The developers at Craft have come up with a universal shoe: The Craft ADV NORDIC SPEED 2 is ideal for cross country running and it is great for road running as well.
The shock absorption layer allows for long runs on asphalt. The damping is not that much so that you do not lose stability while running in the forest or on other uneven surfaces.
The upper is medium wide and is made from soft yet strong fibres which have been rubberized, protecting your foot and the shoe against rocks, roots and trail traps.
The main element which raises the comfort, stability and versatility of the NORDIC SPEED to a higher level is the stability of the inner shoe with the help of Kevlar reinforced fibres. This fibre joins the cushioning layer to the shoelaces. As soon as you put the shoe on and lace up, it creates a perfect “net” that effectively keeps the foot firmly inside the shoe. At the same time, it does not pinch anywhere, does not interfere and adapts to any foot shape.
