Icebug Pytho6 Mid RB9X Running Shoes Men, Turkis/beige

Pytho has been around for many years – this is the sixth generation! – and it combines features that many runners appreciate; medium drop, torsional rigidity and a spacious, protective toe box. The Putek mesh upper is extremely light and durable, it also keeps the water absorption to a minimum resulting in almost none weight increase in wet conditions. A Mudguard around the entire shoe protects when the trail gets more technical. The midsole adds torsional stability and the right level of support for trail running. The 9 mm drop hits the sweet spot for a shoe targeting light trail running and encourages high speed but also goes well with long recreational runs. The outsole has the traction benchmark RB9X rubber compounbd and a tread pattern made to grip also in muddy conditions.

RB9X
RB9X – Rubber 9 Extreme is Icebug’s latest rubber compound development, and it sets a new standard in providing friction. Lab tests (SATRA) show that RB9X outgrips the competition, but still matches the durability of an asphalt running shoe. In the real world, that means much more reliable traction in wet and slippery conditions and on challenging surfaces like rocks. RB9X is definitely a benefit for extremely demanding runners with high expectations on the shoes traction in mixed and tough terrain. RB9X is a new compound and tests show that Icebug really has succeeded.
