Icebug Arcus Mens RB9X GTX True Black 41 Trail running shoes

The perfect shoe for long gravel road runs. Arcus protects from foul weather thanks to the waterproof GORE-TEX® Invisible membrane. The membrane is integrated with the upper material, making it even softer and more comfortable than a traditional membrane bootie construction.

• This shoe is for the user that wants to have extra cushioning, whether it might be for longer runs, recovery runs or when running with a backpack. To enhance the comfort and great running feeling it has a rocker midsole to reduce pressure on the forefoot and heel and aid the momentum forward - giving a smooth stride. The midsole is made of compression molded EVA which enables a natural dual density where the forefoot has a higher density - giving a more responsive toe-off. This gives great comfort on longer runs and yet provides responsiveness and a great running feeling.
• The RB9X™ outsole provides traction on both dry and wet surfaces, making Arcus the perfect running shoe in most weather conditions.
• For what: Fall, winter and spring long distance runs
• Why we made it: Long distance runs and walks on gravel roads and light trails in all kinds of weather.

Technology

GORE-TEX

• Products with this symbol are 100 % waterproof and are engineered with GORE-TEX® Extended Comfort Footwear technology that carries the ''GUARANTEED TO KEEP YOU DRY'' promise. Water stays on the outside while perspiration can easily escape from the inside.

RB9X™

• RB9X™ – Rubber 9 Extreme is our latest rubber compound development, and it sets a new standard in providing friction. Lab tests (SATRA) show that RB9X™ outgrips the competition, but still matches the durability of an asphalt running shoe. In the real world, that means much more reliable traction in wet and slippery conditions and on challenging surfaces like rocks.
• RB9X™ is definitely a benefit for extremely demanding runners with high expectations on the shoes traction in mixed and tough terrain.
