Carbon X 2

Racing2021-01-01 · US · ReleaseChecked 2026-10-11

Carbon X 2 redesigns the original Carbon X for long-distance training and racing. Its PROFLY midsole pairs a responsive carbon-fiber plate with aggressive Meta-Rocker geometry to move from a cushioned landing into a propulsive toe-off. Lightweight engineered mesh, a gusseted tongue, and an integrated Achilles pull tab refine hold. A rubberized EVA outsole adds cushioning for training mileage and race-day efforts.
