Our read

A dedicated marathon and half-marathon racer for efficient runners who want a very light, snappy carbon plate shoe and don't need daily-trainer versatility.

Ride

The PEBA-based foam and full-length carbon plate produce a responsive, propulsive ride at speed with a moderate 6 mm drop.

Fit

Regular width with a single-layer engineered mesh upper and integrated gaiter, giving a snug, minimal race fit with little structure.

Best for

Marathon and half-marathon racing where low weight and a stiff, propulsive toe-off matter most.

Avoid if

You want an all-around trainer, need a wider fit, or prefer a stable, forgiving platform for easy mileage.
