Stability and cushioning
The Advanced Chassis helps stabilize your heel, and it's surrounded by generous cushioning for maximum comfort on the trail.
Grip
Two different types of rubber result in better grip. A patterned area on the heel grabs terrain more aggressively, giving you more control especially on descents.
