Gradient Density™ EVA Midsole

There's no other midsole like it. Custom formulated to provide cushioning and rebound with better long-term durability than any other running shoe on the market. No marshmallows here.

The Gradient Density™ EVA has more bounce under the ball of your foot and then gradually becomes more stable towards your heel. This ensures you're always running with 3X Support™ for all 3 arches in your foot.

You can't see it, but you'll feel the difference from heel strike to toe off.

Versatile Road-to-Trail Outsole

Pound the pavement or go off-road. Two different rubber compounds form a single, seamless rubber outsole that performs in even the most demanding terrain.

The forefoot rubber is formulated for increased grip and the heel is dense, durable and won't wear down after miles of running or ruck running.

Lightweight Mesh Upper

Seamless, one-piece 100D polyester mesh provides breathability and flexibility without cramping your toes. At 330 g/sqm it's the ideal balance of weight and toughness.

High-wear areas are reinforced with a protective TPU film. We targeted the toe area for abrasion resistance and the midfoot to heel area for additional lockdown support.

10mm Offset

A 10mm heel-to-toe drop allows for the ideal balance between a running stride and a rucking gait. You have enough of a lift to reduce the strain on your achilles and support your heel strike while still controlling your cadence.

3D Molded Heel Lock

Comfortable PU foam bolsters lock in the heel to prevent slippage and excessive movement around the ankle. This allows you to secure your heel into the shoe without relying on lace-locking or lacing too tightly.

Anatomically Molded TPU Heel Counter

Anchors your foot with a supportive, injection molded heel counter that stabilizes your heel when you're moving with momentum.

Custom High Density Insert

Dense, PU foam insert custom made to fit the contours of the foot supporting all three (3) arches of the foot — yes, you have three arches in your foot (the medial longitudinal arch, the lateral longitudinal arch and the anterior transverse arch). 

RUN WITH 3X SUPPORT™

3X SUPPORT™ FOR ALL 3 ARCHES IN YOUR FOOT

You have 3 arches in your foot...not just one. Rough Runner™ are built to support all 3 of your arches.

Rough Runner™ Explained

Built for the Strenuous Life

Named in honor of the original Rough Runner

“I wish to preach, not the doctrine of ignoble ease, but the doctrine of the strenuous life, the life of toil and effort, of labor and strife; to preach that highest form of success which comes, not to the man who desires mere easy peace, but to the man who does not shrink from danger, from hardship, or from bitter toil, and who out of these wins the splendid ultimate triumph.”

– Theodore Roosevelt
