The Dragonfly XC 2 targets competitive cross-country racing, addressing the original's lack of support with a full-length plate fused to the outsole for stability and traction. ZoomX foam adds responsive cushioning rare in a spike, and the weather-ready upper is aimed at muddy courses. One user noted it still feels slightly heavy for a spike but praised the energy return and durable materials.
ZoomX foam gives a responsive, springy ride uncommon in XC spikes, while the full-length ultralight plate delivers propulsion and stability on soft, uneven terrain.
Unisex sizing runs from M4/W5.5 to M15/W16.5; no independent width or fit data available.
Cross-country racers wanting a cushioned, responsive spike for grass, dirt and mud across standard and longer XC courses.
You need a road or trail shoe, or a minimal ultralight spike; some users find this one a touch heavy.
