Offering top of the line off-road performance the Nike Shox Junga trail running shoe delivers comfort and support over severe terrain. A durable carbon rubber outsole provides the first element of superior performance. Molded to Nike's Waffle Blade traction configuration it grips the mountainside whether ripping down a set of muddy switchbacks or sailing across gravel-strewn flats. The midsole shock absorbing ability of the Nike Shox Junga men's trail running shoe is nothing short of first class. When your heel strikes the ground the Nike Shox heel columns absorb the impact and then provide return energy to propel the foot forward. Likewise the low-profile Zoom Air cushioning in the forefoot absorbs impact and then provides return energy at toe-off. The upper rounds out the complete package of superior performance components found on the Nike Shox Junga trail running shoe. A breathable mesh keeps the air circulating as the miles and temperature climb drainable for those occasional splashdowns in wide streams. The Frame-fit upper offers great support and fit too snugly locking your foot into place for precise placement when running a gauntlet of boulders or climbing a staircase of roots. The Nike Shox Junga is geared for runners with a neutral gait.
