The Salomon Genesis 2 GORE-TEX is a men's trail running shoe. It has a Matryx upper, a contaGRIP rubber outsole and a revamped activeCHASSIS. The Matryx textile is designed to resist abrasion, and the GORE-TEX Invisible Fit membrane provides waterproof protection.
Inside, an endoFit sleeve hugs the foot. The tongue and heel collar are padded to hold the foot snugly and reduce debris entering the shoe. The quickLACE system tightens with one pull and makes the shoe easy to put on and take off.
The optiFOAM midsole is a lightweight, cushioned foam with energy return. The activeCHASSIS adds support, and the rocker geometry assists the gait cycle. Multi-directional lugs dig into wet ground to anchor the foot.
