Technology

1. New & Improved STICKYGRIP™ Rubber Outsole
   We’ve re-formulated our STICKYGRIP™ rubber for the second generation of the MUDTALON™ Series. The new formula retains the same dependable grip and improves on it, with a 36% increase in wet slip resistance compared to the V1 MUDTALON™ Series. So whether it’s thick sloppy mud, or treacherous wet rock, our new formula STICKYGRIP™ is more dependable than ever.
2. Aggressive 8mm Studs
   The signature of the MUDTALON™ Series is its aggressive 8mm studs. Offering outstanding off-trail grip and confidence to allow you nail steep uphills, descents and the boggiest of bogs! The length of the MUDTALON™ studs allows these mud-slayers to chew through the thickest of mud and come back begging for more.
3. New & Improved POWERFLOW PRO Midsole
   With the next generation of MUDTALON™ shoes, we’ve taken the opportunity to innovate further with the POWERFLOW PRO midsole. This super-lightweight foam provides high levels of cushioning, while still allowing the ground-feel needed for running over uneven, technical terrain. We’ve also made the foam slightly firmer, helping to increase the lifespan of the shoe.
4. META-PLATE Rock Plate
   A flexible META-PLATE rock plate sits between the midsole and the outsole of the MUDTALON™V2. This guards against sharp or hard objects underfoot, while the flexibility of the plate ensures that you can still move your foot naturally as you navigate technical terrain.
5. NATURALFIT™
   Locking in at the heel and midfoot for confidence-boosting control, our footwear widens at the toes, allowing them to splay and perform naturally. This allows you to reconnect with what's underfoot and achieve your full, natural potential. All MUDTALON™ Series footwear comes in a choice of Precision or Wide fit. Go Precision for a snugger, more sock-like fit. Go wide if you have wider feet or prefer more room for your toes on longer runs.

• Re-waterproof periodically, e.g. with Grangers® Footwear Repel Plus.

Size guide — please read before ordering

Inov8 shoes fit small: order 1 full size above your usual US size. Example: usual US 8 → order Inov8 size 9. Not sure of your usual size? Measure your foot length (cm) and use the table.

Width

This model comes in Precision and Wide fit. Measure your foot at its widest point and compare with the table (foot width in cm). If your foot is wider than the Precision value for your size, choose Wide.

How to measure

Stand on a sheet of paper against a wall, in the socks you run in, heel against the wall. Mark the tip of your longest toe and the widest points of your foot, then measure length and width in cm. Measure both feet, use the larger values, and measure late in the day.
