The North Face and Kailas Incorporate PerformFit™ Wrap Technology

The North Face and Kailas are the latest brands to incorporate the BOA® PerformFit™ Wrap into their trail running footwear, joining the ranks of Speedland, La Sportiva, and Scarpa. This cutting-edge technology, developed in the BOA® Performance Fit Lab, is scientifically proven to enhance speed, stability, and energy efficiency on rugged terrain. The BOA® PerformFit™ Wrap delivers a precision fit by conforming to the midfoot, offering superior heel lock, midsole connection, and forefoot freedom, all crucial for peak trail performance.

In their latest white paper, BOA® demonstrated that athletes using the PerformFit™ Wrap achieved up to 1.5% faster speeds, experienced 7% improved ankle stability, and executed more efficient energy transfer during explosive direction changes. The North Face Summit Offtrail BOA® and Kailas Fuga Du Dual BOA® models feature the BOA® PerformFit™ Wrap innovation, delivering precise micro-adjustability to enhance fit and performance during long-distance and technical runs.

THE NORTH FACE SUMMIT OFFTRAIL BOA®



As part of the high-performance, athlete-influenced Summit Series, The North Face launches the Offtrail TR BOA® to provide added protection for adventures across challenging terrain.

The Offtrail TR BOA® utilizes the BOA® Fit System to deliver a micro-adjustable, precision fit engineered to perform in all conditions. The BOA® Fit System activates a shrouded, wrapped upper configuration to offer the added benefit of increased speed and improved ankle stability.

The Offtrail TR BOA® also features an integrated stretch gaiter to help keep out debris, a MATRYX over-lasted forefoot with Kevlar reinforcements, and a high-tenacity ripstop rear quarter. High-rebound EVA midsole offers 18 mm of comfortable cushioning at the heel and 12 mm at the forefoot for precision in technical off-trail conditions. The outsole leverages Surface-CTRL with 7mm lugs and an internal SKYCORE Rock Guard for added protection under the forefoot.

KAILAS FUGA DU DUAL BOA®



Kailas launches the FUGA DU Dual BOA®, bringing the micro-adjustable BOA® Fit System and innovative BOA® PerformFit™ Wrap upper configuration into another premier trail running shoe. The BOA® PerformFit™ Wrap was designed and engineered in the BOA® Performance Fit Lab to improve stability and control, power transfer, and energy efficiency.

The Kailas Fuga Du Dual BOA® takes fit to the next level, providing trail runners independent adjustments in the mid-foot/ankle and forefoot zones for a customized fit that accommodates foot swelling and changes in trail terrain. An excellent choice for medium to long-distance races, runners can confidently tackle terrain with impressive energy return from a dual-density midsole with PEBAX, multi-directional triangle lugs for powerful grip on uphills, washboard-like lugs to prevent slipping on downhills, and a Vibram Megagrip outsole for grip in wet conditions. The model features Kailas’s 4-point gaiter holder system for seamless, firm attachment.
