Blown Rubber, Forefoot : Is lightweight and flexible. It provides added cushioning while maintaining durability and a smooth ride.

EVA Plus, Midosole : An advanced EVA blend that maximizes rebound and durability while minimizing weight.

EVA Sockliner : Memory foam sockliners for an incredibly plush step-in comfort and faster recovery.

HydraMax Collar™ : A superior collar lining material that has great moisture wicking properties as well as a plush hand feel.
