Amiel S-Strike is our take on a timeless 90s running silhouette. It is fitted with lightweight off-black cordura uppers with black cracked leather side panels and apron panels. It is also equipped with a reflective 3M S-Strike identifier for an added detail. The use of the water resistant Cordura makes this our hardest wearing Amiel S-Strike to date. The AMIEL S-STRIKE runner features: Lightweight uppers with a multi-part composite sole unit. New Geo-Merged upper treatment. Uppers featuring Cordura fabric, cracked black leather apron and side panels, plush tongue and collar padding for comfort and support. High-abrasion proof laces for performance and durability. Sports eyelet. Cushioned performance low-density 'cupped' sports-foam footbed. Complex 3-part lightweight engineered sole: Low-density cushioned EVA midsole Cleated runner 'island' bottom sole. TPU heel support for stability. This silhouette has undergone our Geo-Merged treatment, creating a unique look and feel by visually softening the uppers. This process, using vesicular volcanic rocks, creates depth as natural and technical materials react differently, gently weathering bold colours and evening out contrasts for subtly unique characteristics. This is a natural process using no water, no harmful chemicals or manual finishing to fake a 'vintage' or 'worn' look. Geo-Merged is authentic. Under foot, the sole remains untouched from Geo-Merged process to uphold a balanced look. Our runner sole is constructed with a complex 3-part lightweight engineered sole featuring low-density cushioned EVA midsole, cleated runner 'island' bottom sole and an S-Strike TPU heel support for stability. This construction provides a comfortable and lightweight runner for everyday use. Note: If you typically wear a half size (e.g., 42.5), please be aware that this style is crafted from natural leather, which may feel tight initially. With wear, the material will naturally stretch and mold comfortably to your foot. For the best fit, we recommend sizing up to the next full size if you're between sizes.
