The Altra Vanish Carbon 2 is a carbon-plated road racing shoe featuring a 0mm drop and unique foot-shaped toe box to deliver a natural ride and top performance on race day. The Altra Vanish Carbon 2 is a highly cushioned carbon-plated road racing shoe with a unique 0mm drop for a fast and natural stride. The stack height has been improved with an additional 3mm of Altra EGO PRO foam for an even more protective and dynamic underfoot experience. Meanwhile, a full-length carbon fiber plate has also been updated to increase asymmetry and is combined with the use of an Active Stance Rocker to create a more natural stride and enhance overall efficiency. In the outsole, rubber is strategically placed to ensure a low overall weight without losing the traction needed for fast turns. The Altra Vanish Carbon 2 is wrapped up with a minimal, yet secure upper that showcases Altra's Slim FootShape fit, offering a snug and comfortable feel while allowing ample room for the toes to splay. All in all, the Vanish Carbon 2 combines the very best from Altra's advanced technologies to take your race performance to the next level.
