MEN A new addition to the trail running product line, Connect is for minimal shoe enthusiasts looking for an all-terrain shoe for running, walking and daily wear. Connect is our most minimal shoe, allowing for optimal ground feel. With no midsole and an all-terrain Vibram XS Trek outsole, the total stack height of Connect is 10.5 mm, for a flexible and natural ride. For an even more minimal ground feel, Connect offers a removable insole and a finished footbed, reducing the stack height to just 5.5 mm—composed solely of rubber and strobel board when the insole is removed. IMPORTANT NOTE: The Connect uses a natural gum sole. Due to this, some colour bleeding from the black upper is expected. This bleeding is strictly cosmetic and does not affect the performance of the shoe. We are not issuing returns on worn product for this as does not affect the performance of the shoe.
