Rincon 4
Rincon 4 is a light road trainer designed for longer-lasting cushioning. Versus Rincon 3, it updates the foam, raises the stack and revises the fit. Two-layer injected EVA, rearfoot Active Foot Frame and Smooth MetaRocker shape the platform. Double-jacquard mesh and a padded tongue wrap the foot; a podular rubberized-EVA outsole targets durability. Select Japanese colors came in Wide.
