THE NEW SYLAN 2
SYLAN 2. THE DESCENT.
Built to move fast in the mountains.
Set against the rugged terrain of the Southern Highlands, NSW, at Caoura Cliffs, 100 runners came together to put the Sylan 2 to the test on technical terrain, steep descents, and demanding trails.
Bringing together the trail community, from those new to trail running through to elite athletes, the event created an opportunity to experience the shoe in the environment it was built for.
Designed for speed and confidence, the Sylan 2 delivered where performance matters most.
