Hl deck Grip profile
The razor-cut rubber sole has plenty of grooves, creating a particularly grippy shoe, although a little heavier than others on test. This design was joint top in the dry grip test and joint first in wet/dry average. The black material on the upper is rubberised and gives good protection around the toebox, but doesn’t allow the foot to breathe – without getting the shoes wet they were left with a salt stain from sweat in the toe. Despite drainage holes, water can only really escape through the mesh material.
