Neutral

• Foot Type

  Normal size arches

• Push Off

  There is even distribution from the front of the foot.

• Considered Injuries

  Less likely due to effective shock absorption, but neutral runners are not immune to injury.

• How your foot contacts the ground

  The foot lands on outside of the heel, then rolls inward (pronates) to absorb shock and support body weight.

Underpronation

• Foot Type

  High arches

• Push Off

  The pressure is on smaller toes on outside of foot.

• Considered Injuries

  Plantar fasciitis, shin splints, ankle strain.

• How your foot contacts the ground

  The outer side of the heel hits the ground at an increased angle with little or no normal pronation, causing a large transmission of shock through the lower leg.

Details

The METASPEED™ EDGE TOKYO shoe is our pinnacle racing product, designed for cadence-style runners who are looking to start fast and finish faster. Runners wearing these shoes will be able to increase their speed by increasing number of strides and conserve energy with each step.

The newly designed FF LEAP™ foam technology is super lightweight and bouncy. It’s strategically positioned in the midsole’s top layer to help provide more cushioning and a higher energy return. The bottom layer of the midsole implements FF TURBO™ PLUS cushioning. This configuration enhances the foam’s responsive properties while creating better stability so your heel doesn’t sink at mid-stance.

Thanks to a carbon plate, runners wearing these shoes will be able to conserve more energy while maintaining their pace at the later stages of the race.​ This property will also help you to kick-through the 30km wall.
