This racing flat takes everything we love about the 1400 and marries it with a carbon-fiber plate and high-tech foam.
While these are still pretty soft for a racing flat and provide much more cushioning than a traditional non-carbon fiber racing flat, they provide less cushioning than other carbon fiber shoes on the market today.” The effect is kind of like a trampoline: The curved plate flattens and then snaps back to shape, returning energy to the runner—without the void, the plate wouldn’t be able to flatten. I like the carbon fiber—it feels like the shoe helps push my foot off the ground, leading me to run faster and have quicker turnover! They want the shoe to let their foot react the moment the sole strikes the pavement. But, is there a place for a 1400-type shoe in 2022, even if it leverages all of the latest high-tech materials? Clearly, though, some folks want “less shoe” for shorter distances, especially if you’re the type to dash in circles wearing track spikes.
