New Balance introduces another technology update in 2011 in this FloFocus: NB Minimus. Check out what their NB Minimus technology does for their latest road and trail shoe.
NB Minimus Road
Product Description
NB Minimus is a whole new approach to athletic footwear, inspired by Barefoot Running and designed to be worn with or without socks. The NB Minimus Road running shoe is engineered for use on pavement and other varied running surfaces. Supremely comfortable and extremely lightweight, the MR10 is taking the running world by storm.
Product Details
• NB Minimus is a whole new approach to footwear, a place on the spectrum from barefoot running to the traditional maximum-cushioning running shoe. Inspired by Good Form Running and designed to be worn with or without socks. With only a 4mm drop from heel to toe, as little as a third of that of a traditional running shoe, the NB Minimus collection holds a world of discovery for neutral runners as well as those with gait issues or chronic injury to conquer by learning better form.
• Synthetic/Mesh upper provides lightweight comfort and support
• Odor resistant
• Deconstructed REVlite midsole provides great flexibility and a featherweight cushion
• No-sew forefoot construction minimizes weight and reduces seams
• Lightweight blown rubber for effective bounce
CAUTION: This product should be introduced slowly into a running exercise routine. Overuse of this product or use for activities outside of running and walking may increase the risk of sustaining injury. This product increases the strain on the foot, calf, and Achilles tendon. New Balance recommends limiting initial use to 10% of overall running workouts and very gradually increasing time and distance.
