FAQs
Are these shoes suitable for marathon running?
Yes, the Agility Peak 6 is designed for long miles on trails and offers excellent energy return and cushioning, making them suitable for marathon-distance trail races.
How does the FlexConnect™ technology improve stability?
FlexConnect™ technology is integrated into the midsole to provide a stable platform, allowing for secure footing and control, especially on uneven or challenging terrain.
What is the benefit of the Vibram® Megagrip outsole?
The Vibram® Megagrip outsole provides superior, unwavering grip on both wet and dry surfaces, significantly enhancing traction and confidence on technical trails.
Can I wear these trainers for casual walking?
While comfortable, these trainers are specifically designed for trail running. Their aggressive tread may wear down faster on hard surfaces like pavement, and they might be overkill for casual walking.
How do I ensure the best fit?
We recommend trying them on with the type of socks you typically use for trail running. Ensure there is enough room in the toe box for your toes to splay naturally, especially on descents.
What makes these trainers specifically for women?
The design incorporates a fit tailored for the female foot, considering differences in heel width, arch support, and overall volume for enhanced comfort and performance.
Troubleshooting
Slipping occurs on wet surfaces
Ensure the Vibram® Megagrip outsole is clean and free from mud or debris. The aggressive tread is designed for maximum grip, but accumulated dirt can reduce its effectiveness.
Feet feel fatigued on long runs
Verify the shoe size and fit. The Agility Peak 6 offers stability, but ensure there is adequate room in the toe box and no pressure points. Consider using specialized trail running socks.
Rocks or roots feel uncomfortable underfoot
The forefoot rock plate offers protection, but extremely sharp objects can still be felt. Ensure you are running on appropriate trails for the shoe's design and adjust your stride if necessary.
