A race-day super shoe for runners who want carbon-plated propulsion without a tippy platform, thanks to a wider heel and reverse-camber geometry. The trade-off is a narrow fit and a price that matches its rivals.
A full-length optiFOAM+ (PEBA/EVA) midsole paired with a carbon energyBLADE delivers energy return and snappy toe-off. The wider heel and reverse-camber geometry make it more stable than most plated racers.
Runs true to size for most, with a narrow standard width and a soft, seamless collar. Runners needing more room across the forefoot may find it tight.
Marathon and shorter road races where you want carbon propulsion but prefer a more stable, less unstable ride than typical super shoes.
You have wide feet or want a versatile daily trainer, as the fit is narrow and the price and construction point to race use only.
