SCOTT Pursuit Ride 2 Running Shoe
The SCOTT Pursuit Ride 2 is a versatile road running shoe designed for daily training, longer runs and road-to-gravel sessions. Built to balance comfort, responsiveness and efficiency, it combines SCOTT’s latest Kinetic Nitrogen midsole foam with ER3 Evolved Rocker Technology for a smooth, cushioned and energetic ride.
Whether you’re building weekly mileage, heading out for an easy recovery run or picking up the pace on a steady session, the Pursuit Ride 2 is designed to feel comfortable and lively across a wide range of running speeds. SCOTT positions it as a dependable everyday trainer that can handle everything from road running to hard-packed gravel.
Kinetic Nitrogen Midsole
At the heart of the Pursuit Ride 2 is SCOTT’s Kinetic Nitrogen Foam, produced using a supercritical foaming process that infuses nitrogen into the material.
The result is a midsole designed to be softer, lighter and more responsive than traditional foams, with strong energy return and consistent performance across different temperatures. This gives the shoe a plush underfoot feel without sacrificing the lively response runners want from a daily training shoe.
ER3 Evolved Rocker Technology
The Pursuit Ride 2 uses SCOTT’s latest ER3 Evolved Rocker Technology.
ER3 builds on the previous rocker concept by adding medio-lateral guidance as well as helping control impact and encourage efficient forward movement. The geometry is designed to guide the foot naturally through each stride while providing support where needed.
Engineered Mesh Upper
A lightweight engineered mesh upper provides breathability, flexibility and a secure fit.
The mesh construction helps keep the shoe comfortable during longer runs while reducing unnecessary weight, giving the Pursuit Ride 2 an athletic and streamlined feel.
Flat Traction Outsole
SCOTT’s Flat Traction outsole uses a large contact area to provide dependable grip, including in wet conditions.
The outsole is designed specifically for efficient running on road and hard-packed surfaces, making the Pursuit Ride 2 a good option for runners whose routes regularly mix pavement, park paths and compact gravel tracks.
Ortholite ECO X-40 Footbed
An Ortholite ECO X-40 footbed adds extra step-in comfort and cushioning.
Combined with the responsive midsole and breathable upper, it helps make the Pursuit Ride 2 comfortable enough for everyday mileage and longer training runs.
