Women's Merrell Nova 2 Starry Trail Running Shoes, Sz10

Designed for Trail Running: The Antora 2 is built for on-trail use, offering features like a rock plate for protection and a Vibram® TC5+ rubber outsole for traction on various terrains. Comfort and Support: They are designed with sneaker-like comfort, including a medial post for light pronation relief and external rear sling for heel stability. Cushioning: The shoes feature forefoot and heel cushioning pods to dampen impact, along with an EVA foam midsole for comfortable, lightweight cushioning. Potential Waterproofing: Some versions, like the Antora 2 GTX, incorporate GORE-TEX for waterproofing, sealing out water while allowing moisture to escape. Versatility: While primarily for trails, they can also perform well on paths and roads, though they may struggle in heavy mud.
