If the Hi-Tec Gravel shoes are defined by anything, it is for being a very versatile shoe for walking on trails and in the mountains. Its versatility and dynamism is such that they can also be used for those small foot races that we do in nature, so it is a model recommended to share periods of walking and running alternately.
These hiking shoes designed by the English company provide a balance between comfort, protection, support and grip. It is also worth mentioning its lightness and that is why it can also be used as an occasional running shoe. Its design is also halfway between a racing shoe and a hiking shoe, hence its protected structure but at the same time with a very breathable material in the upper.
As we have mentioned, this Hi-Tec model aims to cover a broad spectrum of athletes, as it can be used by people who like to walk in the natural environment, but at the same time have the habit of jogging or running in certain comfortable stretches or downhill. However, it should be noted that it is not a shoe to cover long distances, so if we choose to run it should be in short distances. Walking is a different matter, and we will be able to perform long days of trekking with guarantee.
The terrain where this Hi-Tec Gravel will perform best is on compact and dry surfaces, although exposing it to somewhat more complicated terrain in the mountains will not pose an added problem for these trail runningshoes due to the good behavior of the sole.
Molded EVA midsole provides the cushioning needed for comfortable walking and running. The heel area is prepared for better shock absorption, so that the Gravel generate a very soft and pleasant first impact against the ground.
The upper combines large protective zones in the toe and side with a breathable mesh to allow the foot to breathe throughout the duration of physical activity. Its anti-friction collar and pull tab provide a noteworthy fit and support, feeling how the ankle feels stable and tucked in.
The multidirectional traction MDT outsole guarantees good performance in all types of terrain and weather conditions, although they will perform best on the roughest terrain or less technically challenging trails.
