Explore further with the Vimana Hybrid Carbon. Tested over 1000's of kilometers in the Coastal Mountains of British Columbia, this hybrid running shoe features a 3/4 length CARBITEX® AFX™ carbon fiber plate.
The introduction of CARBITEX® technology brings a wide variety of performance enhancing qualities to play. The plates' asymmetrical flex pattern protects the foot from overextending and provides torsional support without limiting forefoot flexibility. This reduces foot fatigue over long distances and while carrying substantial weight - like a heavy pack.
The strategic location of the AFX™ carbon fiber plate - between the outsole and the midsole - doubles as a rock plate to protect your foot over the most demanding terrain.
Unlike most plated trail shoes the ability of the AFX plate to flex with the foot combined with the plate’s location ensures excellent proprioception and will not lead to a stiff rocker effect.
The Meta Platform Outsole™ features a contoured full rubber bottom for dependable and predictable grip. Faceted triangular tread pattern with radiused edges is designed to eject dirt and minimize ankle-roll.
STRIKE’s Cush50™ EVA/EPE midsole compound offer long lasting cushioning while maintaining crisp rebound.
Built around STRIKE MVMNT’s S2 Last with anatomical toe box and 4mm drop. The hybrid outsole design transitions over various terrain seamlessly.
