Just how important is the tread design to the performance of a sole unit?
2 distinct factors affect performance: the mix and the tread pattern design. Accurate choice of these two factors make the difference between a good and bad sole. Vibram is continually researching and testing new design solutions: “nail” designs patterns, the biomechanics of roll, stabilizing inserts, asymmetric contact points, thrust and brake points etc. Sole design is a fundamental element for a footwear product in terms of style but above all performance.
