Vasque footwear makes shoes with a purpose. For starters, the Vasque Pendulum Trail Runner ($109; available February 2013 at Vasque.com) positions the foot closer to the ground so its wearers have a natural forefoot strike. Its immersion 360 technology offers a perfect fit that hugs the foot and keeps it secure on long runs, while its 3mm flux foam insole warms up to conform to the foot after 10 minutes of wear and then returns to its original structure once you get back home. It's a perfect fit every time!
