OOFOS' OOmy Stride is a new recovery footwear design for men and women with a comfortable style and a flexible design. This footwear innovation features an extended and rounded heel for a better biomechanical absorption area when taking longer strides, and an integrated support cradle that raises outside the footbed to keep feet centered over the platform when walking. And with four-way stretch mesh forefoot, OOmy Stride allows heat and moisture to be vented for enhanced comfort.
With OOfoam technology and a patented footbed design, pairs of OOFOS are proven to absorb 37% more impact than traditional foam and reduce up to 47% of energy exertion on the ankles. These combined technologies additionally reduce load rates by up to 88%, decrease compressive stresses and help enhance mobility and gait patterns so that active individuals can recover faster.
