improve it and keep its position as the benchmark in the off trail market. The Spirit6 has one major update compared to previous season: the upper is a new super strong material reinforced with Kevlar, still with a very low weight but even smoother and more durable! Otherwise it’s the same winning concepts as the previous version. The heel cup is comfortably soft and has a depression in the center back in order to reduce pressure at the Achilles tendon. The closed-cell foam of the heel cup, absorbs very little water (maximum 20% increase when wet). The upper has molded protective areas and all stitches are done with a Stitch-and-turn technique to protect the thread. The low sole profile and drop, together with a narrow last, optimize ground control, but yet it’s flexible to allow the foot to move naturally. The outsole provides outstanding grip, with innovative diagonal ridge pattern, that is enhanced to amazing with 14 integrated OLX carbide tip studs.

Zeal2 OLX HGMS2 * Midsole that is both soft AND stable. Outsole pattern designed so mud doesn’t get stuck. Soft heel cup reduces pressure at Achilles tendon.
ZEAL2 M OLX® Mango/Poison US7-13: D9305-9B
ZEAL2 W OLX® Beryl/Rubine USL5.5-10.5: D9306-9B
This is the footwear benchmark for demanding terrain, providing unrivaled combination of low weight, ground control, support and traction. Upper material is Kevlar reinforced, making it strong and smooth without adding any weight. To further increase the durability the upper is fastened with a Stitch-andturn technique to protect the thread. However, it is the midsole construction and the HGMS2* technology, that is the true Icebug innovation. Zeal provides torsional stability but is still flexible with a soft and smooth running feeling, this is the impossible combo, made possible through the molded midsole cradle on the interior side of the shoe. The midsole not only adds superb fit and stability, it also turns into the reinforcement protecting the foot in serious terrain. The height of the extremely soft and comfortable heel cup is slightly reduced at center back in order to relieve the Achilles tendon from pressure. The medium last is half lined with Quick dry mesh. The torsion and cushioning is in perfect balance, and together with the low sole profile the ground control is just outstanding. As if the deep lug pattern of the outsole wouldn’t provide traction enough the OLX version has 16 fixed carbide tip steel studs that will provide traction everywhere.

Zeal3 RB9X Midsole HGMS2 * that is both soft AND stable. Outsole pattern designed so mud doesn’t get stuck. Soft heel cup reduces pressure at Achilles tendon.
ZEAL3 M RB9X® Black/DkGrey US7-13: F4701-0A
ZEAL3 W RB9X® Orange/Magenta USL5.5-10.5: F4702-0A
When developing Zeal, the guide line has been to focus on providing control, while also pushing hard in the most demanding types of terrain. This speed control is a result of all features working together underfoot so you can focus on the trail ahead! The HGMS2 midsole provides torsional support but still has a toe flex with superb feeling. The midsole not only adds an ideal running feeling, but it’s “U” shape also turns into a side wall reinforcement protecting the foot in serious terrain. The heel cup offers a high comfort level thanks to the soft lining and the the reduced center back height that relieves the Achilles tendon. The outsole has been re-designed and now improved with our own proven Icebug tractor pattern. Together with the RB9X compound this outsole is the true traction benchmark. Upper materials are durable and gain very little weight in wet conditions. The medium last has a fairly roomy toe box that caters to comfy rides even when staying out in the woods for a long time.

Acceleritas5 RB9X Minimalistic and light. Low drop and sole profile. Narrow racing last.
ACCELERITAS5 M RB9X® Cobalt/NeonOrange US7-13: B5317-0B
ACCELERITAS5 W RB9X® Magenta/NeonOrange USL5.5-10.5: B5318-0B
Acceleritas5 is minimalism the Icebug way, a must-have for the thrill-seeking runner venturing into swimrun, obstacle race or beyond the beaten track! The upper materials has been updated to a super soft and airy textile, so light and smooth it feels like being barefoot. The water pickup is minimal, the drainage is excellent and hence the wet weight is almost as low as when it’s dry. The midsole is very flexible and keeps the weight down. The height of the heel cup is slightly reduced in order to reduce pressure at the Achilles tendon. Terrain feel is remarkable thanks to the low profile of the sole. The shoe promotes the natural movement of the foot, it’s like running in a pair of socks, but socks that provide thermal and impact protection, and traction. The outsole is designed with a pattern that is optimized to grip on hard as well as on soft surface, with an aggressive pattern where dirt is steered away to the sides in diagonal channels (it’s the same principal as in tractor tires). Acceleritas4 outsole is crowned with the jewel among sticky rubbers: RB9X®. This innovative rubber compound provides incredible traction on both wet and dry surfaces, without compromising the durability! Upper

