1. Mid-cut TechLoom upper construction is seamlessly woven from performance textiles resulting in a true one-piece upper for an exceptional fit.
2. Articulated eye row allows foot to flex using minimal overlays to maintain a light weight. 
3. External heel counter provides lockdown and support.
4. Midsole/outsole compound developed for direct ground contact, enabling the use of less rubber on the outsole, significantly reducing the weight of the shoes.
5. Propelium™ is designed to maximize energy generation and provide superior comfort that will maintain midsole structural integrity longer than conventional EVA.
6. Inspired by the shape of a feather, the outsole incorporates natural motion flex grooves that react to every movement.
