3D GUIDANCE SYSTEM™

New innovative way to provide support in the midsole without using conventional support features. The highly sculptured midsole design with new midsole geometries focuses on the loading sites this runner encounters, allowing shoe deformation while stabilising landing speed and medial frontal forces in response to landing, hence providing effective support. A system that combines the features outlined below to deliver adaptive stability and unprecedented levels of comfort for the entire duration of the run.

1. Wider Basenet

Wider basenet providing a stable platform. (+3/4mm)

2. Midsole Geometry

A. Increased lateral heel bevel designed to help control initial ground contact forces and control speed as the runner moves into midstance.

B. Medial midsole bulges convexly to cradle the excessive medial rearfoot spill.

C. Lateral decoupling groove, for a smooth landing.

D. Lateral midsole at the forefoot is splayed to give a larger surface area to disperse a greater forefoot load.

3. Guidance Line

Newly designed lateral guidance line acts to stabilise landing speed and medial/frontal forces.

4. Heel Setup

Cradled platform for a smooth contact upon landing, complimented by a beveled heel.

Consumer Profile

A versatile stability trainer that suits lighter runners with a high velocity foot strike, or those who impact the midsole with a greater load, who transition with prolonged midstance timing, or lack of plyometric bound looking for a responsive, stable ride.
