Frequently asked questions
Is the Tecton X 3 a neutral shoe?
Yes. The Tecton X 3 is a neutral, high-cushion trail shoe with a 5mm heel-to-toe drop.
Who is the Tecton X 3 best for?
Neutral runners who want a shoe for racing and fast efforts off road. It runs on a dual PEBA midsole, a 40 mm heel stack, a carbon plate and a 5 mm drop. The stack gives protection underfoot on rocky and uneven ground.
How does the Tecton X 3 fit?
True to size for most runners, in a standard (D/B) medium width. If between sizes or wider-footed, consider a half size up.
What are the key specs of the Tecton X 3?
Heel-to-toe drop 5mm; stack 40/35mm; weight about 8.6oz (244g); high cushion; neutral support.
What surface is the Tecton X 3 best for?
Primarily trail, suited to racing and fast efforts off road.
Why does the Tecton X 3 have two separate carbon plates?
Independent parallel plates let each side of the foot flex on its own, so the shoe stays propulsive on uneven trail instead of fighting the ground the way a single stiff plate would.
