Épisode 1294 : Aujourd'hui, on plonge dans le monde du outdoor, mais en s'attardant sur une marque que vous portez sans le savoir.Une marque invisible. Quasi jamais taguée. Quasi jamais citée. Et pourtant omniprésente.Cette marque, c'est Vibram. Et ce qu'on va voir aujourd'hui, c'est comment on devient une marque culte tout en restant en retrait.Vibram : la marque que tout le monde porte sans le savoirVibram, c'est ce logo jaune sous la semelle de vos chaussures de rando. Ou peut-être celles de vos sneakers préférées si vous êtes un peu fashionista.La marque est italienne est est née en 1937. Son créneau : les semelles haute performance. Depuis presque 90 ans, elle équipe les chaussures les plus techniques du marché.Son business il est résolument B2B. Ses clients ce sont les marques de chaussures elles-même.Vibram n'est pas une marque de chaussures. C'est une marque ingrédient.Marque ingrédient : le branding de l'ombreOn parle de « marque ingrédient » quand une marque B2B se glisse dans un produit sans en être la tête d'affiche.Comme Gore-Tex pour les vestes. Comme Intel pour les ordis. Vibram, c'est ça : un composant ultra technique, devenu un standard dans son industrie. Un vrai label de qualité.Vibram, c'est un cas fascinant de ce qu'on appelle une marque ingrédient.Dans le marketing classique, une marque, c'est un logo, une promesse, une voix forte.C'est de l'awareness. C'est du bruit.Mais dans l'univers des marques ingrédient, c'est tout l'inverse.On parle de « marque ingrédient » quand une marque B2B se glisse dans un produit sans en être la tête d'affiche.Comme Gore-Tex pour les vestes. Comme Intel pour les ordis. Le paradoxe Vibram : ultra technique, ultra hypeCe qui est fou avec Vibram, c'est son positionnement. On est sur du B2B pur. Ils ne vendent pas aux particuliers. Et pourtant, toutes les marques cool veulent bosser avec eux.Voici Quelques exemples : Salomon ACS Pro Advanced : une paire à 220€, semelle Vibram.Hoka x Bodega : collab stylée, semelle Vibram.New Balance Tokyo Design Studio : encore du Vibram.Our Legacy, Asics, Moncler, Merrell... toutes utilisent Vibram.Vibram, c'est le Graal.Une stratégie de branding par capillaritéCe qui rend Vibram culte, c'est son approche : aucune communication directe ou presque.Ils ne font pas de pubs. Vibram n'a pas besoin de créer sa propre hype. Ce sont les marques qui viennent chercher du prestige en bossant avec eux.Sur Instagram, Vibram compte 250k abonnés. Un carton. Parce que ce sont les marques partenaires qui font le boulot de visibilité.Vibram capitalise à fond sur le contenu généré par d'autres.C'est du branding par capillarité.

