Product Description
Trail Control Kit, save 20%
UP TO 27% MORE TRAIL CONTACT
Inspired by spider webs, the lugs on the SpinWeave® outsole flex depending on the terrain. Independent research shows this increases ground contact by up to 27% vs. competitors, maximizing the unrivaled traction of Vibram® MegaGrip rubber.
SKIN-TO-TRAIL CONNECTION
TerraSkin® is a shoe-and-sock system built on 30 years of X-Bionic next-to-skin expertise. The sock works with the shoe to boost airflow through aligned ventilation, while targeted GripYarns connect with the sockliner to improve hold.
VERTICAL CUSHIONING, LATERAL STABILITY
The patented SpeedFrame® construction lets the soft foam core cushion vertically on landing while stabilizing the foot horizontally. It's like mountain bike suspension for your feet, giving you cushioning and precise control on uneven ground.

Frequently Asked Questions
What does the carbon plate in the TerraSkin® X00/C do for me?
What does the carbon plate in the TerraSkin® X00/C do for me?
The Power-Lite Carbon plate runs through the midsole and stiffens the platform under your forefoot. You get an energy return on every push-off that long technical trails normally drain from your legs. Combined with the SpeedFrame® chassis, the carbon stays stable on rocks and roots instead of feeling skittish like a road super-shoe on rough ground. In short: carbon energy without losing trail control.
How does the X00/C fit: should I size up?
How does the X00/C fit: should I size up?
The X00/C runs true to size for most runners, and the SkinKnit® upper adapts to the shape of your foot. If you have a wider forefoot, or you plan to run long with toe-spread on descents, take a half-size up. Toe-box volume is the most common reason buyers move up one half-size on technical trail shoes, the rest of the lockdown is delivered by the SkinKnit® sock-shoe system, not by squeezing your foot.
What kind of trails and distances is the X00/C built for?
What kind of trails and distances is the X00/C built for?
The X00/C is the racing and high-output training shoe in the TerraSkin® range. It is built for technical and varied terrain, rocks, roots, mud, wet ground, at marathon distance and faster training paces. Cushioning is set at 3/5 to keep the platform responsive under the carbon plate. For ultra-distance comfort, the X03 is the better choice. For minimum stack and pure speed on dry runnable trails, the X02 is the lighter option.
Do I need to wear socks with the X00/C, or is the sock-shoe system enough?
Do I need to wear socks with the X00/C, or is the sock-shoe system enough?
You can run the X00/C with or without socks. The SkinKnit® upper is engineered as a sock-shoe system: GripFix yarns anchor your foot to the footbed, aligned ventilation channels move moisture, and the seamless knit prevents the hot spots that cause blisters. Most runners wear a thin performance sock for ultra distances. For shorter races, many run without, the system is designed to work both ways.
How does the SpinWeave® outsole grip in mud and on wet rock?
How does the SpinWeave® outsole grip in mud and on wet rock?
The SpinWeave® outsole pairs a spiderweb-inspired adaptive lug pattern with Vibram® MegaGrip rubber. The lugs dynamically adapt to uneven ground, which means more rubber contact with the surface, on wet rock, in mud, and on loose descents. The result for you: confident foot placement on the downhill, fewer slips on technical sections, and the freedom to run faster on the parts where most shoes ask you to brake.
