METASPEED SKY+
METASPEED SKY+ is the second-generation road racer for stride-style runners. It adds about 4% more FF BLAST TURBO than the original and relocates a flatter full-length carbon plate high in the midsole, compressing more foam for stronger rebound and a longer stride. A lighter MOTION WRAP upper supports the midfoot, while the curved ASICSGRIP outsole adds traction through faster corners on race day and speed sessions.
