Nakoa GTX Trail Running Shoe - Men's

Elevate your trail game to the next level in the Scott Men's Nakoa GTX Trail Running Shoe. Made with Scott's eRide architecture and the lightest and most flexible Gore-Tex membrane, the Nakoa gives your foot guaranteed waterproof protection while exploiting your energy input. Rugged lugs go in both directions to give you great ground grip both up and down hills. Hurtle through the hills knowing your feet are protected from wet, roots, and all sorts of other pernicious trail hazards.

Closed mesh puts up a pretty face while hiding the GoreTex membrane beneath. TPU overlays rest atop the mesh for a spit of support when you tighten the race-lace system with a single tug. The Gore-Tex membrane means you careen through creeks without fear that the water will wreck your foot or that sweat will stick around. The training insole cushions your off-road footstrikes without letting softness get in the way of support.

The extended eRide platform does double duty. First, this Scott-specific architecture economizes your stride by using the energy of impact to move your foot forward through your stride a bit faster than if left to your own devices. Second, by extending the platform, the Nakoa offers more ground contact and more stability, particularly evident when galloping down a steep descent. Rubber on the bottom blends flex lines and multi-directional lugs for a flexible yet grippy sole. Tricky terrain won't trouble the Nakoa, letting you take to technical trails with the greatest of ease.
