Who should buy the Track and field

Approach travelers have the Track and field’s TRAX Enduro outsole to thank when it comes to surface traction. Its rubber formulation delivers ample friction over a wide variety of terrain types.

Provides slip and skid resistance

The tenacity of this component is bolstered by its low-profile rectangular lugs. Its treaded heel delivers slip and skid resistance during downward traversals. Meanwhile, the smoothed-out construction of its forefoot tip provides extra grip on low-grade climbs.

Evolv’s Cruzer Psyche grants sufficient cushioning and footing balance with its soft-yet-tough microporous midsole. As it is made of EVA or ethylene-vinyl acetate, this springy layer can endure beatings the terrain sends its way.

The Track and field and the Jul 2, 2020 are two of the most sought-after approach kicks in circulation. Read through the following points to know their differences.

Weight. The featured approach hiker wins this round. Yes, it is lighter than the TX2 by about 60 grams.

Asking price. In this area, the Cruzer Psyche bags the crown yet again. Indeed, this Evolv offering is cheaper than its rival shoe by about $50.

Breathability. When it comes to ventilation, the TX2 seems to have the upper hand. This is because its upper is made of knit fabric, which is more breathable than the Cruzer Classic’s canvas-based shell.
