Inov-8 Road-X 233 Running Shoes-122428:
A minimalist shoe with a sticky rubber sole, the Inov-8 Road-X 233 Running Shoes are as close to barefoot you can get while still protecting and supporting your foot with springy, responsive foam. Built with a fast-drying, breathable mesh upper, this unisex shoe is built on a performance last for a snug, precise fit that will decrease internal movement over uneven terrain. With a thin footbed that keeps your foot close to the ground in its most stable position, the midsole provides cushion and increases propulsion. A sticky rubber outsole may wear down a little faster than other rubbers but it provides grip and traction on the road that will keep you going strong. The Inov-8 Road-X 233 Running Shoe is engineered for elite runners who want a high performance road shoe that keeps their feet close to the ground for maximum power and speed.
