An unusual combination of sensitivity, softness and aggression. The X1 offers a more sensitive feel than most shoes. Trax SAS outsole, thin midsole and massive toe patch give it a true sock-like fit, without sacrificing security. It's built on a mid-volume, down-turned, cambered last to suit gym training and sending hard outside. The single hook and loop strap closure makes it easy to get on and off.

Synthetic, perforated Synthratek VX upper has a slight elasticity for a close, snappy fit
Single-pull closure system is secure, supportive and keeps buckles out of the way of aggressive toe hooks
VTR rubber rand is thicker in high wear areas for long-lasting performance
Large toe rubber patch for comfort and security while toe-hooking
Thin 0.6mm EX-P midsole offers great sensitivity underfoot
Soles are 4.2mm Trax SAS high-friction rubber
Evolv suggests sizing the same as your street shoe size
