The Saucony Endorphin Pro 4 delivers incredible responsiveness and elite efficiency for the marathon. Featuring a carbon-fiber plate, highly responsive and lightweight PWRRUN foam, and a refined upper, this shoe is ready to go the distance.
Weighing in at only 6.5 ounces, the METASPEED Paris stands out as the lightest of the super shoe pack. Featuring two distinct models, the Sky and Edge, the Sky is designed for stride-style runners (who increase stride length with speed), while the Edge is optimized for cadence runners (who increase stride turnover with speed).
An all-new racing shoe from HOKA, the Cielo X1 offers an ultra-high level of soft and bouncy cushioning for a smooth, efficient stride over long distances. This shoe is perfectly suited for the marathoners who prioritize comfort and protection above all else.
Both incredibly lightweight and incredibly fast, the Nike Alphafly 3 is one of the most innovative and efficient racing shoes available. From the unique Air Zoom Units in the forefoot and a widened carbon-fiber plate to the dialed-in upper fabric, it's no wonder this shoe was worn by the current marathon world record holder.
Faster, softer, and more cushioned than ever before, the New Balance FuelCell SuperComp Elite v4 is a reliable race-day option for the half and full marathon. Redesigned from top to bottom, this shoe offers a highly energetic and efficient ride from start to finish.
