Traverse

Trail2024-01-24 · JP · ReleaseChecked 2026-10-07

Traverse combines technical trail running and long-distance thru-hiking in a protective hybrid. A ZipFoam midsole, forefoot rock plate and Vibram Megagrip outsole address rocky terrain. Its closed-cell FKT insole resists water absorption and helps drainage in wet conditions. Tightly woven, breathable mesh pairs with a roomy toe box and a secure midfoot and heel for a stable fit.
