The outsole unit of the Track and field features the FriXion technology, which is made using durable rubber. It shields the rest of the platform from wear and tear while also doling out traction.
Aggressive and multidirectional gripping lugs pockmark the heel and forefoot sections. These angular protrusions heighten surface grip, particularly on rocky or jagged paths. The Trail Rocker configuration is a rocker shape that facilitates a natural and enabled heel-to-toe transition.
Akyra GTX provides responsive cushioning
An Injected MEMIex EVA serves as the underfoot cushioning system of the Akyra GTX. It carries the foot responsibly throughout the running session. It also absorbs the impact forces during the landing phase and gives an energized forefoot lift.
An Ortholite Mountain Running footbed makes sure to place additional cushioning for the underfoot. It has antimicrobial and anti-moisture properties that prevent sweat retention and odor.

AirMesh Ultra-Comfort is a soft and breathable material, and it’s used as the main component of the upper unit. Its breathing pores permit airflow into the foot chamber, thus maintaining a cool and dry environment. Furthermore, its three-layer assembly heightens durability and defense.
The TPU MicroLite Skeleton is a set of printed overlays that are reinforced with stitching in some sections. This web of thin external layers bolsters the structural integrity of the upper and keeps the foot from wobbling in place.
Track and field is a waterproof shoe
The GORE-TEX Extended Comfort provides waterproof protection. This membrane is also capable of preserving the breathable nature of the façade through its micro ventilation ports.
A rubber toe cap safeguards the toes from abrasive debris and irregular surfaces.
