Spongy, layered EVA foam absorbs impacts and improves sole flexibility for enhanced downhill stability. Chunky, skate-style upper with laces provides a comfortable and reliable fit for gravity riding. Water drainage channels along the sides of the outsole provide enduring grip performance and walkability. Asymmetrically raised padded ankle collar and sidewall sole for added protection.
