Synthetic fabrics are textiles made from synthetic fibers such as nylon and polyester.

Athletic SS10

MBT provides several different outsole profiles, each adapted to the use of the footwear. The rubber outsoles are made out of 20 different compounds and provide a perfect balance between grip and durability.

The Dual Board Shank in the midsole uses Thermoplastic polyurethane (TPU) in the heel and midfoot area. Nylon mixed with glass fibers are used in the forefoot area. This dual density construction provides added comfort and stability.

The Masai Sensor consists of a soft Polyurethane (PU). The sensor produces a pleasant feeling, reminiscent of walking on natural, uneven ground. The softness is important to create the specific functionality (sink-in movement) of the MBT sole.

Linings

• The 3D Mesh lining regulates the climate inside the MBT in a natural way by combining air circulation and moisture management. It keeps the foot comfortably dry. The basis of DRY&COOL is the combination of high-grade mesh lining with a functional sockliner.
• GORE-TEX membrane is the heart of GORE-TEX® footwear. It is completely waterproof but permeable for water vapor.

Sockliner

• DRY&COOL - Upper part is a single-layer mesh, a breathable and open woven fabric. Lower part is foam with an open cell structure which allows breathability, assists moisture management, is quick-drying and antimicrobial.
• The antimicrobial split leather insole creates a soft and dry feeling when walking barefoot.
• Full grain leather sockliner uses selected full grain leather lining for added comfort.
