Saucony Progrid Stabil CS 2 womens
The Stabil CS 2 is a new take on Motion Control shoes…. Whereas the previous Stabil MC 5 was a mid-range, traditional (albeit fairly light and flexible) Motion Control Shoe, the Stabil CS is a top-end shoe which feels and performs as such.
It's on a new high-volume, straight last, which has a very broad base to provide stability. It's also gives a great broad fit, ensuring plenty of space for even the widest of feet.
The CS zone is a dual-density structure which is full length, but only extends halfway up the midsole. The enables the shoe to give maximum stability, but by having the flex grooves cut into this zone it retains flexibility.
Height: Heel (30mm), Forefoot (18mm)
The ProGrid Stabil CS 2 is a maximum feature, maximum motion control shoe designed for daily training and high mileage. It is built with a semi-straight shape.
