Inov8 Roclite G 345 Walking Boots

Providing you supreme comfort and confidence on the trails, the Roclite G345 features G-Grip outsole for secure grip and traction and a soft midsole for comfortable landing.

Breathable Mesh Upper

For cool, ventilated feet, the walking shoes have a breathable mesh upper, preventing irritation and keeping you comfortable. Air passes through the materials and allows hot air to escape and be replaced by cooler air, keeping the feet refreshed. The boots use ADAPTERWEB, a technology developed by Inov8 which adapts to the natural movement and swelling of the feet while in motion. A thick material covers the toes, preventing injuries from occurring through stubbings and other bumps. Covering the heel, the shoe uses the X-LOCK system. This holds the heel in place, preventing slipping and providing additional support. The laces secure the shoes, keeping feet comfortable and locked in, while a padded tongue ensures that comfort is provided. A padded ankle collar will prevent irritation through rubbing and chafing and increase support to prevent injuries.

EVA Midsole

Injected into the midsole, there is a strong EVA that works to both protect and cushion the feet. Towards the top the EVA is more cushioning, providing a soft feel directly on the sole of your foot. As you get further down the midsole, the EVA changes and is more shock-absorbing, meaning any bumps and knocks from rocky and uneven terrain is absorbed instantly, preventing the sharp impacts from coming into contact with the feet. Using a POWERFLOW midsole, the boot delivers 10% better shock absorption than a standard midsole, and in addition towards the forefoot, the midsole also provides you with a 15% better energy return than normal Inov8 boots. Firm and sturdy, the solid structure of the midsole will increase the boot's lifespan, holding its shape and functionality over periods. Within the midsole, the boot uses a META-PLATE shank. This will provide greater forefoot flexibility as well as control, whilst also retaining underfoot impact protection.

G-Grip Rubber Outsole

Featuring Inov8's G-Grip, the graphene grip rubber outsole provides unrivalled grip and traction over unpredictable surfaces, whilst increasing the outsole durability across a variety of terrain, from mud to wet mountain rock and hard-packed trials, the Roclite 345 has you covered.

What Is Graphene Grip?

The revolutionary Graphene Grip technology is the toughest and most durable outsole compound that Inov8 has ever created, arguably the toughest and most durable outsole compound on earth. Graphene Grip is scientifically proven to be 50% stronger, 50% more elastic, and 50% harder wearing. Inov8 has gone from using 3 compounds with varying levels of grip vs durability to 1 compound which is Inov8's most sticky but durable outsole yet.

Inov8 Shoe Fit Scale

For technical footwear, a good fit is essential to enhance your performance. Inov8's new Shoe Fit Scale makes it easier to find the perfect fitting shoe. All Inov8 shoes are designed with Met-Cradle technology to lock down the mid-foot for a stable hold, where they differ is in the toe box. The shoes are now graded from 1 to 5, Grade 1 representing their closest, most precise fit and Grade 5 representing the widest fitting toe box.

The lower the number on the scale, the narrower the fit, which ensures minimal internal movement of the foot when running fast on technical terrain. Shoes with the higher numbers on the scale will suit athletes with a wider foot and those wanting that extra comfort in the toe box. This wider toe box allows the toes to splay for increased stability when lifting heavyweights. It's also perfect for longer runs and races when toes begin to swell.

Inov8 have graded the Roclite 345 Walking Boots as Grade 3.
