Scott Speed Carbon RC Running Shoes
The Speed Carbon RC is a new breed of road racing shoe. Building on 10 years of R and D, Scott have created their fastest road racing shoe to date. A Carbitex GearFlex Carbon plate, Kinetic Light Foam and their ER2 rocker geometry create a lightweight and efficient racing shoe that gives you back more of the energy you put in. So you can run faster for longer.
Lightweight Cordura Mesh Upper
Surrounding the upper of the Speed Carbon RC is an updated lightweight Cordura mesh, which will provide you with supreme breathability. As you begin to exercise, the feet will start to warm up and sweat and the material will allow the hot air and moisture that is starting to build up to escape. This will then be replaced by cooler air, and this process will keep you feeling cool and ventilated over the course of your run. A traditional lacing system will allow you to find a fit that is both comfortable and secure, which will leave you feeling in complete control. The performance tongue will sit comfortably on the ankle and allow you to make unrestricted movements and an internal fit system feels as though the shoe was made for you. A racing footbed provides soft comfort directly in contact with the sole of the feet, and over time it will fit specifically to your feet.
Dual Density Kinetic Light Foam Midsole with Carbitex GearFlex Plate
Scott's lightest and most responsive foam to date. Enhancing the properties of their existing high rebound foam (Kinetic Foam) this new lightweight foam has even more rebound in an even lighter package. Soft, light and responsive but with high levels of durability, the Speed Carbon RC allows you to run faster for longer. A Carbitex GearFlex Carbon fibre plate offers unique benefits by being dynamically flexible, responding to you by increasing stiffness as you increase speed, and retaining flexibility when walking. By dynamically increasing stiffness as it's flexed it gives you more power and efficiency when you need it, and ease of movement when you don't. It's like having a track spike and running shoe in one. Completing the midsole is an Evolved Rocker2 (ER2) which builds on 10 years of continued R and D, creating Scott's most efficient running platform yet. It applies an advanced understanding of biomechanical principles to promote a more dynamic running position. This reduces impacts from heel strike and increases running efficiency.
Speed Traction Outsole
Specifically designed for weight saving, the Speed Traction is Scott's lightest in range. With its strategically placed outsole, it puts power down to the road in the most direct and efficient manner focusing on the forefoot traction for no loss of power. Lighter means you can run faster for longer. The rubber used is extremely durable, which means that it will be able to retain all of its properties over a long course of time.
