Tor Ultra Hi Trail Shoes
Riders from all corners of the globe have been receiving HOKA ONE ONE cushioning for six years. Today, the TOR SUMMIT MID WP finally brings this characteristic to hikers. The EVA and RMAT® material of the midsole provides unparalleled comfort under the foot and the geometry of the curved sole profile underneath the metas ensures a smooth stride. The technical geometry in the middle of the foot aims to improve the stability under the foot on the rugged terrain. Finally, the rubber of the Vibram® Mega-Grip outsole with its 5 mm studs offers a very good adhesion and an optimal longevity.
Upper Bootie Construction.
A groundbreaking blend of running shoe cushioning and supportive trekking uppers come to play in the TOR ULTRA HI WP to create a category-defining outdoor boot. The upper is made from full-grain leather for durability and support, with a moulded upper collar for flexibility and comfort. To add to this, the boot features Event waterproof membrane with full bootie construction for a water tight fit, that keeps the internal environment dry and comfortable.
The combination of leather and tough nylon mesh provides support around the foot and ankle, and allows air to permeate the interior for a cool and collected feel. Coinciding with these features, forefoot flex grooves are embedded to fold on impact for control and comfort and a protective rubber toe cap which is merged to reduce wear and tear from on coming rocks and roots.
Midsole Cushioning Compound.
The Meta-Rocker midsole geometry of the TOR ULTRA HI WP is specifically engineered with a low heel-toe differential and a sculpted outsole radius in the heel and toe. This encourages a unique natural rolling motion, supports natural form and encourages an efficient, continuous positive rolling motion from heel-strike to toe-off.
Unified with the meta-rocker, a uniquely engineered Active Foot Frame midsole geometry allows the foot to sink deeply into the shoe's midsole. This Benefit's integrated stability which is adaptable to a wide range of feet and running styles. With this midsole support 50% More Cushioning is asserted. The Engineered midsole volume is up to 2.5X the volume than standard running shoes, made with performance-specific cushioning material for excellent shock absorption and an inherently stable ride.
Outsole Traction Platform.
Vibram MegaGrip outsole rubber on Hoka One One's proven midsole blend of EVA and RMAT material provides both traction and cushioning. The outsole features a full ground contact design, flex grooves for improved stability and 5mm Vibram Megagrip lugs for superior floor fighting grip. The K-Shape outsole geometry provides dynamic guidance through a strong interior wall.
