Trail Glove 7

TrailAnnouncement date 2023-02-21

Trail Glove 7 is a minimalist trail and cross-country shoe built around natural foot movement. FloatPro cushioning and FLEXconnect grooves keep the platform flexible, while the wraparound Vibram EcoStep Recycle outsole grips wet and dry surfaces. Recycled mesh, a bellows tongue and an external heel sling combine breathability, debris control and a secure heel in a more cushioned build than Vapor Glove 6.
