Everything about this product
Carbon Plate
Carbon Plate. Spring Off Toe.
Carbon plate running shoes built around a sheet of carbon fiber laid into supercritical foam. The plate stiffens the stride and returns energy on toe-off, while the foam compresses and rebounds to absorb shock on landing. A super fiber mesh upper breathes through hard efforts, lace-up fit locks the foot. Black red, Black moon or White green, sizes 39 to 48.
Mesh Upper
Super Fiber Mesh Breathes
The upper is a super fiber mesh that lets air move across the foot through a hard session, holding the foot in place without baking it. The lace-up closure dials in the fit so the midfoot stays locked down at speed, the heel sits flat and the toe is rounded for room up front. It keeps the whole shoe light, which is where the effortless feel on long miles comes from.
Foam Outsole
Supercritical Foam Sole
Underfoot, a sheet of carbon fiber sits inside a supercritical foam outsole. The rigid plate keeps the foam from collapsing sideways, so more of your push turns into forward motion instead of being lost. The foam compresses and rebounds to take the sting out of each footfall, and a wear-resistant rubber layer grips the road and holds up to repeated mileage.

How it works
How the carbon plate works
- 1
Lace up and lock the fit
Loosen the laces fully, slide the foot in and pull the lace-up closure snug. The mesh upper wraps the midfoot so the heel sits flat and stable before you start.
- 2
Push off the carbon plate
As you stride, the carbon fiber plate stiffens the midfoot and flicks the foot forward, turning your push into forward motion instead of letting it sink into soft foam.
- 3
Land on supercritical foam
On each landing the supercritical foam compresses and rebounds, soaking up the shock before it reaches the knees and springing back to carry the next stride.
- 4
Hold the pace and recover
The light build keeps the legs fresh deep into the run. Air the mesh out after the effort and rotate with a daily trainer so the foam and plate stay springy.

FAQ
Questions before checkout
What makes the sole fast?
A carbon fiber plate is set into the supercritical foam outsole. The rigid plate keeps the foam from collapsing sideways, so more of your push turns into forward motion, and the foam returns energy on toe-off while it cushions the landing.
Is the upper breathable?
Yes. The super fiber mesh upper moves air across the foot through hard efforts, so the foot stays cooler on a long run. The mesh holds the foot in place without baking it, and the lace-up closure dials in the fit.
Are they cushioned for impact?
Yes. The supercritical foam compresses and rebounds on each landing to absorb shock, which softens the impact on the knees and joints. It is the same foam and plate pairing that fast road shoes lean on for a cushioned, propulsive ride.
What sizes and colors are offered?
Whole sizes 39 through 48 in three colorways, Black red, Black moon and White green. Each size lists its matching foot length in the variant list, so you can check the length before you choose your pair.
What runs are these built for?
They shine on tempo runs, interval sessions and race day, where a quick turnover rewards the carbon plate. Many runners rotate them with a heavier trainer for easy days so the foam and plate stay fresh for the sessions where speed counts.
How is the fit and closure?
The lace-up closure locks the midfoot down for stability at speed, the heel sits flat and the toe is rounded for room up front. The mesh upper wraps the foot snugly, so the shoe feels secure through quick changes of pace.
Are they good for race day?
Yes. On race morning you lace them tight and let the energy return carry the back half, when fatigue usually drags the legs down. The light build keeps the mass you swing through the final kilometers low, so the legs feel fresher.
How do I keep them fresh?
Wipe the mesh upper with a damp cloth and air the pair out after a hard run. Rotating them with another trainer for easy days lets the foam and plate recover between fast sessions, which keeps the ride springy over many miles.
