* Torsional and Flexion Stability are desirable features to assist in protection
from the adverse impact of excessive pronation and to help those individuals
with plantar fasciitis. Lateral stability is also desired to lessen the possibility
of ankle sprains.
Trail shoes also require protective features that limit exposed EVA to prevent
piercing of the sole by sharp branches and to limit stone bruises. Traction
elements are also important with the sole designed to enhance braking and limit
lateral slipping.
