Agility Peak 5 Shoe - Men's

FloatPro Foam is a lightweight cushioning material used in the midsole of the shoe. It absorbs impacts effectively, providing exceptional comfort during runs. This means you can run longer distances with less fatigue, as the foam helps you feel like you're "floating" over the ground.

FLEXconnect features dual directional grooves in the shoe's midsole that allow it to flex and adapt to different terrains. This design improves ground contact and stability, making it easier to navigate various surfaces, whether you're on a smooth path or rugged trails.

Vibram Megagrip is a high-performance rubber compound used in the shoe's outsole, providing excellent traction on various terrains, including wet and slippery surfaces. This means you can confidently tackle challenging trails without worrying about slipping, ensuring a safer and more enjoyable running experience.

The Agility Peak 5 is the fifth version of this trail running shoe, featuring improvements in design, comfort, and performance based on feedback from previous models. It is specifically engineered for quick movements and responsiveness, making it ideal for navigating rugged, mountainous terrain.

A shoe with Neutral Support Type is perfect for runners who have a natural stride without excessive pronation (inward rolling of the foot). This design provides balanced cushioning and support, making it suitable for a wide range of runners, from beginners to experienced athletes.

While the Agility Peak 5 is primarily designed for trail running, its versatile features, such as the FLEXconnect and Vibram Megagrip, allow it to perform well on both trails and roads. However, for optimal performance on paved surfaces, you may want to consider a road-specific shoe if you primarily run on those terrains.
