A featherweight distance spike aimed squarely at middle-distance and 3K-5K track racing. The full-length ZoomX foam adds enough cushion to stretch into the 3000m while staying snappy for the 800m and 1500m. Reviewers praise its lightweight, responsive feel and durable construction across indoor and outdoor seasons, though at least one user flagged that the spike metal is soft and can be gouged during pin tightening.
Lightweight and responsive with full-length ZoomX foam that offers enough cushion for the 3000m while remaining snappy for shorter distances.
Fit runs small, so sizing up is recommended, particularly for half-size wearers. The toe box is generous and lacing is secure.
Distance track racers competing from 800m through 5K who want a light, responsive spike with a touch more cushion.
You need a spike for road, trail or events outside the 800m-5K band, or you're rough on spike pins given reports of weak spike metal.
