Helly Hansen Stride HTXP Pioneers a New Path for Trail Runners

OSLO, NORWAY (Spring 2011) -- Trail running thrills the body but punishes the feet with an onslaught of sharp rocks and roots, uneven terrain and wet or muddy conditions. The all-new Helly Hansen Stride HTXP neutralizes nature’s folly with an arsenal of features that protect and cushion the feet during extended runs in any off-road environment.

Designed to be the ultimate trail running shoe for cold, wet and stormy conditions, the Stride HTXP boasts an extremely supportive upper made with tough Helly Tech® XP waterproof and highly breathable materials for keeping the feet dry and perfectly tempered. A medial support under the arch cradles the foot while providing stability, and C-Zone cushioning in the heel and forefoot absorb shock and assist with rebound respectively.
