Rocket X

RacingRelease date 2020-11-06JP

Rocket X is the first-generation unisex road racer, built for race-day speed. Its compression-molded EVA midsole pairs a carbon-fiber plate with an early-stage MetaRocker for forward transitions. A breathable mesh upper and anatomical tongue streamline the fit, while zonal rubber protects key contact areas without covering the full outsole. This keeps the plated platform focused on lightweight road racing.
