BÄR HighPerformance 2.5 - “The official shoe of the Badwater Ultramarathon 2008 – The World's Toughest Foot Race!”
Features
Reflectors Particular attention was paid to the runner being seen clearly at dusk or in the dark. The network of reflectors covering the entire shoe works like a giant cat’s eye: if light from a vehicle’s headlamps falls onto the shoe, you cannot miss the runner.
The lacing system of the HighPerformance 2.0 means the shoe fits your foot perfectly, taking both a high instep and a flatter instep into consideration. The more solid shaft also offers more support for the runner and ensures a snug fit.
The breathable uppers ensure that superfluous warmth and moisture are quickly channelled away from the foot to the outside.
Triangular-shaped elements To ensure you do not lose contact with the floor and have sufficient grip on every terrain, BÄR developed special triangular-shaped elements. The advantage: outstanding traction and good self-cleaning soles on all surfaces.
Snug fit thanks to the TPU midfoot chassis. The chassis offers support for the arch and stability for the whole foot.
The generous toe zone of the HighPerformance 2.5 is as unique as it is innovative in the running shoe sector and has been a central component of the BÄR philosophy for 25 years.
Grooves for maximum shock absorption absorb a large proportion of the force of impact when the shoe hits the ground.
