UPPER
Material: Stretch woven upper
Comfort: Really comfortable, especially the lockdown through the midfoot.
Breathability: Very breathable, especially in the toebox.
Tongue: My favorite part of the upper is the extra padded tongue!
Lockdown: The extra padding in the tongue allows for better synch of the laces, thus creating a snug and comfortable lockdown.
Collar: Not plush, but very soft, especially in the collar and heel counter.
MIDSOLE
Midsole: DNA Flash midsole creates a soft landing.
The midsole is lively underfoot, feels very lightweight, and easy to work through the foot strike with an energetic toe-off experience.
OUTSOLE
Material: Full length exposed DNA Flash midsole with rubber under the forefoot and heel. In my opinion there is about 30% too much rubber.
