Scarpa Men’s Spark Trail Running Shoes have already won many awards for their combination of foot protection, traction, comfort and lightness in what Scarpa call a mountain minimalist package.

The minimalist reference comes from the incorporation of an ultra-light polyester mesh upper which keeps the weight significantly lower and also provides enhanced ventilation.

The hardest-working part of the Scarpa Men’s Spark Trail Running Shoes is the Speedlite sole unit which combines an EVA midsole with a 6-mm drop that creates a natural movement from heel strike to take off. This increases the shoes’ shock absorption and also helps to reduce foot fatigue.

An additional EVA layer has been added across the forefoot to reduce stretching so underfoot support will not reduce with time. The outsole features a dedicated braking zone and Helix lugs which provide a multi-directional grip.

Scarpa Men’s Spark Trail Running Shoes are therefore well equipped to take you over some rough terrain but they are also a great choice to use when pounding out the miles on city streets.
