With Kinetic Matrix Technology, the Vision provides the medial support of a motion control shoe without compromising lateral stability. But it does this whilst enhancing the efficiency of your walking gait, providing a barefoot-like transition from heel strike to toe-off. The Vision adds to this the forefoot flexibility and durability of a trainer, resulting in a great all-round active sport shoe.

Outsole

Perpetual Rubber™

Benefit: Hardest wearing material enhancing the durability and longevity of the shoe. Excellent traction between the shoe and the ground. Non-marking.

What is it: Specially formulated vulcanized rubber.

Where is it: On the bottom of the shoe where it contacts the ground.

Cushioning

Arch Support Insole (BUNGEE)

Benefit: Arch support insole with increased arch support and more cushioning. Removable, and so able to be replaced with orthotics if needed.

What is it: Specially formulated BUNGEE foam formed to cup around the heel and under the arch (thicker under the arch than our normal arch support insole providing more support). Holes distributed from the forefoot and around the arch, combined with channels moulded into the bottom of the insole promote airflow.

Where is it: Inside the shoe, directly under the foot.
BUNGEE™

Benefit: Provides great energy return over a long period, so that the spring stays in your step no matter how far you walk or run.

What is it: Bouncy elastic sponge material.

Where is it: Mostly used in the midsole (for a limited number of styles), or the insole.
EVA

Benefit: Soft, lightweight cushioning that absorbs impact shock.

What is it: ethylene-vinyl acetate

Where is it: The midsole of the shoe, which is the part under the foot, between the outsole and the upper.
POLIMAX®

Benefit: Cushions and protects the area directly underneath the foot. Assists in keeping the foot cool, and controlling sweat. Anti-bacterial, controlling odor.

What is it: Open cell soft urethane foam.

Where is it: Used in insoles or directly underneath the insole (inside the shoe), and is full length from toe to heel.

Stability

Heel Stabiliser

Benefit: Additional heel stability and ‘hold’ around the base of the heel. The Scholar style has an extended heel stabilizer, providing additional medial stability for over-pronators.

What is it: A hardened thermoplastic urethane moulded wedge.

Where is it: Wraps around the base of the upper at the heel, between the upper and the midsole. The flange extends under the thermoplastic heel counter, holding it in place.
Kinetic Matrix™

Benefit: A system of technologies combining to enhance gait efficiency and reduce fatigue to the foot and lower limbs.

What is it: Firm, lightweight sculpted EVA cradle, Full length BUNGEE cushioning and a thermoplastic heel stabiliser.

Where is it: The midsole of the shoe, which is the part under the foot, between the outsole and the upper.
Nylon Shank

Benefit: Supports the arch area of the foot, and prevents the shoe from bending in the wrong place (in the middle of the shoe). The shoe should naturally bend across the joints in the forefoot region.

What is it: A hardened nylon piece.

Where is it: Placed internally (in the sole) in the arch area of the shoe.
TR Heel Counter

Benefit: Supports the ankle and holds the heel firmly in place, providing excellent stability when the foot first strikes the ground. A firm heel counter is essential for fundamental support and stability.

What is it: Thermal Rubber material that is shaped to match the contours of your heel.

Where is it: Inside the upper part of the shoe, surrounding the back and sides of the heel.

Upper

Air Mesh

Benefit: Ventilates and cools the foot.

What is it: Three layer interwoven textile mesh with a fibrous centre, through which air flows freely.

Where is it: On the upper (top part), normally on the vamp and middle section of the shoe, or on the lining of a leather shoe.
No-Sew Construction

Benefit: No abrasive contact points on the upper of the shoe.

What is it: Seamless upper construction.

Where is it: Upper
