A high mileage neutral trainer built to last, loaded with eco and tech credentials.
For the Tarkine Goshawk V2, we've updated the midsole to create a more resilient foam that both compresses and rebounds, producing excellent energy return with a soft, smooth ride. This is one of the most advanced foams available on the market. The heel has been reinforced for increased durability. Plus there are some great new colour options to add to your rotation. The comfy upper fabric is made from recycled plastic bottles as in the previous model.
Benefits
- Proprietary midsole 'Future Foam V2' cushioning. We've made it softer, and even more durable, with increased energy return.