INSOLES The basic principle of Icebug Insoles is to start from the foot’s natural motion and cushioning. To ensure sufficient support for your arches, without inhibiting the foot’s natural movement, Icebug Insoles offers dynamic support. It effectively protects the arches from collapsing while allowing the muscles of the foot to operate and maintain their strength. Available in three different variants, Low, Medium and High, to fit various arch heights.
FAT Low: 518206A Medium: 518207A High: 518208A Sizes: US4-13 Thickness: 5mm
The footbeds in the FAT range is for those seeking maximum
cushioning in combination with the unique dynamic support Icebug Insoles provides. Icebug
Insoles FAT fits most shoes with
SLIM Low: 518306A Medium: 518307A High: 518308A Sizes: US4-13 Thickness: 2mm
removable insole.
An extra thin version of our footbed. It fits in low volume shoes for various activities, like run-
ning and soccer, as well as your casual sneakers. The foot-
bed provides the same support as Icebug Insoles FAT but with somewhat less cushioning.
GAITER Light weight, elastic gaiter that keeps mud and debris out of the shoes. The gaiter is not waterproof but dense enough to repel light rain and snow, still with a very high level of breathability. A major injury risk during winter is that the Achilles tendon gets wet, cold and stiff. Sealing the edge of the shoe, and adding warmth to this area, helps preventing this problem. The gaiter can be used for all the Icebug running shoes. There are two sizes. Medium can be used from size USL 5,5-10,5 (US 4-9) and Large for US 9-13.

HEATMAP The different shoes in our line speak a common design language and might, at a first glance, appear to be quite similar. However, under the surface the different embedded functionalities and technologies distinguish them quite much from each other, and the line thus covers the various preferences one might have regardless of being an elite athlete racing for the top or a trail beginner exploring what lurks beyond the safe asphalt haven.
ORIBI W RB9X T
To facilitate comparison between our running shoes, and to get the picture of the line easier, we’ve developed a heatmap where four different features are highlighted. These features decide, to a large extent, for whom and for what the shoe is made for.

Torsion (T) Less torsion in the shoe (easy flex) means that the foot has less support and has to work more on its own. The natural movement builds strength but is also demanding. More torsion (medium flex or stability flex) offer more support which is an advantage for feet that do not have sufficient strength or during long sessions when feet get tired.
Cushioning (C) Cushioning is the capacity of the sole to absorb shock. Less cushioning (responsive) means better contact with the ground, but also demands more from the running technique and the biomechanical capacity of the foot to absorb shock. More cushioning (medium or full) provides more comfort and is a help in the shock absorption.
Drop (D) Drop is how much the heel is elevated relative to the forefoot. Standing barefoot on the floor is zero drop. More drop is for most perceived as more comfortable. Less drop is more like the natural position of the foot, but it also puts more strain on the muscles and tendons of the foot, particularly the Achilles. We recommend getting used to a lower drop gradually, and according to your body’s capacity.
Last (L) What last width that is best to use is of course mostly related to the width of the foot. Apart from that, our narrow lasts are racing oriented, best suited for running fast. The medium and wide last are generally better suited for slower work and longer distances. Regardless of width, our lasts are anatomically shaped.
H 2 O PROPERITES GORE-TEX® Products with this symbol are 100% waterproof and are engineered with GORE-TEX® Extended Comfort Footwear technology that carries the GUARANTEED TO KEEP YOU DRY™ promise. They combine durable waterproofness and optimized breathability, offering enduring waterproof protection and optimized climate comfort. Water stays on the outside while perspiration can easily escape from the inside. BUGdri™ The BUGdri marked products have a tape sealed booty construction, where the membrane surrounds the foot like a sock between the lining and upper material to keep water out and provide a good micro climate inside. Non Absorbing Non absorbing materials gain very little weight when they get wet. Important for footwear used in wet condition activities where weight is a critical factor. Note that being non-absorbing does not mean that they keep the inside of the shoe dry.
Water Resistant Water resistant footwear use materials that are treated or dense enough to repel water. In some cases the upper material has a BUGdri membrane to further increase the water resistance. Water resistant products give you protection from foul weather, splashing and slush. The gain is a high level of breathability and the ability to shape better with the foot. To maintain the water resistance of a treatment a material needs to be taken care of properly.
