The Vanish Carbon gives runners a propulsive and well-cushioned road racing option that offers modern performance while staying true to the brand's natural-feeling fit and zero-drop design. This unique racing shoe features an all new foam called EGOPRO which is Altras lightest and most energy-efficient compound available, and embedded in the comfortably bouncy foam is a segmented carbon fiber plate with a fork-like design. The 3-finger carbon plate gives runners a more natural ride that works with the foot while also providing an efficient and snappy toe-off.
- Altra EgoPRO midsole is Altra's lightest weight and most responsive supercritical TPE-based compound that is designed to be resilient and hyper-responsive
- Natural Ride System (NRS) design includes a more natural, foot-shaped last, zero millimeter heel-to-toe drop, and metatarsal-specific shapes in the outsole to assist in proper foot mechanics and allow for more natural foot movement
- Segmented Carbon Fiber Plate embedded in the forefoot and midfoot of the midsole
- Race-Inspired Upper is lightweight, thin, and built to provide a trustworthy lock-down on race day
- Slim Foot Design follows a more narrow design that provides a race-ready fit but keeps the brands signature foot shape through the toe box
- Strategic Rubber provides nice durability and traction while keeping weight at a minimum
