VJ LIGHTSPEED 2 SNEAKERS

The VJ Lightspeed 2 is an ultralight racing shoe developed in collaboration with elite trail runners with the goal of creating the world’s fastest trail running shoe.

It features a SuperFOAMance midsole, which is made of a high-tech, ultra-lightweight, nitrogen-infused material that provides extreme cushioning and energy return. This new foam is a modern, supercritical foam that is lighter, more responsive, more comfortable, and more propulsive than traditional EVA foam. Compared to other foams, SuperFOAMance is more durable and doesn’t tear as easily.

The midsole is topped with a branched composite plate that pushes the runner forward like a spring would. The reason the plate is branched is to provide lateral flexibility to optimize balance on uneven and constantly changing terrain.

Lightspeed 2 features VJ’s famous Superior Contact outsole made of butyl rubber, a compound that offers the best traction on the planet on any terrain.

The upper is a lightweight, breathable and durable one-piece upper that conforms to the foot like a sock, while still offering sufficient support to the runner.

VJ’s Fitlock system provides an optimal fit by keeping the foot close to the arch. It also offers additional protection by protecting the arch from foot impacts.

It is designed to be worn without insoles, but insoles will be shipped with the shoes.
