Expert Breakdown

Carbon-plated race shoes are designed to store and return energy with every stride, boosting running efficiency and speed. Combined with bouncy PEBA foam, they reduce leg fatigue on fast or long runs. New Balance stands out by offering this elite race performance in genuine wide options for bigger feet.

I have big feet—I wear size 11.5 and usually need 2E wide for running shoes. Almost all carbon super shoes on the market are built narrow, but this wide carbon shoe fits my foot perfectly and feels incredible on speed runs.
