It has a one-of-a-kind midsole construction that manages to maintain the stability of the foot, regardless of gait.

Features

This shoe incorporates the same innovative Blade Light Technology in the midsole of both models, Blade Run and Blade Race. It makes use of blades that are, scientifically designed. These supply enhanced cushioning that is firm and responsive. As you are beginning to run at a slow phase, you flex a blade, one at a time but as you continue and increase in speed, you flex more blades and they become all the more, firm.

It includes an EVA midsole that comes with two densities that boost cushioning while enhancing durability in the foot. It integrates the special Superfoam crash pad in areas of the heel, sockliner and footbed, which gives a high return of energy that is said to last longer than those of other brands.

For added stability, it comes with a post at the shoe?s medial area that controls pronation and reduces collapse, resulting from fatigue experienced during marathons and other long races. However, this doesn?t, in any way, concern neutral runners that have a natural gait. This is, since, their forefoot supports their weight.

The shoe?s seamless upper allows the shoe to be worn in a sockless manner. It gives utmost comfort. It protects the foot from scratches that a runner may get from running barefoot. This does not have any visible stitches that may cause irritation or allergy.

It is made waterproof by Ion Mask hydrophobic technology. This uses a hydrophobic treatment that lets the shoe absorb even the smallest drop of water in the upper, the midsole and its laces. Rather than blocking the entrance of water, this coats the fibers, thus, providing ventilation. Shoe laces have cords at the ends to keep them, securely, tied.
