The rear stabilizing heel insert allows for perfect control on cross passages. The lacing system is integrated with the upper material through eyelets sewn onto the inner elastic fabric, as well as through reinforcements in hard plastic on the outer mesh. This system enables an even distribution of lacing tension across the entire upper for maximum comfort. The laces and the Ortholite® Hybrid insole are also made from recycled materials.
