Sleek look, steady miles. The Mythos Blushield 7 Vortice Hip in black delivers Diadora’s plush Blushield® feel with a centered, neutral ride and a streamlined colorway. Breathable mesh, road-grip rubber, and an easy-rolling transition make this an effortless daily trainer from easy jogs to long-run Sundays.
What makes the “Hip” edition shine
-
Blushield® cushioning + alignment: morpho-base platform with reactive core helps absorb impact and smooth out asymmetry for a balanced stride.
-
Engineered air-mesh upper: airy knit locks down at the midfoot while staying cool at toe and vamp.
-
EVA midsole comfort: soft landings with lively rebound for commute 5Ks, treadmill sessions, and weekend base miles.
-
All-day outsole package: Flexoft blown rubber in the forefoot for softness; Duratech 5000 at the heel for long-wear traction.
-
Clean black finish: versatile, gym-to-street colorway; select runs add subtle visibility hits.*
