Rincon 5

Daily TrainerRelease date 2026-07JP

Rincon 5 is a fifth-generation road daily trainer for regular runs and walking. Compared with Rincon 4, it adopts a sleeker fit, a revised single-layer compression-molded EVA midsole, and a higher 8mm drop to smooth transitions. A breathable engineered-mesh upper and Smooth MetaRocker guide the stride, while podular Durabrasion rubber keeps the outsole flexible and reinforces high-wear zones.
