Arc'teryx Sylan 2 Shoes (Men's)

Take your trail pace up a gear with the Arc’teryx Sylan 2, a next-level trail racer that builds on what made the original Sylan great and pushes it toward faster, more performance-focused runs. With an advanced dual-density midsole featuring supercritical foam and a forked carbon composite plate for propulsive energy and stability, Sylan 2 is made for runners who chase speed on singletrack and rugged trails alike. Updated stack heights give you a lively yet supportive ride that doesn’t feel mushy underfoot.

Who it’s for: Trail racers, FKT hunters, and performance-oriented runners who demand grip and propulsion without excess weight. This is a shoe that loves to go—quick running, racing, and hard efforts on varied terrain where responsiveness and traction matter.

Character & performance: Expect a forward-rolling ride with plenty of energy return and a thrusty sensation underfoot thanks to the carbon plate and foams designed for cushioning and pop. The updated Vibram® Megagrip outsole with re-tuned lugs sticks well on wet dirt, rock, and scree while shedding mud better than before, helping you maintain confidence through fast sections.
