Split Suede Upper
Constructed using a suede leather upper, the Five Tennie DLX Approach Shoes are trail worthy for any outdoor adventure. The durable upper protects your feet from knocks and scrapes whilst also ensuring your shoes look and stay newer for longer. The suede not only withstands the wear and tear you'll encounter while out and about, but is also highly stable. The suede leather overlays swathe the midfoot to provide the structure and support needed during any race; the leather upper offers optimal comfort and durability as you tackle the difficult, unpredictable terrain. As well as this, the upper also features breathable mesh which increases ventilation to keep you cool and comfortable at all times. The mesh allows cool air to circulate throughout the upper creating a perfect microclimate for your skin to thrive in. Completing the upper is a lace closure system which locks down the midfoot so you can enjoy distraction-free strides.
Boost Midsole
The midsole of the Five Ten Five Tennie DLX Approach Shoes has been constructed using adidas' signature boost midsole. As many know now, Boost is constructed from tiny TPU capsules that are moulded together to form a platform that is different to standard, solid foams; absorbing energy and then expelling it back out for a bounce-like effect. This energy return technology reduces the use of superfluous muscle power, diminishing fatigue and enhancing performance; keeping you going for longer. Capturing the energy you put into running and blasting it right back out, the newly optimised Boost midsole brings even more energy return to your ride. What makes this boost arguably better than other midsole compounds is that adidas has made the boost firmer to deliver 20% more responsiveness and cushioning compared to the original Ultra Boost. Boost also manages to maintain its special function and bounce in conditions as low as -20 degrees, making it a reliable, durable and hard to beat midsole.
Stealth Rubber Outsole
Developed using a Stealth outsole, the Five Tennie DLX Approach Shoe ensures unbeatable grip and unparalleled edging power. Designed to provide grip, traction and durability, the stealth outsole will get you through tough terrain or up any wall with ease. The high friction rubber allows you to grasp on to the smallest foothold and edge your way onto angled terrain; this versatile compound supports you as you cruise up the most technical terrain. Stealth is also highly durable so you can perform with complete confidence on rough, uneven and pointy terrain.
