Zoot Laguna

The Zoot LagunaRunning shoes are a training model with quite reliable features, as they offer durability and comfort, as well as a secure fit and good arch support. A large number of users have ranked these shoesamong the top three shoes manufactured by Zoot and also as one of the best overall choices in triathlon shoes.

These shoes offer good midsole features, utilizing a remarkable cushioning system designed by the brand that is a combination of two compounds Z Bound+ and ZVA, which have been strategically placed in full length for optimal performance.

Design of the Zoot Laguna

The upper of these shoes makes use of a lightweight mesh with fairly large holes that allow for increased breathability. The seamless design of the shoe adds comfort while reducing the risk of irritation or possible sores during prolonged wear. On the inside is theBareFit technology that provides a soft and comfortable feel to the foot, as if you were wearing a sock.

Despite the fact that the shoes are not the heaviest on the market (269 grams in the men's version, 232 grams in the women's version), some runners, mainly those with a light build, might come to feel the shoes heavy in long distance races, although it can be said that in general terms the Zoot Laguna offer optimal performance in this type of events.

The outsole uses Zoot Blown Rubber, which is proprietary to the American brand. This rubber offers guaranteed traction while running on different surfaces. The outsole design allows for constant contact with the surface, keeping the center of the outsole also in contact to allow for greater support and traction but without adding additional weight.

The shoes also boast a variety of quite modern colorways, which together with their classic yet contemporary construction, ultimately result in a model that works very well in competitive sports, but also looks great as a sneaker model for a casual look, which could even be incorporated into other sports.

Optimal and durable cushioning

As we have mentioned the midsole offers a combination of Z-Bound+ technology and injected ZVA foam, which allow for optimal and durable cushioning. The Z-Bound+ material is strategically placed throughout the entire midsole to ensure the performance of this area of the shoe by having two cushioning surfaces that allow for better dispersal of energy from impact with the ground.

As for the fit of the shoe, the Zoot Laguna fits well for runners of medium build, in the heel area it offers a smaller fit that has the mission to increase the protection of the area, but without limiting the movement, so the shoe will not be uncomfortable, even for those with a wider foot.

For many users, the Zoot Laguna is a very good choice when looking for a shoe with good construction and durability for a variety of sports disciplines such as running or triathlon.
