Craft Xplor 2 Running Shoes - Men's

Xplor 2 represents the second generation of our most versatile performance running shoe, featuring a re-engineered upper that offers a more secure fit, increased ventilation, and enhanced durability for lasting comfort. Drawing inspiration from the versatility of gravel bikes, this pro-grade shoe offers the perfect hybrid performance, feeling like a road shoe on the pavement and a trail shoe on the dirt. The shoe's new and improved 2-layer engineered mesh upper, designed with body-mapped zones, enhances ventilation and offers a tighter and more secure fit for a stable and comfortable run. What distinguishes the Xplor 2 is its integration of Vittoria’s World Championship gravel racing technology. This innovative design, inspired by the Terreno Dry and Terreno Mix tire patterns, delivers exceptional traction and durability in any terrain, thanks to its fish-scale edges and progressive siping, optimized for maximum speed where the pavement ends. For a smoother and more comfortable experience, the midsole features a softer version of our bouncy and responsive Px Foam™.
