The Alpinestars Meta XR v2 is an anatomically engineered off-road running shoe designed for all-day comfort, dependable support, and confident traction across varied terrain. This Bright Red/Dark Red/White model is sized for US 8.5 / EU 41 and is identified by manufacturer and vendor part number 2654825-3045-8.5. Built for occasional off-road running, the shoe combines a lightweight minimal construction with durable protective elements for a secure, glove-like fit.
Its single-piece mesh upper promotes airflow and breathability while reducing excess material. The slim textile and soft Thermoplastic Polyurethane (TPU) tongue work with the quarter panel to improve fit, foot stability, and protection. A rugged, oil-resistant rubber sole uses a dedicated tread design to provide reliable grip on dirt and other challenging surfaces. The anatomically optimized sole supports comfort, cushioning, and stability during extended wear.
The midsole wall wraps the foot securely, while a highly resilient EVA insert beneath the heel provides long-lasting softness and impact absorption. A removable OrthoLite® insole with an open-cell polyurethane compound enhances ventilation, comfort, and durability while helping reduce overheating. TPU toe reinforcements add structure and abrasion resistance, and a Thermoplastic Rubber (TPR) heel insert provides impact protection and additional stability.
