Scarpa Spin RS8 Alpine Trail Running Shoes

Ideal for long distance trail runs, the Scarpa Spin RS8 alpine trail running shoe delivers an abundance of technical properties to help maximise both comfort and performance. The Vibram MegaGrip outsole ensures optimal grip and traction while the sock-fit offers a snug, comfortable feel for your feet as you run.

Synthetic Mesh Upper

A synthetic mesh material has been used in the construction of the upper to provide optimum breathability and abrasion-resistance. The mesh actively and efficiently wicks away the build-up of excess sweat and moisture, leaving your feet feeling cool, dry and comfortable as you strive for the best results and performance. Additionally, cool air is encouraged to circulate, creating a drier, healthier environment for your feet to thrive. Synthetic overlays add stability and support to the upper, guarding against abrasion and debris which is typically associated with trail running. The padded tongue sits comfortably against the skin, reducing friction and irritation while the traditional lacing system offers a secure, locked-in feel as you run.

Further stability is provided by the Autofit collar, offering an ergonomic design and maximum padding for additional comfort and support. The collar is highly adaptable, reducing the impact stress placed on the achilles and susceptible areas, lessening the risk of potential injury or discomfort. Sock fit is a construction system that offers a fit as snug as a sock, delivering the feeling of being at one with your footwear without causing discomfort or distraction.

EVA Midsole

An EVA compound resides in the midsole of the Spin RS8 to provide much-needed cushioning and underfoot comfort. The cushioning helps to absorb shock by lessening the impact placed on your knees and joints when landing. Having the ample cushioning also furthers the overall comfort, giving a smoother ride.

Vibram MegaGrip Outsole

Optimum grip and traction are provided by the Vibram MegaGrip outsole. This helps to deliver a firm, assured footing to give you the confidence required to take on the difficult terrain with consummate ease. Assisting the Vibram MegaGrip is another of Vibram's innovative outsole technologies - Litebase. This works by reducing the overall weight of the shoe without sacrificing performance to give you a more streamlined fit to encourage improved speed. Flex grooves are situated throughout the outsole to provide a full, unrestricted range of motion in all directions as well as maximum flexibility to be afforded to the wearer.
