The fast, stable Columbia Sportswear Men's Ravenous Stability Omni-Tech Trail Running Shoe gobbles up single track while dishing up a healthy portion of pronation control and weather protection. Designed specifically for aggressive trail runners who want some extra off-road stability, the Ravenous Stability Omni-Tech features a full-length dual-density Techlite midsole with firmer EVA foam at the midfoot to keep feet from rolling too far inward or outward at the footstrike. Our revolutionary heel capture system puts softer 3D molded Techlite material directly against the heel and moves the stabilizing heel counter to the outside. This provides a comfortable, conforming fit where trail runners told us they need it most. The breathable mesh body sports a dual-density collar for added comfort and waterproof technology for great protection against rain, puddles and creek crossings. Designed for performance from the ground up, the Ravenous features a multi-directional lugged outsole with Omni-Grip rubber for superb traction on wet, muddy or rough terrain.

Customer Reviews for the Ravenous Stability Omni-Tech Trail Running Columbia Men's Shoe

JimT - June 20, 2011

Comfortable Out Of The Box
I purchased these shoes to wear as I attempt to train for and run a 5K. I'm 5' 11" and 225 lbs. with VERY flat feet so I lumber in them but they're great. I'm running on trails with gravel, sand and rocks and so far I haven't slipped or pounded my foot on any rocks. The motion control works better than any I've had so far and I'm able to lace them up nicely to get the forefoot control I need. I'm normally a Montrail man because they fit my swimfin shaped feet but the Omni-Techs may change that (and yes I know Columbia bought Montrail). My only two cons are that they're so smooth inside (both a pro and a con) my heel slips even more than usual and the color.
