Lululemon recently released the Chargefeel workout shoe in mid and low-top iterations. The Chargefeel is a unique product within the performance footwear market because it’s designed for female feet. The well-recognized athletic apparel label worked with leading biomechanics and analyzed millions of volumental footscans to design a footwear collection that addresses more than one form of exercise. Lululemon’s Chargefeel footwear range defies typical cross-training construction by leading with the bounce and forward motion of a running shoe but also boasts stabilizing side-to-side motion of a trainer. This is all made possible by Lululemon’s dual-density foam layering system. The Chargefeel is currently available in 14 different colorways.
