Winter edition of the Agravic shoe from Terrex
Adidas brand Terrex has brought to market a new trail-running shoe, the Agravic Gore-Tex. It has described the shoe as a “winterised edition” of Agravic model, saying it wanted to create a shoe that would enable trail runners “to enjoy the feeling of running fast on trails, no matter the weather”.
It has a Gore-Tex Invisible Fit membrane laminated to the upper material, plus a collar to help keep feet dry and to prevent debris from coming into the shoe.
It also has a rubber outsole with lugs of 4 and 5 millimetres for high levels of grip, even in wet conditions. The sole comes from Continental, a company best known now for its car tyres, but which started out in business in 1873 making soles for footwear.
As in earlier versions of the Agravic, Terrex has used a proprietary Lightstrike midsole.
