Scott Supertrac 3.0 GORE-TEX Trail Running Shoes
Scott's most popular mountain performance shoe with ALL TERRAIN TRACTION and GORE-TEX to handle everything from the muddiest valley floor to rocky mountain ridges.
GORE-TEX and Ripstop Mesh Upper
Surrounding the upper of the shoe is a GORE-TEX membrane which will provide the shoe with durable waterproofing. The thin layer prevents the entry of moisture into the shoe, perfect for damp and long days out where keeping your feet dry is essential. As well as this, the membrane will allow air to pass in and out of it for ventilation. For the rest of the upper, Scott has used an extremely breathable and lightweight Ripstop Mesh, which will provide multiple benefits to the shoe. The material is extremely breathable, which means that as you start to exercise and warm air starts to build up inside the shoe, it is removed and then replaced, which will keep you feeling cool and fresh. In addition to this, the moisture produced from sweat is able to escape out of the mesh, which will retain comfort and climate control. Constructed with a no-sew design, this will reduce the risk of irritation from causing as there are no seams or stitches that will rub or cause chafing. The forefoot and sides are protected by firmer material which will instantly absorb bumps and heavy forces placed against it, softening the impact placed on vulnerable areas of the feet. The traditional lacing system is easy to tighten to a comfortable and secure fit, whilst the form-fitting tongue will sit gently on the ankle and act as a locking system for your foot. A heel loop on the back will make carrying muddy shoes after your run clean and easy to do. A soft insole will provide you with personalised cushioning for maximum comfort while the toe guard helps protect you from any rocks or uneven surfaces.
eRIDE Midsole
In the midsole Scott has used eRIDE, an innovation that will not only provide plenty of cushioning and protection from underfoot but will also promote a faster and more efficient running style, helping you to save energy and go further. The eRide midsole will also promote a more dynamic running position by reducing the impact of heel strikes. This means that more energy will be able to go into strides rather than wasted on heavy impacts with the ground. In addition, the energy created by heavy contact with the ground will then be transferred into rebound which will improve running fluidity. Within the midsole, Scott has used engineered AEROFOAM+ to provide a highly technical and responsive ride. Towards the top of it, the AEROFOAM+ is soft and will provide you with plenty of cushioning. This will also mean that every step taken will have less stress placed on the joints and bones in the feet, reducing fatigue and the risk of injuries. The midsole will also absorb bumps and shocks from uneven terrain, which will stop sharp pressure from reaching the foot. This will keep you in comfort for a long period of time, and it will also give you the confidence to tackle any terrain.
Full Rubber Outsole
The Full Rubber Outsole has a configuration that will help you stay in control of every step for longer. The rubber used is extremely durable, which means that it will be able to retain all of its properties over a long course of time. The lugs are strategically positioned to give you outstanding traction and control. As beneficial on dry ground as it is in deep mud, the lugs are able to dig into the ground, assisting with takeoffs by securing your foot and providing a firm base to take off from. It will also dig into to the ground as you start to brake, giving you full control at all times. In addition, there are strategically orientated chevrons placed all around the forefoot, which will provide extra stability and support over long hours and long distances of running.
