STRETCHWEB designed outsole of Supernova ST

The Supernova ST uses the STRETCHWEB design in the outsole that ensures flexibility. It has a webbed pattern that runs the entire length of the external sole unit. Spaces and grooves assist in keeping the platform flexible. Slightly elevated nubs enhance traction.
