AKU Flyrock T Black

AKU Flyrock T (AK698T.1) – Black

Light, fast, and unlined for warm-weather movement — the Flyrock T is a low-cut tactical shoe for ground covered at speed. A textile and welded PU film upper wraps a soft but durable structure, with no waterproof membrane, so the shoe breathes freely in dry heat and on dusty ground where a lined shoe only traps warmth. The Vibram Megagrip outsole with Flight Traction Lug grips rock, gravel and hardpack, and AKU's Dynamic Fit tunes heel tension to your stride. At 372g per half pair, these are tactical trainers light enough to forget you're wearing them, in a discreet all-Black colourway that holds a low profile for duty, security and plain-clothes wear as readily as the trail.

WHY YOU'LL LIKE IT

• Unlined, breathable build — with no waterproof membrane, air moves straight through the upper, keeping feet cool and quick-drying in warm, dusty conditions where a lined shoe overheats.
• Vibram Megagrip with Flight Traction Lug — Vibram's high-grip Megagrip compound, paired with an aggressive self-clearing lug, holds traction across wet rock, loose gravel and hardpack without packing up.
• AKU Dynamic Fit — adjustable heel tension locks the foot down over fast, broken ground, cutting heel slip on descents and quick changes of direction.
• Same chassis as the Gore-Tex Flyrock T at 372g per half pair — identical Vibram outsole, Double Density EVA midsole and flexible lasting board as the waterproof 698T, with the membrane stripped out for maximum airflow.
• UK 3–13 including half sizes.

BEST FOR

• Warm, dry deployments, range days and summer exercise — where breathability beats waterproofing and the unlined build outperforms the Gore-Tex 698T.
• Fast, light movement over mixed ground — rock, gravel, dusty tracks and hardpack — where a low-cut shoe beats a boot for speed and ground feel.
• Low-profile duty and security wear — plain-clothes, close protection, venue and door work where an all-black shoe needs to stay discreet, then doubles as a fast-hiking shoe off-duty.
