Our read

A race-day shoe for runners chasing PRs from 5K to the marathon; the slotted carbon plate and firm, responsive foam prioritize snappy transitions over plush comfort.

Ride

Firm and responsive underfoot, with the carbon plate and SpeedRoll geometry driving quick, propulsive transitions rather than a soft landing.

Fit

Standard racing fit that runs true to size with a secure midfoot; a bungee lace version is offered for those wanting a locked-down feel.

Best for

Runners who want a plated racer with an aggressive, firm ride for road races from 5K up to the marathon.

Avoid if

You want a soft, forgiving cushion or a do-everything trainer for easy daily miles.