NORDA TRAIL RUNNING: Cuatro zapatillas trail running de lujo, para ricos y profesionales. Análisis por Mayayo. Norda es una marca canadiense, nacida en Montreal, para zapatillas trail running y montaña nacida tras la pandemia que buscaba aunar la pasión por las carreras de montaña de los hermanos Willa and Nick Martire, quienes llevaban más de 20 años desarrollando zapatillas para marcas locales como Steve Madden y Aldo. Su trayectoria comenzó en febrero de 2020 en la feria MICAM de Milán donde descubrieron Dyneema, una fibra ultraligera y de alta resistencia, vital en la escalada moderna. Este descubrimiento impulsó el desarrollo de su propia marca, enfocada a ofrecer soluciones diferentes para avanzar en las carreras de montaña, siempre de la mano de los mejores especialistas en componentes. Y hacerlo aplicando precios muy altos, como ya hace con éxito su compatriota Arcteryx para el montañismo en general. En julio de 2021, lanzaron su primer producto, la Norda 001, una zapatilla ultra trail, con empeines sin costuras fabricados con fibras Dyneema sostenibles de origen biológico y suelas Vibram resistentes. Desde entonces, la marca ha ampliado su línea de productos y ahora está disponible en aproximadamente 150 tiendas en todo el mundo. Desde el principio apostaron a tope por Vibram como socio, aplicando tanto suelas Megagrip Litebase como amortiguación Vibram SLE en sus tres primeros modelos. A la vez aplicaban soluciones del todo originales en la cubierta y cordonaje, basados ambos en Bio-Dyneema, la última versión de la legendaria fibra de máxima resistencia nacida en 1990 para cuerdas escalada con hasta 15 veces la resistencia del acero gramo por gramo. La panorámica de sus tres primeros modelos entre 2021-2024 era un desarrollo de lo más lógico: Norda 001 como zapatilla ultra trail Norda 002 para carreras de montaña cortas y medias Norda 003 como zapatilla de montaña máxima versatilidad, sin cordones. Como veis, en la 003 fueron un  paso más allá, renunciando incluso a los cordones, por lo que la elegimos para explicaros tanto la solución empleada como la filosofía de una marca que busca ser diferente...y hacernos pagar por ello, pues baratas no son. Aquí análisis de su NORDA 003 SIN CORDONES como  testigo de su foco innovador.Este 2025 han dado un paso más adelante con la NORDA 005 que sube precio hasta 305€ a cambio de varias innovaciones llamativas Estrena la nueva suela Vibram Megagrip Elite con tacos 4mm así como una doble entresuela Arnitel 100% para un peso pluma de 214gr hombre y 174 mujer. Sube la altura al suelo hasta 21.5mm-28,5mm manteniendo la sólida cubierta y cordonajes de la casa con Bio-Dyneema. ¿Y la Norda 004? No me he olvidado, conste. Corresponde a un proyecto diferente del que aun no podemos compartir nada en público, más allá de que es un desarrollo para recuperar post-carrera. Paciencia.-. Vamos con el análisis del catálogo por Mayayo. #carrerasdemontaña #radiotrail

