Pytho has been around for many years – this is the sixth generation! It combines features that many runners appreciate; medium drop, torsional rigidity and a spacious, protective toe box. The Putek mesh upper is extremely light and durable, it also keeps water absorption to a minimum resulting in almost no weight increase in wet conditions. A Mudguard around the entire shoe protects when the trail gets more technical. The midsole adds torsional stability and the right level of support for trail running. The 9 mm drop hits the sweet spot for a shoe targeting light trail running and encourages high speed but also goes well with long recreational runs. The outsole has the traction benchmark RB9X rubber compound and a tread pattern made to grip also in muddy conditions. For what: Trail runner for all kinds of terrain. Why we made it: Running and orienteering shoe built for training and racing. Key features: Light and low wet weight RB9X™ non-studded traction rubber Medium drop and cushion give great ground control Torsional rigidity and roomy toebox for long distance comfort Sustainable highlights: Midsole EVA contains 20% BLOOM® foam, which is made from algae from overgrown lakes.
