New Balance MT909

The New Balance MT909 is a technical trail running shoe designed to give cushioning and stability for the ultimate off-road enthusiast. The Lightning Dry liner and water-resistant synthetic/mesh upper keep your feet dry and protected from moisture while the Ortholite foam insert provides breathability and anti-microbial odor protection. The Rock Stop midsole gives protection from sharp rocks and debris while Toe Protect and N-Durance rubber outsole provide reinforcement and protection from the elements. The seamless phantom liner reduces the weight and enhances comfort and fit in combination with the Sure Lace laces. The aggressive lugged outsole gives maximum traction for off-road activities and the gusseted tongue is fully attached to the shoe to keep debris out. There is an Abzorb strobel board the full length of the shoe and the entire midsole is made from Abzorb FL to give maximum shock absorption while maintaining a light weight.  Other features include the N-LOCK external support system and dual desnity collar for added comfort and support.
