Product Info
SWIMRUN ESC MICHELIN© OUTSOLE
The high-vis Michelin© sole for all-terrain traction.
2mmVivos are designed with thin soles to help reconnect you with the ground, and provide flexibility for strong, healthy feet.4mmTread depth refers to the thickness of the patterns or "lugs," on the sole. These are purposefully designed to cater to specific surfaces and conditions, providing an ideal combination of traction, grip, and a sense of connection with the ground.The Swimrun Esc Michelin© Sole is engineered with 4mm multi-directional lugs from sticky, durable rubber, giving you support and peace of mind over tough terrains. With unprecedented traction and grip across all surfaces (including slippery ones), the multi-directional lugs let you brake and change direction with control. Ideal for any type of swimrun adventure.Human beings aren’t separate to nature, we are nature. When we listen to it's rhythm and connect to its intelligence, we thrive. It's time to get outside and rewild.BLOOM® FOAM INSOLE
The Active Bloom® Foam Insole is made using the first sustainable alternative to synthetic and petrochemical EVA foam, derived from algae biomass. This algae can damage our oceans, so harnessing it in our footwear helps clean up the environment.
BREATHABLE MESH
Breathable, lightweight and comfortable.
PUNCTURE RESISTANT
The Pro5 Puncture Resistant finish is a lightweight and flexible 0.8mm layer on the sole. Protective underfoot to keep painful bits out, but still letting all the feeling in.
VEGAN*
*The main materials in all our Vegan* products are synthetic and aren’t derived from animals. We don’t (yet) have the transparency we need over the production of all the small components (such as adhesives and dyes) used in these products to ensure they meet vegan best practices. So, whilst we believe the shoes are vegan, we’re not yet able to guarantee it and want to be fully transparent.
