Vanish Carbon 3

AltraRacingReleased 2026-08-18

Vanish Carbon 3 is Altra’s road racer for racing and speedwork. It replaces the previous full-length plate with a patent-pending split-toe carbon design that supports the big toe and lateral forefoot independently. Two layers of full-PEBA FAST RCE foam pair with a rubber outsole, lightweight engineered mesh, Racing FootShape fit, and a revised rocker to promote race-day propulsion while preserving toe movement.

Best for: Race, Tempo