RUNNEA Talks se sumerge en los lanzamientos más esperados de 2025: innovación, tendencias y zapatillas que marcarán el año El 2025 ha arrancado con un aluvión de novedades en el mundo del running. -Placas de carbono más extremas, zapatillas de trail diseñadas con una mentalidad más alpina y un giro hacia el maximalismo en la amortiguación. Para analizar todo esto, en RUNNEA Talks, Gorka Cabañas y Lionel Nattes han desgranado los modelos más esperados del año, con una mesa de estudio repleta de zapatillas que marcarán el ritmo de los próximos meses. Nike, Puma, New Balance, Mizuno, Brooks… todas las grandes marcas han movido ficha. Y lo que se viene promete cambiar muchas cosas. ¿Qué marcará tendencia en 2025? Maximalismo, carbono y zapatillas más técnicas El arranque del podcast dejó clara una tendencia: el running en 2025 sigue evolucionando en dos direcciones. Por un lado, las marcas están optimizando su gama de productos, reduciendo opciones y segmentando mejor su catálogo. Por otro, hay una apuesta clara por modelos con más amortiguación, pero con un ajuste cada vez más técnico. Nike ha decidido simplificar su línea de zapatillas de entrenamiento, dejando a Pegasus como la zapatilla versátil de entrenamiento diario y otorgándole a la Nike Vomero 18 el rol de máxima amortiguación. "No sé yo si este año hablaremos de la Invincible", apuntaba Gorka. "Vomero parece ser la gran apuesta de Nike para quienes buscan confort en largas distancias". En cuanto a New Balance, el gran protagonista ha sido el Fresh Foam X Hierro 9, una zapatilla de trail completamente renovada que rompe con el pasado híbrido de la saga. "New Balance ha pasado de tener una zapatilla de trail polivalente a una que realmente puede competir con los modelos más técnicos de Hoka o Salomon", comentaba Lionel. "El cambio en el equipo de desarrollo de trail en Europa ha sido clave en esta evolución". Pero si hay un terreno donde la innovación sigue sorprendiendo es en las zapatillas con placa de carbono. Puma ha sacudido el mercado con su modelo más radical hasta la fecha: la Puma Fast-RB Nitro Elite LD, una zapatilla que rompe completamente con todo lo visto hasta ahora, incorporando una triple placa de carbono y un diseño que desafía cualquier lógica. "Es una locura, parece sacada de un laboratorio de la NASA", señalaba Gorka. "No sé si es brillante o un experimento que se nos ha ido de las manos, pero hay que probarla". Las zapatillas que dominarán el asfalto: New Balance, Brooks y Mizuno se apuntan a la versatilidad Entre tanto avance tecnológico, también hubo espacio en el podcast para hablar de las zapatillas de entrenamiento diario, esas que sirven tanto para rodajes suaves como para carreras ocasionales. Aquí New Balance ha dado en el clavo con la FuelCell Rebel, una zapatilla que ha ganado adeptos en todo el mundo gracias a su equilibrio entre ligereza y amortiguación. "Es una de las zapatillas más buscadas en RUNNEA", apuntó Lionel. "La gente la usa para entrenar, para competir, incluso para vestir. New Balance lo ha hecho tan bien que va a ser difícil mejorarla". También se repasaron modelos como la Mizuno Skyrise 6, un referente en comodidad para corredores de todos los niveles, y la Brooks Hyperion Elite PB 4, una zapatilla que está redefiniendo lo que entendemos por un modelo de competición. "El upper parece un encaje, pero no os dejéis engañar, es una bestia en asfalto", señalaba Gorka. Trail running: New Balance y su apuesta por el terreno técnico El trail running también tuvo su momento en el episodio de RUNNEA Talks. La gran estrella ha sido la New Balance Fresh Foam X Hierro 9, un modelo con suela Vibram mucho más agresiva y una estructura reforzada para terrenos alpinos. "New Balance ha cambiado el enfoque de esta zapatilla", explicó Lionel. "Antes la Hierro estaba en tierra de nadie, no era ni muy técnica ni muy rodadora. Ahora han decidido ir a por todas y competir directamente con modelos todo terreno de marcas como Hoka o Salomon". También se habló de la importancia de la adaptación de las marcas al tipo de trail que se corre en Europa. "Estados Unidos tiene un trail más pistero, pero en Europa buscamos agarre, estabilidad y protección", apuntó Gorka. "Por eso, ver cómo New Balance ha adaptado su desarrollo a nuestro mercado es un movimiento inteligente". La Hierro 9 tendrá su presentación oficial en el Maratón del Mont Blanc. "Es un movimiento estratégico claro: si te quieres posicionar en trail, tienes que estar en los grandes escenarios", afirmó Lionel. RUNNEA Talks y la previa de una gran temporada de running El primer video podcast de RUNNEA Talks de 2025 ha servido para hacer un repaso exhaustivo de lo que se viene en el mundo del running. Si algo ha quedado claro es que la innovación sigue marcando el paso, con tendencias cada vez más definidas: ✔ Nike se centra en Vomero como su zapatilla de máxima amortiguación, dejando en el aire el futuro de la Invincible ✔ Puma se atreve con la Fast-RB Nitro Elite LD, un modelo que lleva la tecnología de carbono al límite ✔ New Balance renueva por completo la Hierro 9 y se posiciona en el trail técnico ✔ Brooks sorprende con la Hyperion Elite PB 4, un modelo de competición con un upper nunca visto ✔ La Rebel sigue siendo la zapatilla versátil por excelencia, con una comunidad de corredores que la adoran Si quieres escuchar el episodio completo y descubrir todos los secretos de los modelos más esperados del año, ya puedes hacerlo en todas las plataformas de podcast. RUNNEA Talks arranca 2025 con fuerza. Y esto es solo el principio.

