Technical features
Maximalist cushioning with a plush feel
The Skyward X 2 midsole combines soft-feel PEBA foam with a layer of supercritical EVA that delivers a more responsive and efficient ride. This setup provides excellent impact absorption and consistent energy return, ideal for long runs and daily road training.
In addition, the high-cushion geometry is designed to offer smooth transitions and an extremely comfortable feel from the very first kilometer.
A carbon plate that works like suspension
The standout feature of this model is its convex carbon fiber plate. This innovative design compresses and returns to shape during the stride to create a suspension effect that improves stability and delivers a dynamic, propulsive feel without being aggressive.
Thanks to this technology, the Skyward X 2 offers a smoother, more controlled experience even on long runs.
Premium upper with a sock-like fit
The Creel jacquard upper provides a premium feel and a comfortable, adaptive fit. The sock-like construction improves foot lockdown, while the padded tongue helps increase comfort during longer training sessions.
It also includes reflective details to enhance visibility in low-light conditions and a tongue loop that helps keep the laces in place.
Secure traction and increased durability
The outsole features grippy rubber in the forefoot to improve traction on asphalt, while Durabrasion Rubber in the heel reinforces the areas most exposed to wear and extends the shoe’s lifespan.
This combination helps maintain good traction and stability even as you log lots of miles.
