Description

Light, springy and built for pace. The rockered sole rolls you smoothly from landing to toe-off, so it's easier to pick up speed and hold it. The carbon plate in the midsole gives a stable, direct feel on uneven paths.

At its best in races on runnable trails. Think of a trail race in the Ardennes, an ultra on wide mountain paths or a fast long run on the Veluwe. In the second half of a long race you feel the difference: the cushioning stays lively and your legs feel less heavy.

Not sure? Look at terrain and pace. On steep, technical descents and rocky paths a lower, more stable shoe feels more secure, and if you mostly run easy, you won't get much out of its fast character. The fit is narrow in the forefoot, so if you have wide feet, try it on first.

A fast race shoe for trail runners who want to push the pace.

Why Arc'teryx?

When it starts raining halfway through a trail or the wind picks up on the col, you immediately notice whether your clothing works. Not a jacket you'd rather take off after an hour, but something you can rely on, whatever the weather does. That's exactly why we carry Arc'teryx at Trail.NL.

Arc'teryx is a Canadian brand from Vancouver known for technical outdoor apparel. It's a premium brand: the clothing is light, comfortable and made for hours on the move, from long steady runs to ultras in the mountains. You pay a bit more, but you get quality you'll use for years.

For us, Arc'teryx is above all a reliable choice for anyone heading seriously into the mountains: well thought out, carefully finished and made to last.

Frequently asked questions

Can I use my own insole?

Yes, the insole is removable, so you can replace it with your own (orthotic) insole. Keep in mind that thickness and shape can change the volume in the shoe.

Does the Sylan 2 have a carbon plate?

Yes, there's a carbon plate in the midsole. It adds stability and a direct toe-off on runnable trails.

How does it fit?

Snug around the midfoot and fairly narrow up front. If you have wide feet, try it on in the store first.

What's the difference with the Norvan LD 4?

The Sylan 2 is lighter and faster, with a carbon plate and a rockered sole for racing. The Norvan LD 4 is roomier and focused on comfort on long, easy trail days.