In this episode of the Happy Cast, hosts Stephanie Leake, Dylan Rueff, and Andrew Marvin sit down with ultra runner Steph Smith, who has taken the trail-running world by storm—by running 100-mile races in Crocs. From her early days as a marathoner to her first ultra, Steph shares how she discovered her love for endurance racing and why traditional running shoes never quite worked for her. After experimenting with barefoot running and minimalist sandals, she made the switch to Crocs and has never looked back.We dive into the mechanics of running in Crocs, the modifications she's made (including adding rugged Vibram soles), and how they compare to traditional running shoes. Steph also shares her experiences at races like the Badger 100, Midwest States 100, and Tuscobia Winter Ultra, where she's tested the limits of both herself and her unconventional footwear. Plus, we discuss the ultrarunning community, the importance of race traditions, and the mental strength it takes to keep going—whether you're running in Crocs or not.Beyond the gear, Steph talks about the camaraderie that keeps her coming back to the same races year after year. She shares stories of bonding with strangers on the trail, the unique challenges of winter ultras, and the magic of smaller looped races where every runner, fast or slow, becomes part of a shared experience. We also touch on the problem-solving mindset that ultrarunners develop—whether it's troubleshooting blisters, adjusting nutrition, or deciding to run in something completely unexpected.Be sure to subscribe to the podcast wherever you listen, and we always appreciate you leaving a good rate and review.

This move has sparked significant discussion among outdoor specialty retailers, as it raises concerns about the impact of exclusivity on independent shops and the overall dynamics in the outdoor retail market. Wes joins Colin, outdoor industry insider Eoin Comerford, and Producer Dave to share his perspective on this move by Altra.

Topics and links that Zach talked about this episode Sponsor:GoRafting.com Answer Questions Mechanical Advantage Some of the Questions that Zach covered in the Q&A section of this episode Topic: Cat Flip Lines I'm interested in a pair of cataraft flip lines. I have a 14ft wave destroyer and there is 90 inches between the internal front and back D-rings. I do not see 90 inches on your size chart. Any chance you will have something that will work on your River Hardware website? Topic: Shoes Just listened to your latest podcast on river shoes. Take a look at the Korkers Devil's Canyon (Portland, OR). They are flexible and have a BOA lacing system. Best part, they have interchangeable soles depending on your substrate. Wading boots have used felt soles for decades; they are All about surface area. Felt soles with metal studs, and you're an all-star on slick rocks (terrible for boats, though). If you need to hike to put it in, use the Vibram rubber lug soles, then switch to felt soles. They make some ugly shoes and sandals too.

To be honest I didn't think I'd ever get Brian the Bootmaker on this show—he doesn't do many interviews at all, and for whatever reason I was, quite frankly, kind of afraid to ask him. Which in hindsight is insane because he's about as sweet and genuine and fantastic to talk to as people come. Working out of the central Los Angeles workshop he first wandered into in high school while looking for thread to customize some sneakers, Brian IS Role Club, hand-making some of the world's most distinctive and in-demand custom boots alongside his beloved teacher Nacho for going on a decade and a half. One of the earliest stories I posted on Stitchdown.com was about a YouTube video of Brian resoling an Alden Indy Boot with a Vibram mini ripple sole. Some said it was sacrilege! But all of Brian's videos, and work, reflect him so well. He's an innovator despite relying on techniques hundreds of years old, a calm in the content storm, a still young man who loves nothing more than really old boots. And one of the most thoughtful people I've ever chatted with. Also he just might be Mister Rogers. Come to Stitchdown's Boot Camp, the world's fair of shoes and boots and leather and more in Brooklyn this Oct 12-13, 2024.https://www.stitchdownbootcamp.com/Support the Shoecast and join the most interesting shoe-and-boot-loving community on the internet with a Stitchdown Premium membershiphttps://www.stitchdown.com/join-stitchdown-premium/

Robert Fliri, an Italian designer and innovator in footwear design, shares his journey of reconnecting with nature and developing the concept of natural footwear. He grew up in the mountains, surrounded by nature, and was always drawn to technology and mechanical engineering. However, he felt a disconnect when he entered the world of design and decided to create a footwear prototype that would allow him to feel the ground like he was barefoot but with protection. This led to the development of Vibram FiveFingers, a glove-like shoe that revolutionized the way people think about footwear. The conversation explores the journey of Vibram's FiveFingers shoes and the natural foot movement. Robert Fliri, a product developer at Vibram, discusses the importance of finding balance in movement and not pushing oneself beyond their limits. He emphasizes the idea of using footwear as tools to extend human capabilities, but also recognizes the value of the human foot as the perfect tool for running and walking. The conversation delves into the initial response to FiveFingers, the challenges faced in bringing the product to market, and the controversy surrounding the health benefits of the shoe. It also touches on the need for proper education and a gradual transition when adopting a natural footwear approach. The conversation concludes with a discussion on the future of the natural foot movement and the potential for wider public adoption.

