Master the mud in the MUDTALON SPEED, a shoe built for running fast over soft-ground trails and muddy hills. Building on the worldwide success of our iconic X-TALON and MUDCLAW ranges, the MUDTALON SPEED brings together the best of both to take grip, comfort and performance to new levels.
Featuring our trusted STICKYGRIP™ outsole, the MUDTALON SPEED has 8mm long lugs for gouging through mud. Uniquely positioned, these talon-like lugs then release the mud just as quickly. Our STICKYGRIP™ rubber will also cling to wet rock, giving the ultimate grip for hill, fell or mountain running.
The shoe has the perfect blend of cushioning and bounce, provided by a super-light POWERFLOW PRO midsole foam that works in combination with the BOOMERANG footbed. This amazing underfoot comfort and propulsion is built in such a way to still allow for the ground-feel you need when running over uneven, hazardous terrain.
Protection is also built into the MUDTALON SPEED. A new flexible rock plate and toe guard protect you from sharp rocks and hazard, without restricting your foot in any way.
The brand-new anatomical shape of the MUDTALON SPEED hugs the natural contours of your foot, locking in at the heel and widening at the toes for a secure, comfortable feel. Built into that we have two new specific fits for MUDTALON SPEED - Precision Fit and Wide Fit. The biggest difference between the two fits is the width at the toe-box, with the Wide fit being wider.
Go Precision Fit if you have narrow feet or like a closer, more secure feel. It allows for greater nimbleness and agility when running and contouring over steep or tricky terrain.
Fly fast over boggy ground or rocky mountain paths in the super grippy MUDTALON SPEED. A shoe for fast paced training and racing.
