Why DSS is Better. It's All in the Springs.


Superior Durability

Traditional mid-sole materials wear out significantly quicker than a compression spring, causing their performance to degrade noticeably over time. DSS springs have been tested for the equivalent of almost 1,000 miles with minimal performance loss.

Consistent Ride

DSS springs require no break in period, and will provide more uniform performance characteristics for a substantially longer period. You'll get exceptional cushioning and dynamic responsiveness from mile one to mile 300 and beyond. And unlike traditional mid-sole materials that firm up in colder temperatures, and soften up in warmer temperatures, DSS performance is unaffected by extreme heat, cold or humidity.

Dynamic Responsiveness

The rate of return of traditional mid-soles is dramatically slower than that of a compression spring, eliminating the ability of the shoe to provide and meaningful level of energy return capability. Tests show that with DSS, up to 90% of impact energy is returned to the runner, increasing efficiency and responsiveness.

Unparalleled Cushioning

DSS springs provide unparalleled cushioning and shock displacement, greatly reducing stress to your feet, back, hips and knees. This reduces fatigue and the occurrence of both short term and long-term overuse injuries, and substantially improves recovery times after long runs.
