A breathable spacer-mesh upper, extra heel foam and a Y-construction keep you cool and secure from first step to last mile.

About the brand
Hylo Athletics was founded on a straightforward frustration: running shoes are made almost entirely from plastic, and almost none of them get recycled. Hylo builds performance shoes from bio-based and recycled materials instead — supercritical foams grown from plants, natural rubber outsoles, uppers engineered to hit 50% bio-based and recycled content — and refuses to trade away weight or energy return to do it. At Mountain Sports, we love Hylo because it proves the trade-off was never real: a genuinely light, genuinely bouncy daily trainer that happens to ask a lot less of the planet.
