How do I...?
NEW GEAR
High summer = high time for new fit kit
Low-stack speedsters
HOKA’s latest release, the Zinal, has a smaller midsole than normally associated with the brand, giving you a racing trail shoe that feels low, responsive and puts you in touch with the ground. The midsole is still a Profly construction, so it feels supple, but there’s less of it. The minimalist upper is a soft, thin mesh made from recycled yarn, there’s ample room for toe splay, extra padding round the heel and the toe box protects well. As a lightweight trail shoe with a Vibram outsole, this shoe feels nimble. It’s made for summer trail running. £140, hokaoneone.eu
