Why choose Men's Trekking Sandals? Key technical parameters
For an experienced runner, the choice should balance traction, stability, and the ability to recover on wet rock. These technical parameters guide the selection among sandal models and related variants within Men's Trekking Footwear.
- Drop: range that spans from zero to several millimeters, affecting foot strike transition and pronation; a low drop favors a more natural stride on mixed terrain.
- Stack: height of the midfoot and heel sole that affects cushioning and ground feel; a moderate stack provides stability without losing ground sensation.
- Cushioning: midsole material (EVA/PU) and density; regulates impact absorption over kilometers of running while maintaining energy for high VO2max.
- Sole stiffness: controlled flexibility for technical descents and protection against sharp rocks; defines stride efficiency and the shoe's response.
- Weight: weight per pair and load distribution; lightweight models aid in maintaining pace on long outings, without sacrificing grip or protection.
