The Asics Metaspeed Sky Paris Running Shoes are built for one purpose: speed. When you lace them up, you'll immediately notice the responsive feel, thanks to the integrated carbon plate that works in harmony with the FF TURBO™ PLUS cushioning. This combination creates a trampoline-like effect, providing significant energy return that propels you forward, reducing fatigue over longer distances.
Race Day: These shoes truly shine during competitive events, from 10k races to full marathons, helping you maintain pace and conserve energy.
Tempo Runs: For those mid-week speed sessions, the Metaspeed Sky Paris helps you hit and hold faster paces with greater ease.
Long Intervals: The propulsive nature of the shoe makes it excellent for demanding interval workouts, encouraging efficient form.
Personal Bests: If you're targeting a new personal record, these shoes are engineered to give you every possible advantage.
The ASICSGRIP™ outsole ensures reliable traction even when pushing the pace on varied surfaces, while the MOTION WRAP™ 2.0 upper keeps your feet securely and comfortably contained, preventing hot spots or irritation during intense efforts. Remember, while they offer comfort, their primary design is for performance, encouraging a fast, efficient stride pattern.
Lacing: Ensure a snug, comfortable fit without over-tightening. Experiment with different lacing techniques if you experience pressure points or heel slippage.
Break-In: While race shoes often feel good from the start, consider a few shorter runs or walks to get accustomed to their unique feel before a big race or long training session. This helps your feet and legs adapt to the carbon plate's stiffness and cushioning.

Proper care will extend the life and maintain the performance of your Metaspeed Sky Paris shoes.
Cleaning:
Do NOT machine wash or machine dry. This can damage the materials, adhesives, and structural integrity.
Gently brush off loose dirt with a soft brush (e.g., old toothbrush).
Use a mild soap (like dish soap) mixed with cool water and a soft cloth or sponge to spot clean the upper and outsole.
For the interior, you can gently wipe with a damp cloth.
Drying:
Always air dry your shoes at room temperature, away from direct sunlight or heat sources (like radiators or hair dryers), which can warp materials.
Stuff crumpled newspaper or paper towels inside to absorb moisture and help maintain shape.
Storage: Store your shoes in a cool, dry place. Avoid leaving them in direct sunlight or extreme temperatures for extended periods.
Inserts: Remove and air out insoles periodically to prevent odor buildup.
