New Balance M990V2 Blue Black Grey 25.5cm | Skechers talla 38
Features
Get an edge on race day with the men's Skechers talla 38.
New Balance designed the RC Elite 2 with a FuelCell midsole and full-length carbon fiber plate for maximum speed when you need it most. The FuelCell foam is lightweight and bouncy to help drive you forward, while the carbon fiber plate adds a propulsive feel to the ride.
Designers wrapped the racing shoe in a breathable knit upper for comfort, and they constructed a traditional collar for a familiar, low-profile fit. New Balance also added a light rubber outsole to improve traction on pavement so you don’t spin your wheels when you hit top speed.
With a midfoot cutout in the foam to further reduce weight, the men's Skechers talla 38 is primed for PRs.

Distance trainer
Similar fit as my other shoes. The extra stack is very friendly for my long runs. Slight offset of 8mm goes well with Rebel for czarnym. 6’0; 190lb.
Great race or workout day option
For a Carbon plated shoe it is extremely soft and forgiving on your feet. The softness does make the shoe feel a little unstable but as someone who wears stability shoes as an everyday trainer it didn't mujerer me much. The super responsive foam is everything you would expect/want it to be so its definitely plenty fast but for me I feel its best used as a 10k and up racer I just think a firmer feeling shoe would be faster at 5k or less.
Great Shoe for my First Marathon
I've been training in the New Balance 1080 and Rebel V2s mujer excellent shoes so I was a fan of New Balance to begin with. When I ran my first marathon ever this year I was looking for a very comfortable and forgiving race-day shoe that still had some pop. I was on the fence between this and the Vaporfly or Alphafly but after reading many reviews this felt like the best option in terms of protecting my knees and joints. The shoes performed like a charm! They are incredibly comfortable and fast and easy to transition between paces effortlessly. This is my first experience with a carbon-plated super shoe so I can't really compare it to the Nike offerings or the Metaspeed Sky but I can say confidently that these are the best running shoes I have ever owned so far. Absolutely worth checking out!
New Balance FuelCell Elite V2
Great shoe. Narrow toe box for anyone that has a wider foot like myself. You can really feel return from the shore at quickerrQuicker paces.
