INOV8 Men's Bare-XF Pro Barefoot Gym Shoes - Black/Gum - 9.5 Wide

Grippy Rubber Outsole: Keep your footing with our 2.5mm thick grippy rubber outsole. Lightweight grip for any gym-based exercise, including weightlifting, cardio, functional movements, walking and running. No Midsole = More Natural Feel: Feel the ground beneath you. A close to the ground design gives you a more natural/barefoot feel. Most gym shoes have a thick wedge of midsole foam to cushion impacts. The BARE-XF PRO does away with this to enhance spatial awareness and control of your feet. Protective Features: The BARE-XF PRO benefits from a number of protective features, while still retaining that natural feel. A toe bumper guards against painful stubs during exercises such as burpees. A KPU cupped heel gives you better stability when lifting. And a KPU Adapterweb overlay gives the shoe more structural support and protection too. Sock-Like Fit: Constructed using the sachetto method - a premium technique usually reserved for leather lined shoes - the BARE-XF PRO benefits from a seamless interior, as the seam is turned outwards. There is no insole in the shoe, courtesy of the BARE-XF PRO’s comfortable inner sock, which is stitched directly to the upper. Coupled with a stretch knit tongue and collar, the shoe is extremely comfortable and flexible - exactly the fit you want with a minimalist training shoe. ROPE-TEC: Protection and durability during rope climbs. ROPE-TEC technology embedded into the midsection of the outsole and around the arch of the foot gives protection from friction on rope climbs, and delivers increased durability.
