The U-TECH Vichara is a true running shoe innovation. Thanks to a completely new biomechanical concept, the U-TECH Vichara reduces the risk of injury even more and ensures a unique synergy of responsiveness and softness. The newly developed U-TECH™ Nitrogen Foam lets you sink into the running shoe as soft as a feather - and catapults you into the next step with 80% energy return. For the first time, the U-TECH Vichara uses the so-called Biological U-TECH™: the patented U-TECH™ Technology is adapted to the anatomical-biological structures of the foot, while the new, innovative Biomechanical TrueFlex leads to an even more responsive push-off. In other words, the U-TECH Vichara is biomechanical perfection - for all types of runners (overpronators, supinators and neutral runners). Experience biomechanics.

CENTERED FOOTSTRIKE
Biological U-TECH™ lets you run securely and centered with every step, as nature intended. For more softness and maximum responsiveness.
MAXIMUM RESPONSIVE PUSH-OFF
The innovative Biomechanical TrueFlex provides a maximum explosive push-off and reduces the stress on your metatarsophalangeal joint.
NITROGEN-INJECTED FOAM
Thanks to the U-TECH™ Nitrogen Foam, you will hit the ground as soft as a feather - and still catapult yourself into the next step with 80% energy return. Maximum responsiveness with incredible softness.

RUNNER
PROFILE
"For all runners seeking a stable and highly responsive running shoe. We don't use categories like Neutral or Support. Our technology centers the point of force throughout the entire movement. This eliminates the cause of unphysiological stresses and prevents problems from arising in the first place. Whether you've previously run in a neutral or stability shoe or worn orthotics, in the U-TECH Vichara, you're safe and well taken care of. In contrast to the U-TECH Aion, the U-TECH Vichara is even more responsive and biomechanically refined. The asymmetrical design of the U-TECH™ tubes is based on the anatomical-biological structures of the foot, enabling an extremely smooth roll and perfect centering of the forces at play."
Drop
"Statically 10 mm. Since your foot sinks into the center of our Biological U-TECH™ technology while running, it is immediately at a dynamic foot-neutral drop of 0 mm. This allows for highly efficient rolling and maximum responsive push-off from the ground."
Use
"From 5K runs to ultramarathons, fast races to most comfortable training runs – for all runs where you need responsiveness and softness at the same time."
“FOR FAST 5KS TO LONG TRAINING RUNS:
YOU'LL FEEL THE MOST CUSHIONING OF OUR U-TECH NEVOS YET”
"On Sanskrit, the sacred language of Hinduism, Vichara means 'seeking the source of thought.' That's exactly what we've done in developing the U-TECH Vichara. We've broken familiar patterns and reimagined them – to optimize each component biomechanically once again. The result: a running experience like never before. The U-TECH Vichara embodies a unique interplay of responsiveness and softness. Two components between which runners often had to choose. Not anymore with the U-TECH Vichara. An advancement of our patented, U-shaped sole technology, the so-called Biological U-TECH™, leads to an extremely smooth roll, while the forces at play are perfectly centered. The innovative Biomechanical TrueFlex flex groove in the forefoot area and our newly developed U-TECH™ Nitrogen Foam also ensure an explosive forward push. In the U-TECH Vichara, biomechanics become tangible – a true game-changer."
