Carbon X 2

RacingReleased 2021-01-01JP

Carbon X 2 redesigns the original Carbon X for long-distance training and racing. Its PROFLY midsole pairs a responsive carbon-fiber plate with aggressive Meta-Rocker geometry to move from a cushioned landing into a propulsive toe-off. Lightweight engineered mesh, a gusseted tongue, and an integrated Achilles pull tab refine hold. A rubberized EVA outsole adds cushioning for training mileage and race-day efforts.
