Ali'i 6.0 Running Shoe - Women's

Zoot celebrates the triumphs and tribulations on Ali'i Drive the past 30 Octobers with the special-edition Women's Ali'i 6.0 Running Shoe. Zoot shoes are becoming known for their upper fit, and this major update is no exception, offering the ultimate in a snug, supportive fit that will help propel you through the final leg at Kona―or any run, anywhere. The secret is the aptly-named UltraFit technology, which features stretchy, compressive TekSheen mesh that hugs your foot so securely, you will hardly feel compelled to lace the shoe. Then Zoot really laid it on thick with the 360-degree lockdown of the Dynamic Fit System, which includes a Boa speed lace reel that enables fast T2s and won't require any attention or adjustment once it's set. Because you simply don't have time for laces that come untied or stretch out. In addition, the large tongue pull tab makes it especially easy for fumbling, fatigued fingers to pull the shoe on.

But, the upper is only half of the equation. Underfoot, the miles will fly by with the aid of the ZBound energy-return foam in the midsole, and the CarbonSpan+ shank that limits torsional flexion and helps drive you through you through your stride to toe-off. The use of carbon fiber means that this remarkable performance is delivered without a weight penalty; Zoot also added TriDri drainage ports to the forefoot to ensure that you're not lugging around retained water. Carbon rubber in high-impact zones of the outsole ensures durability. The TT Race Platform makes this shoe ideal for neutral runners looking for a shoe with a moderate 10mm heel-to-toe drop that can be run in every day, but that truly excels when every second counts.
