Description

The Contour XCR is a trail shoe made by Asolo. It has an average rating of 5 stars (out of 5), based on 2 user reviews.

Manufacturer's Description:
The Contour XCR is part of Asolo’s Enduro line of versatile, multi-functional shoes. The Dynamic Asosorb system is a gender- and weight-specific technology that utilizes three materials with different densities to increase shock absorption while improving one’s overall stance. Dynamic Asosorb assures the correct torsional rigidity and proper flex while protecting the underfoot from sharp objects.

The Contour’s self-cleaning low profile rubber outsole maximizes sensitivity on all types of terrain. Its extremely lightweight molded EVA midsole produces correct support on all kinds of surfaces. In addition, the sides of the heel are strengthened with rubber elements that increase midsole control and response.

"I own an assortment of Salomon trail runners/hikers, Keens, Asolo, Keen and Vasque backpacking boots. I've had these Asolo Contour GTX's for two days and had to force myself to take them off for bed.

I slid a set of Spenco polysorb dayhiker insoles in and fits like they were designed for them."

Men's Contour XCR
Reviewed by .ghost., Aug 28, 2009

"I've had these shoes for over one year now, and they have accompanied me on many miles, whether it be over backcountry or through urban jungle. Mostly they have been used for day hikes with a good amount of elevation change (Northern CA/Sierras).

They are sturdy, waterproof, and not too heavy."
