TrailReleased 2023-08-01JP

VECTIV Eminus is a trail running shoe for short-to-middle distances below 42 km. Its high-rebound EVA midsole and rocker geometry support forward propulsion, while a single-density 3D TPU forefoot plate adds multidirectional stability. Breathable performance mesh combines TPU lockdown overlays with toe and mudguard protection, and a Surface CTRL rubber outsole with 3.5 mm lugs targets grip across mixed terrain.

The exact official US NF0A4OAW page names a single-density 3D TPU forefoot plate, an explicitly non-carbon structure.
