Lowa Fortux GTX Running Shoe - Women's Dune/Grape, 6.5

As the miles tick by, and wet valleys become bare ridgelines, the LOWA Fortux GTX Running Shoe keeps us striding, even after our form starts to crumble. The breathable GORE-TEX membrane shuts out moisture yet lets our sweat move out, while the sticky rubber sole gives us grip on slick rocks. With a carbon-plate equipped midsole, this pair keeps our toe offs snappy despite our fatigued legs, and the platform's rockered geometry keeps our transitions smooth, no matter how clunky our body begins to feel.
