Finding the compromise between the road model and the road model trail, we reimagined the Challenger 7 GTX from scratch. Combining the simplified mesh upper with the new, soft one foam, we increased the height of the sole for a more comfortable feel of softness and added GORE-TEX INVISIBLE FIT technology with partially recycled material for greater protection from bad weather. Inspired by gravel tires, we created a tank with smaller and less spaced elements in the center and bigger and more aggressive along the perimeter, to improve the traction on uneven terrain.
