TRAIL RUNNERS INOV-8 TRAILFLY ULTRA G 300 MAX
PRICE: £170 WEIGHT: 300G
Inov-8 have used graphene in their shoes before, but not like this. Working with scientists from the University of Manchester, the British brand has come up with a way to incorporate the wonder material into their midsole for the first time. Called ‘G-Fly’, the new foam boasts a long lasting energy return unlike anything else on the market. A decoupled midsole helps the forefoot adapt to tricky terrain while keeping the heel stable. These innovations make it wellsuited to ultras, or long days on the trail.
