Technical Features
The best of outdoor technology, underfoot.
A Nat's shoe is born from the sum and the quality of what holds it together.
We partner with the benchmarks of the outdoor world - Vibram®, Dyneema® - and combine them with our own construction technologies. We choose every material to improve the experience of every step: components that support you, from the first mile to the last.
The outsole
Vibram® MegaGrip
Reliable grip, on dry ground and wet.
The Vibram® MegaGrip compound with Shark-Tooth lugs delivers traction on rock, dirt and mud, adapting to whatever the path throws at you. Confidence underfoot, even where the terrain shifts.
- 4 mm lugs: up to 25% more traction across surfaces
- 1.5 mm outsole base: protection without added weight
- More ground contact along the sidewalls: greater lateral stability on uneven or sloped terrain
The upper
Dyneema®
The Strongest fiber in the world.
Remarkably light, it protects without weighing you down and extends the life of the shoe without dulling its feel. Originally developed for high-performance uses - from climbing gear to body armor - now it's the lightweight armor of your upper.
- Up to 15 times stronger than steel by weight
- Light enough to float on water
- Protection from sand and debris, reinforced with TPU at the toe and sidewalls
The midsole
Ground Control Chassis™
Designed to follow your natural movement.
Stability when you need it, energy returned at every phase of your stride. An ergonomic TPU plate and a dual-density midsole work together for a more efficient, more controlled step.
- Ergonomic TPU plate: limits twisting on uneven terrain and returns energy (rebound effect)
- Dual-density midsole: firmer outer wall for support and durability, softer central core for cushioning and responsiveness
- 6 mm drop and 15° toe spring: agile movement, better ground feel and a natural roll at toe-off
- 4 mm lugs: up to 25% more traction across surfaces
- 1.5 mm outsole base: protection without added weight
- More ground contact along the sidewalls: greater lateral stability on uneven or sloped terrain
The insole
Arch Fit
It works underfoot, without you noticing.
It absorbs impact, distributes load and supports a more efficient, more comfortable stride. A layered biomechanical insole built for long-distance comfort.
- ACF® cushioning pad: absorbs impact with every step
- EVA arch support: distributes load and supports the arch
- Breathable foam layer: manages sweat and heat, mile after mile
