First launched in 2008, our X-TALON trail running shoes have been our best-selling off-road shoes for more than a decade. In late 2019 we launched the new X-TALON G 235 featuring revolutionary Graphene-Grip™.
200 times stronger than steel, Graphene is the world’s strongest material and has been infused into the rubber outsoles, delivering all the benefits of sticky grip with the durability of graphene. A game-changer for the footwear industry.
