SCOTT Trail Running Shoe RC SUPERTRAC: review

  • Print
IMG 9863 We begin immediately by seeing some numerical data of the Scott Supertrac RC shoe.
It is a trail running shoe weighing 9.6 oz (272 grams) in the US model in size US9, or weighing 8 ounces (230 grams) in the model woman in size US8. The heights of the SCOTT RC SUPERTRAC scraper midsole are 25mm heel / 20mm forefoot.
 
Now consider the top of the RC SUPERTRAC. The open mesh upper with seamless outer layers offers a minimal, yet safe and adequately protective feel, keeping the foot comfortably in place. You can pull the laces only moderately to achieve a great balance between safety and comfort.
The inner sole has a rubbery coating, presumably to minimize slipping of the foot inside the shoe.
 
Let's now analyze the midsole. midsole:
Aerofoam + is an injected midsole material that offers excellent flexibility, durability and rebound. The Supertrac RC is fast and responsive and offers a surprising balance between cushioning, protection and sensitivity to the trail. The cushioning is sufficient to allow even several hours of travel. Even though it is a fast shoe, SCOTT RC SUPERTRAC can also handle 2-3 hour runs. Although the shoe has a narrower support surface than other off-road shoe models, stability is excellent.

 
Excellent the sole of this SCOTT RC SUPERTRAC. When it comes to secure grip, the Supertrac RC Wet Traction Rubber sole is valid on almost any surface. The loops are deep, aggressive and "clinging". It takes a while to get used to it, learning to believe that the dowels will stick to any slope (no matter how steep) on soft, sandy, rocky, wet, muddy soils.
This crazy adherence, it must be admitted, does not allow the shoe to reach long distances without wearing out. This is inevitable when dealing with a shoe that attaches to the ground like a glue!
 
An excellent shoe on difficult terrain, where great adherence and safety are needed. SCOTT RC is very suitable in the race on difficult routes when you want to make the most of the time.
