Nutrail Air

From CrossFit to weightlifting to other high-intensity training, our Nutrail Air trainers for men and women combine the soft-tongue lacing system of our popular Nutrail Cross Sport model with a flexible, high-resistance mesh for enhanced breathability and strength. While the rest of you is sweating, give your toes room to breathe! Available in GRAY or BLACK laces.

HiLite in Black 2

You now have two options when selecting our popular mid top model: The HiLite in Black HLN2 with Power Knit or the original HiLite in Black with SuperFabric.

The HiLite in Black HLN 2 (w/ Power Knit) is lighter and more breathable than it's predecessor, while offering  quick-drying, abrasion-resistant durability. Perfect for outdoor activity in the hot summer temperatures.

• "Love the shoes. I wear them every day." J.J. of Glen Rose, TX

• "Life gets hard, so I had been working a part time job where I was on my feet all evening. I had tried a few different things, but the day I got my SOM shoes, I thrived them. Great stuff. No hamstring tightness no Achilles pain, no back pain. So I kicked around in them a couple days and then tried them on an 11 mile walk. I took my Naots with me in the backpack in case. The SOM shoes performed amazing. Thank you. I will be ordering more.” -R.N. of Simpsonville, SC

• "Easily the most comfortable shoes ever. I've never been to the store, but I appreciate American made products and want to support local businesses. I've had two pairs of SOM shoes and will likely continue to buy them in the future. I love the fact that they can be resoled instead of just throwing away a perfectly suited pair of shoes. My shoes have been so sturdy and high quality, while also being comfortable and good looking... I'll never go back to sweatshop shoes! SOM customer service is also excellent." -I.S.
  

• "So… I bought it to support American manufacturing. I had been a little disappointed when I pulled them out of the box (expecting a fluffier shoe), but that quickly changed. I didn’t even know I needed a shoe like this until I wore it for a week. My feet feel 100% better. They look brand new still after a year too! They’ve also gotten more comfortable over time. I honestly don’t even need laces at this point, because they fit my foot so well."- D.P.
