Durability and performance for the Spin Planet from Scarpa

Scarpa has launched the SPIN PLANET, an eco-friendly and sustainable trail running shoe designed for long distances. This new version of the shoe is made from recycled materials, with an upper fabric entirely composed of these materials. The midsole is 45% recycled and the rubber outsole is 30%. This shoe is ideal for summer races and is suitable for both beginners and experienced runners looking to buy trail shoes or discover other high-performance models.

The SPIN PLANET offers many practical features for runners covering long distances on trails. Its midsole absorbs shocks and provides protective cushioning. With a 4 mm drop and a flared heel, it offers stability on varied terrains and comfortable cushioning for technical sections. Weighing only 580 g for a men's size 42 (and 520 g for a women's size 38), the SPIN PLANET guarantees comfort and style, whether starting in trail running or seeking a recognizable shoe. To complete the gear for enthusiasts, also discover our selection of trail shoes and find trail gear at the best price.



Co-design of the shoe with sky runner ambassador Hyllary Gerardi


For the development of this shoe, Scarpa chose Hillary Gerardi as an ambassador. Hillary, a mountain runner and professional athlete, is originally from Vermont in the United States, and currently lives in the Chamonix valley, close to her passion for trail and mountains. In addition to her running career, Hillary is also involved in environmental preservation, including participating in waste collection activities and supporting environmental organizations. If you want to complete your trail outfit, consider high-performance trail clothing or a high-performance trail headlamp for your night outings.

« Scarpa is a company that has always had its DNA rooted in the mountains and nature. When I started working on this shoe project, the team was very attentive to questions about sustainability, components, technical feasibility, how to reduce the impact of its manufacturing... It is very innovative to have been able to create a shoe that meets all these criteria: technical, high-performing, lightweight, and sustainable with 100% recycled materials for the upper part and 45% for the sole. »

Hillary's achievements:

  • Vice-world champion of Skyrunning 2018 (1st at Trofeo Kima, Tromso Skyrace, and Glencoe Skyline in 2018)
  • 3-time winner of the Pierra Menta summer
  • 1st at Monte Rosa Skymarathon
  • Speed record Sentiero Roma, Italy, 2020
