Lace up at the start line and push off, and the carbon plate flicks your foot forward like a spring. A single sheet of carbon fiber sits in supercritical foam that compresses and rebounds to soften each landing on your joints. The super fiber mesh upper breathes through a hard effort, the lace-up fit locks the midfoot, and the shoe stays light so your legs stay fresh on the back half.

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.

Have a question?

Our common questions

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.

Review summary

Runners reach for this pair on tempo days and race mornings. They call out the spring off the carbon plate on each toe-off, how the supercritical foam softens the pounding on hard pavement, and how light the shoe feels deep into a long run. The breathable mesh upper gets steady praise for keeping the foot cool through a hard effort.

MathieuVerified Purchase

Real spring off the plate

First tempo run in these and the plate genuinely flicks you forward on toe off. My foot cycled quicker for the same effort and my legs were fresher at the end. Thrilled with them.

Thanks Mathieu, that quick toe off is exactly what the plate is built for. Enjoy the fast days.

LarsVerified Purchase

Foam soaks up the pounding

I run a lot of road miles and my knees usually feel it. The supercritical foam takes the sting out of every landing here. Cushioned but still snappy when I pick up the pace.

Light as a feather

These weigh barely a thing on the foot. Deep into a long run my legs were still cycling over easily instead of dragging. The mesh upper kept me cool the whole way.

Great race day pick

Wore them for a 10k and got a fast split for me. The energy return is real on the back half. Took one session to dial in the lacing then the fit was spot on.

AnneliesVerified Purchase

Cool and breathable

The super fiber mesh moves so much air. Even on a warm midday effort my feet stayed comfortable. The dark red pair looks sharp too and the sole feels premium.

Love hearing that Annelies, the mesh upper is made for those warm hard efforts.

TomasVerified Purchase

Quick on intervals

Did a set of intervals in these and the plate rewards a fast cadence. Each rep felt springy and the foam saved my legs between efforts. A proper session shoe.

Snappy and cushioned

Lovely mix of cushioning and pop. The carbon plate gives that propulsive feel without being harsh. Wish there were more colorways but the ones offered look clean.

Legs stay fresh

The light build is the standout for me. On the back half of a long run my legs were free of any dead weight. Toe off feels effortless with the plate underneath.
