13 PRODUCT TECH & BENEFITS: MIDSOLE: l New nitrogen-infused FLYSPEED midsole foam cushioning delivers our softest-ever ride, combined with incredible bounce and energy return. Ultralight and durable, the foam is our first to feature the use of nitrogen gas, reducing the amount of energy and chemicals used in the manufacturing processes. l Testing shows that FLYSPEED foam gives back 65%-68% of the energy put in. A standard foam midsole gives back 45%-48%. l Overall stack heights of 33mm in the heel and 25mm in the forefoot, combined with an 8mm drop, help deliver lots of underfoot comfort for running longer distances. l An 8mm deep ADAPTER-FLEX groove helps the shoe adapt, flex and mould to uneven terrain for a connected trail ride. It helps free the midsole of rigidity and works in tandem with the foot’s midtarsal joint to increase mobility. OUTSOLE: Graphene-enhanced rubber delivers the world’s toughest grip – insane sticky traction AND increased durability, no compromise. 50% stronger, 50% more elastic, 50% harder wearing, scientifically proven. l Multi-directional 4mm deep lugs on each shoe have been meticulously shaped and positioned to improve both propulsion at the front and braking at the rear. Measured spacing between the lugs REVIEW : INOV8 prevents debris from sticking to the outsole, while water dispersion channels and rubber dimples give extra grip on slick surfaces. l Vertical grooves cut into the rubber allow the foot’s metatarsal bones to move more independently, aiding adaptability and flexible grip when running over uneven terrain. UPPER: l A breathable, stretchy knit material upper, combined with a padded tongue, provide enhanced comfort without compromising on durability. l The fit has been designed to support and adjust to the natural swelling of the foot when running long distances. l Features our widest toe box, allowing extra wiggle room and comfort for toes, which are also protected by a front bumper. www.inov-8.com
