What matters is not the finish line but the start line.
It takes courage.

Dedication.
Sacrifice.
Not to lose or give up anything but to make the journey sacred.
It’s not the race that makes you a warrior.

Genesis - The bar for mountain running has now been set higher
The Genesis running shoe, designed by the S/LAB team, is intended for anyone who likes to run on varied slopes in nature. It combines comfort, safety, durability and unsurpassed grip. The Energy Foam in the midsole provides cushioning and energy return, while the Active Chassis solution in the heel supports the foot, creating a unique combination of comfort and stability, so you don’t have to worry about stepping on sharp rocks or you sprained your ankle. The outsole uses an All-Terrain Contagrip® compound with a unique two-part pattern and 4.5mm studs that create secure grip even on variable technical terrain – designed to grip wet rocks and clear mud on the fly – while Matryx fabric provides excellent protection against tears and abrasions. The end result is a running shoe with the ideal balance of durability, protection and comfort. In addition, 34% of the upper is made from recycled materials, which is 13% of the total weight of the shoe, which in the smaller numbers weighs well under 300 grams.
