INOV-8 INOV-8 ROCLITE 275 M V2

A newly redesigned version of one of the most versatile trail shoes - the INOV-8 ROCLITE 275 M V2.

The ROCLITE concept has gained a huge following in recent years thanks to its reliability and grip on technical terrain and its ability to handle longer stretches on paved roads. The most successful model of this family has been the ROCLITE G 275, which has now received a newly redesigned and improved version.

The base of the shoe is still the same - A finely tuned sole with 6 mm studs that bite into mud and rocks that won't let go even on steep decents. The contact area of the studs is large enough to ensure that the sole does not twist when running on hard ground and that it is stable on asphalt. Thanks to the presence of graphene, you can expect an uncompromising balance between grip and durability.

The cushioning layer retains the proven geometry with an 8mm drop and 16mm of material under the heel. However, there has been an upgrade in the foam, and now you can experience the benefits of POWERFLOW MAX. High-energy foam with excellent comfort and dynamics. Simply changing this material takes the comfort and speed of the ROCLITE 275 to a whole new level.

Major changes have been made on the upper. It still has a medium width (3), but the cut, materials and reinforcements have been completely redesigned. The new ROCLITE is snug and strong enough around the instep to support you even on technically challenging terrain, while giving much more room for the transverse arch and toes than ever before. Excellent handling and stability is ensured by external heel and ankle stabilisation. A double rubber lining protects the toes and a new solid mesh upper adds to the overall durability.

So the basic elements of the shoe remain very similar to what you might be used to about the ROCLITE. Changes to the cushioning and to the upper then take the comfort, dynamics and durability of the shoe to a much higher level.
