Tracksmith is getting into the “tremendous shoe” market with its latest footwear silhouette: the minimal, ultra-speedy Eliot Racer. That includes a full-length carbon fiber plate nestled underneath a drop-in TPU and Pebax foam midsole, the Eliot Racer goals to supply a race-day-ready expertise that eliminates as a lot glue and as many layers as potential to reduce weight and maximize consolation.

The shoe’s drop-in building differentiates it from different fashions in the marketplace by changing the usual midsole system — carbon plate, midsole, strobel and insole — with a single thick slab of froth: in brief, the insole and the midsole are one piece, eliminating the necessity for a strobel, the skinny piece of fabric that normally seperates an insole from a midsole. The forefoot gives a roomy match to allot for the foot swelling that happens throughout long-distance runs, whereas the heel is made extra slender to extend lockdown. Aesthetic-wise, the Eliot Racer’s form is sleeker and extra minimal than different fashions in its class, as most “tremendous footwear” characteristic a thick foam midsole, whereas Tracksmith’s signature racing stripe is current on the midfoot for a touch of branded aptitude.

Two colorways of the Eliot Racer are slated for launch: it’ll debut in white and gold, with a navy and gold colorway following later within the yr. The primary colorway is out there now through Tracksmith’s brick-and-mortar outlets in New York Metropolis, Boston and London, and can launch on-line March 18. MSRP is about at $280 USD.
