Torin 9
Torin 9 is a neutral, zero-drop road shoe for daily runs and walking. Against Torin 8, its stack is lower, while P35X dual-density foam pairs a firmer exterior with a softer interior for balanced cushioning and stability. Vibram XS DURA improves grip and durability over its predecessor. A reshaped heel, raised tongue, breathable mesh upper, and Standard FootShape fit refine step-in comfort and natural toe movement.
