Men's Mafate X Shoes Zest/Mountain Fog

Maximum cushioning and stability for long distances The MafateX is designed for ultra-trail enthusiasts, gravel grinders, and 100-mile races. Its dual-density midsole combines a lightweight PEBA upper for a soft feel and a super-critical EVA base for support and durability, while offering a powerful push-off thanks to the forked carbon fiber plate. The 8mm drop ensures a smooth transition, while the J-Frame™ system and Active Foot Frame® keep the foot stable and protected even on the most challenging trails. Advanced grip, traction, and comfort. The upper, made of ultra-lightweight and breathable fabric, allows for quick drying and effective ventilation, ideal even in wet conditions. The Vibram® Megagrip outsole with 3.5mm lugs and zonal rubber inserts ensures secure grip on mixed terrain, from mud to rocks, allowing for a stable and comfortable ride. Finished with a protective TPU toe cap, a gusset tongue, and reflective details, it is designed to tackle every trail challenge with confidence. Balanced, responsive, and reliable ride. The MetaRocker™ promotes smooth heel-to-forefoot transitions, while the SCF TPEE sockliner adds functional softness. The model weighs approximately 343g (12.1oz), perfect for those seeking comfort without sacrificing long-distance running performance. The combination of a responsive midsole, protective heel, and stable base makes the MafateX an excellent choice for those who enjoy running long distances with ease, without losing momentum.
