A dynamic trailrunning shoe with a rocker midsole and highly responsive foam for powerful propulsion and high energy return.
The Arc'teryx Sylan 2 Men is designed for runners who want to combine speed and endurance on the trail. The rocker construction of the midsole allows the foot to roll smoothly and push off powerfully, while the highly responsive foam provides plenty of energy return and conserves energy when the day gets long.
An integrated carbon plate keeps the foot stable on uneven terrain, while the Vibram Megagrip outsole with Litebase technology ensures durability and traction in changing conditions. The stepped tread pattern with 4.5/3.5 mm lugs provides grip even where the ground becomes loose.
The super-lightweight upper made of performance fabric remains breathable, and the flat-knit tongue stabilizes the foot and improves air circulation during high-intensity activity. A flat-knit collar keeps gravel out and fits snugly around the ankle.
This is how the Sylan 2 Men gets you across the distance quickly and comfortably—and maybe even helps you set a personal best or two.
