About this product
- ESS Trail Armoring rock plate shields against stone bruising on rooty, rocky trails without adding bulk or stiffness
- Abrasion-resistant breathable mesh upper with reinforced TPU overlays sheds trail debris and holds up to brush, roots, and scrambling
- Dual-density EVA midsole (25mm heel / 17mm forefoot, 8mm drop) delivers snappy energy return without feeling stiff underfoot
- O FIT Insole is molded to match the exact shape of the Katabatic last — more natural contact, less dead space, better all-day comfort
- At 10.9 oz per shoe, it hits the sweet spot between a true trail runner and a supportive hiker — fast enough for big miles, protective enough for rough ground
