First Look: Ride Concepts' TNT Mid-Top Shoe - Pond Beaver 2021

I'm wondering if someone in plastics engineering or maybe someone from RC can fill in some blanks for me here? I'm puzzled by the use of D30 in the inner sole. My understanding is that the viscoelastic polymer is soft and flexible until impact, when it hardens to disperse energy? At least that's the media spin we get when it's used in armor. But in the case of footwear, don't we want it to behave the opposite way? Firm under pedaling load, to help transfer power, then soft and cushioning when sharp. harsh, repetitive forces are transferred through the pedals?

Kaz, if you were wearing that Bluegrass back protector and knee high boots while you were telling me about this, then and only then, would I be prepared to listen
