From Backcountry.com:
"The Merrell Men's Overdrive Gore-Tex XCR Shoes give you waterproof breathable protection plus lateral and medial support on your trail runs. This means less swamp-foot and less fatigue. Merrell's Trailspring Technology places tubes in the inside and outside of the shoe's heel, thus optimizing cushioning and reducing over-pronation on impact. The Gore-Tex construction blocks moisture as you splash through puddles, and the Vibram sole grips loose terrain. The Overdrive Gore-Tex XCR trail shoes' lace locking system makes it easy to tighten up during your runs, and a mesh lining on the inside reduces friction."

"Trail running technology that brings some serious swift, keeping adventure racers centered and efficient to maintain speed over changeable terrain. Proprietary TrailSpring design positions visible tubes bisected by support beams in a full-length TPU plate to inhibit overpronation and cushion heel-strike. Trail Balanced last with integrated arch bridge stabilizes the heel while freeing the forefoot for easy toe off.
