• Vibram® - Vibram® is the world leader in high performance rubber soles, with technologically advanced compounds such as IdroGrip, the toughest formable compound in the Vibram arsenal and specially developed for flat riding in dry and wet conditions; and Megagrip, a high quality viscous compound with much higher strength and only minimal friction loss compared to IdroGrip. All Vibram soles are manufactured with three objectives: to provide the best performance, maximum comfort and quality over time.
  
  
• Carbon fibre - We use carbon composites in the Giro footwear as this allows us to create thinner, lighter and stronger components.
  
  
• X-STATIC™ FIBER - X-Static fibers use natural silver to provide heat-conducting and antibacterial properties to keep feet warm and shoes free of odour causing bacteria and fungi.