En este programa, y a raíz de la opinión de un oyente, expongo mi opinión sobre el éxito de NNORMAL.1- Imagen: tener a Kilian al frente del proyecto, ha facilitado el éxito, en un fenómeno nunca visto y sn precedentes en nuestro sector.2- Solera: la imagen de experiencia y solvencia en el sector del calzado que atesora Camper, la empresa matriz, con 147 años en la industria, ha de ir acompañada también de un equipo capaz de entender las necesidades del mercado, y por tanto, con una amplia visión para interpretar esas necesidades, para transformarlas en un producto funcional.3- Percepción: el usuario necesita saber que ese producto es capaz de satisfacer sus necesidades. Para ello, NNORMAL se ha rodeado de proveedores de contrastado prestigio como Vibram y Matryx.Puedes contactarme en:juan@ellaboratoriodejuan.com

En este programa reflexiono sobre las modificaciones que se pueden llevar a cabo en un taller de resolado, como modificar la altura y/o drop.¿Es realmente conveniente?¿Es bueno cambiar las medidas de la zapatilla, con la modificación de ángulos que ello comporta?Personalmente, no estoy a favor de este tipo de prácticas, cuando una mediasuela, está fabricada gracias a un molde con unas medidas extraordinariamente precisas, y un lijado para rebajar altura o variar el drop, es algo que se hace de forma muy manual, y algo 'a ojo'.Contacto: juan@ellaboratoriodejuan.com

En el programa de hoy, expongo las opciones ACTUALES (marzo 2024) para poder resolar la NNormal Tomir 2, ya que de momento, la suela Vibram que monta de origen no está disponible en los talleres de resolado.Contacto:juan@ellaboratoriodejuan.com

En el podcast de hoy, reflexiono sobre las suelas de Asics, y es que desde hace tiempo llegué a la conclusión de que la marca necesita una suela para terreno suelto/barro.Varias marcas (Salomon o Scarpa) tienen en catalogo versión HT (terreno duro) y ST (terreno descompuesto), para abrirse a un mayor número de usuarios, según su lugar de residencia y/o entreno, y Asics necesita un producto así. Unir su compuesto AsicsGrip, con una configuración y diseño de la suela más específico para diferentes escenarios, sería todo un acierto.También repaso la arquitectura de la suela de la gama Trabuco y de la gama Fuji, para que puedas conocerla más en detalle.Puedes contactarme en:juan@ellaboratoriodejuan.com

Kia ora e te whānau. Throughout this episode, Robyn Lesh talks about puzzles. From working out how not to drop a single point in her community college maths class, to graduating MIT whilst figuring out the ideal point of balance on her Olympic class foiling sailboat, to the ideal weight distribution for America's Cup challenger American Magic, Robyn approaches life as a series of problems (in the truest sense of the word) to be solved. Trading her feet in the water for her feet in the dirt, Robyn set her sights on a life on the trails and in the mountains. For someone who was convinced that they couldn't run, to qualifying as the second-fastest woman in North America on the Golden Trail Series, Robyn continues to put the puzzle pieces into place as a professional trail runner for Vibram, whilst being a capo in the South Island-based  Katie Wright Mafia. Eugene and Matt talk to Robyn about all this, lining up at the Tarawera Ultra-Trail 50km, and more on this episode of Dirt Church Radio.  Best Enjoyed Running.Episode Links Subscribe to the DCR newsletter and DCR AidStation podcastRobyn Lesh on Instagram Robyn Lesh BlogModel Sailboat BusinessRobyn Run Coach ProfileMark Ford - Stroke Foundation of NZ CurranzSCOTT Running Julbo Eyewear UltrAspireirunfarDirt Church Radio on InstagramDirt Church Radio on Twitter Dirt Church Radio on Facebook CieleFurther Faster New ZealandSit Back and Enjoy!
