Inside Outdoor | SUMMER 2021 38 XTRATUF XTRATUF introduces more sustainable alternatives to two of its core styles: the Ankle Deck Boot ECO and the Sharkbyte ECO for Spring ’22. The Ankle Deck Boot ECO (pic- tured here) features Yulex Foam plant-based alternative to standard neoprene. Yulex natural rubber, meanwhile, is derived from the sap of the Hevea tree. The new Ankle Deck Boot ECO will continue to offer a lightweight silhouette and XTRATUF’s SRA-rated non- marking and slip-resistant outsole, along with 100 percent waterproof protection. SCARPA The Rush Trail GTX is the newest extension of SCARPA’s Rush family. Its suede upper balances the light and agile feel of a trail running shoe with the support and protec- tion demanded of a hiking boot. Underfoot support, protection and traction come courtesy of the exclusive Presa outsole, which features SCARPA’s Interac- tive Kinetic System (IKS), a sole design that simultaneously increas- es traction and allows for more shock absorption on the trail. The IKS system features impact zones that compress and absorb energy, acting as mechanical shock absorbers. The sole’s SuperGum rubber compound provides secure grip on a wide variety of terrain, and a Gore-Tex bluesign lining provides waterproof-breathable protection. SRP is $169. Saucony One of four styles in the new Endorphin Trail line, the Endorphin Pro 2 takes the brand’s SPEEDROLL technology off-road for the first time. According to the company, SPEEDROLL Technology helps propel the runner forward more effortlessly. Endor- phin Trail blends SPEEDROLL with a thick stack of ultra-responsive, featherweight cushioning. A secure fit, grippy outsole and a versatile ascent/descent-friendly lug configuration provide the runner secure performance on any terrain. In-Season Original Muck Boot Co. The Outscape Lace Up is the latest addition to Muck’s Outscape collection. Its Muckskin flexible neoprene with abrasion-resistant TPU overlayer lends performance and versatility. Built to provide 100 percent waterproof protection and long-lasting comfort, the Outscape Lace Up features a footbed with Memory Foam, odor control and moisture management, self-cleaning outsole lugs for optimal traction, a shovel-ready nylon shank for added stability and a Guarden rubber toe and heel that extend wear.
