ASICS launches its latest advancement in long-distance track spikes with METASPEED™ LD, which focuses on energy conservation and helps long-distance track runners make longer strides with less effort.
This shoe with FF BLAST TURBO™ cushioning returns more energy at the toe-off. It is combined with a full-length carbon plate that catapults athletes forward with a longer stride length and a SHARKDUO outsole™ in the heel to increase traction on track surfaces.
The pinless carbon HEXA-CLAW™ outsole, first used in long-distance track spikes, is designed to increase traction. Rather than piercing the surface of the track like traditional track spikes, the outsole's traction is formed in different sizes and Angeles to support movement and control the direction of power, leading to forward power movement. The pinless mechanism reduces contact time by shortening the time of spike pins going in and out of the track and allows the athlete to glide down the track and helps athletes save energy between steps.
