The design and development of this product started in Xiamen, in March, 2023. It was introduced to the market in China, in August, 2023.
Operation Flow
The full length carbon fibre plate with high strength slightly upturned at the front part and the inner side of the middle part frees runners from unsteadiness on the forefoot and midfoot. The full length design, and the largely curved toe cap enable the release of more kinetic energy, so that runners can save more physical strength, whereby to enhance their performance.
Research
Marathon running distinguishes itself from traditional track and field events with its long distance and duration, and shoes, besides physical strength, are also a key factor influencing performance of marathoners. Therefore, to ensure good comfort and help runners save physical strength during a marathon has become a main aim of shoe research and development.
