The Mount to Coast T1 trail running shoe is a comfortable, agile footwear style created with ultrarunners in mind to help them take to the trail with confidence.
The shoes are constructed with aramid fibers in the upper to maximize resistance to abrasion and damage, while the knit tongue is water repellent to keep moisture at bay. The sneakers feature the LightCELL midsole that's reported to deliver 45% more energy return yet weighs in at less than half than EVA material. The sneakers are paired with a Vibram Megagrip outsole alongside Traction Lug technology to maximize grip and stability on uneven terrain.
The Mount to Coast T1 trail running shoe boasts a dual-zone TUNEDFIT lacing system to maximize their ability to support a secure fit without restricting movement.
