adidas TERREX has just launched its Skychaser AX5 GORE-TEX shoe, the latest addition to the renowned Skychaser range.
The versatile shoe blends style. comfort, performance and protection, offering an accessible entry point into TERREX’s most technical hiking line. While foam pods on either side of the heel ensure a secure, locked-in fit on uneven terrain, the sneakers' new, patented internal heel lining shields their GORE-TEX membrane from wear. The lining also helps the shoes stay dry and durable through tough conditions.
The Skychaser AX5 GORE-TEX also delivers long-lasting comfort with a lightweight LIGHTMOTION midsole and a Continental™ rubber outsole, designed for both wet or dry trail performance.
"We're seeing unprecedented enthusiasm for hiking and adidas is determined to supporting adventurers of all levels – helping them to progress towards new goals,” said Tom Louage Global Sr. Product Director Footwear Global Outdoor, adidas. The shoe is available now for €120 or $120 online at adidas.com, the adidas app, and select retailers.
