Not sure which hylo trainer is the one for you? You’re in the right place. 

The RUN and the LIGHT both share our impact values. hylo's entire footwear range is centred around the use of renewable materials - reducing our reliance on fossil fuels. The range is recyclable - powered by hyloop, our more life platform. It is our commitment to ensure every product is vegan with the entire footwear range lab-certified vegan by Eurofins.

For the hylo RUN, we took the learnings from our community and their feedback about the hylo LIGHT to create a performance running shoe that is comfortable, cushioned and responsive.

The hylo LIGHT is still an OG favourite at hylo and for our Champions of Tomorrow too but it is now clearly defined by the core benefits that made it loved from the very start. We can confirm it's seriously comfortable.

WHAT THEY'RE BUILT FOR

The RUN

Built for short to middle distance road running. The hylo RUN’s bio-based EVA and Pebax®  midsole provides an ultra-cushioned and responsive ride to match your energy on short to middle distances. Its midsole is nitro-infused at pellet level to create the highest propulsion and lowest density when hitting the ground and bouncing back.

The LIGHT

Running-inspired, the hylo LIGHT uses the latest engineering and material innovation to achieve all day comfort for the everyday athlete. It’s breathable, light, and seriously comfortable.
