The sports firm Inov-8 is characterized as a company whose footwear is focused on trail running and extreme sports, something that is evident in this Roclite 282 GTX shoe Roclite 282 GTX for both competition and fast training on off-road terrain.
With a heel-to-toe drop of 9 millimeters, the Roclite 282 GTX is designed for runners who are perfecting their natural running technique. An all-terrain, multi-purpose shoe capable of performing optimally in all types of situations.
On the one hand, it is a fairly waterproof shoe thanks to its microporous Gore-Tex structure, preventing moisture from penetrating from the outside, which translates into fewer blisters and warmer feet in cold weather.
On the other hand, it is a shoe that has very good breathability, which means that water vapor can escape and the feet stay dry instead of sweaty, while in high temperatures they are cooler.
The rubber outsole with Sticky compound improves grip when the terrain becomes slippery and wet, although that is also detrimental to its wear, which occurs at a higher speed. In addition, the Roclite outsole has a series of 5.5 lugs to enhance effective grip on any surface.
Weighing282 grams, this Roclite model increases flexibility in the sole and protects the metatarsals from possible impacts by means of Meta-Shank technology. The other technology integrated into the shoe and patent pending by Inov-8, called Fascia Band, increases propulsion in each stride.
