Inov8 Terraultra G260 Trail Running Shoes
The world's toughest shoe for running the world's toughest trails. Revolutionary graphene-enhanced rubber delivers the world's toughest grip, with next-generation underfoot technology striking the perfect balance between comfort and responsiveness.
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 heavy weights. It's also perfect for longer runs and races when toes begin to swell.
Inov8 have graded the Terraultra G260 Trail Running Shoes as Grade 5.
Breathable Mesh Upper
The Terraultra G260 is fitted with a lightweight, highly breathable mesh upper that is biomechanically designed to enable the natural movement of the foot. The breathable nature of the shoe wicks away sweat to leave you dry and fresh, even on tough terrain in poor conditions. Kevlar overlays - commonly used in bulletproof vests - are inserted to give an incredibly high level of durability and toughness to the upper, giving the shoe an outstanding blend of toughness, and comfort whilst still retaining its lightweight. The Exterofit upper adapts not only to natural movement during running but also common swelling encountered during long-distance running, reducing pain and improving comfort considerably.
Exteroflow Midsole
The midsole provides high levels of underfoot cushioning without compromising on ground feel. The cushioning absorbs, stores and then releases energy to propel you through the gait cycle. By minimising shocks when your foot hits the ground, the midsole ensures a smooth, comfortable transition and reduces the risks of repetitive injury. A next-generation meta-plate provides ample underfoot protection. Zero drop promotes the best natural form for the athlete with a large range of motion in the ankle joint.
Graphene Grip Outsole
Utilising the world strongest material, these G-series shoes use graphene-enhanced rubber which is 50% stronger, 50% more elastic and 50% more hardwearing to create an all-around trail running shoe. The durable nature of the tough rubber provides peace of mind when running on uneven, rocky terrain whilst the added elastic provides multi-directional flexibility ideal for trail running. Unifying the outsole, Meta-Flex forefoot flex grooves and Fascia Band tech can be found along the outsole lending the forefoot greater freedom of movement. This allows the shoe to become more receptive and have greater propulsion underfoot.
