Connect

Trail2026-03-25 · JP · Release dateChecked 2026-11-09

Connect is a minimalist trail shoe without a midsole, designed for mild to moderate trails and walking. Its zero-drop platform pairs with Vibram XS Trek EVO rubber. Removing the OrthoLite insole exposes the finished strobel board and reduces the platform from 10.5 to 5.5 mm. Breathable engineered mesh secures the foot, while the roomy toe box and flexible construction support all-day movement.
