Salomon DRX DEFY GRVL Women's Running Shoes
Your run doesn't stop where the road drops off. This is gravel. DRX DEFY GRVL is a lightweight guided trainer that empowers you to keep going, even off the pavement. Wrapping your foot to hold it in place and deliver the perfect amount of support. Dare to escape the beaten path and defy the gravel.
Breathable Mesh Upper
Providing comfort and support on every run, the Salomon DRX DEFY GRVL features a breathable mesh upper. The lightweight, soft upper provides feet with outstanding breathability to prevent feet from overheating and uses a minimal seam construction to reduce the risks of irritation or chafing from occurring. Ensuring a secure footing for a comfortable experience, the upper utilises SensiFit which wraps around your foot to hold it in place and create a snug feeling, making it a great running buddy. Synthetic overlays feature in areas of the shoes that are usually high-wearing, to keep your toes well-protected from rocks and uneven surfaces. With a plush fit, the shoes have a soft padded tongue and collar zone that cradles your foot for comfort when running and during step-in. Completing the upper is a traditional lacing system that keeps your foot secure and locked in, preventing in-shoe slippage from occurring.
energyFOAM Midsole
Pushing you through each stride, the DRX DEFY GRVL is designed to propel you through gravel and road running endeavours, providing a versatile workhorse you can truly rely on for all styles of road running adventures. The shoes utilise Salomon's lightweight and extremely responsive energyFOAM technology, to provide feet with premium cushioning and excellent rebound providing you with a dynamic running experience. This soft, cushioned midsole propels you forward with each step for comfortable, bouncy strides. The midsole also provides shock-absorbing properties to reduce the impact when striking down onto harder, more unforgiving surfaces and helps to reduce risks of injury or discomfort from this. Working alongside this, the shoes utilise an activeCHASSIS system which channels your body's natural movement, bringing light guidance at the rear and a balanced, natural stride, further keeping your foot stable and reducing injuries.
GravelGrip Outsole
Inspired by gravel bike treads, the DRX DEFY GRVL utilises a GravelGrip outsole. This is designed to provide outstanding grip and traction across asphalt surfaces and gravel surfaces alike and allow transitions to be smooth and steady. The rubber is also extremely durable and abrasion-resistant, to ensure you are guaranteed long-term control. Grippy multi-directional lugs adorn the outsole to ensure optimum grip on the surface below.
