Salomon
S/Lab Phantasm 3
Salomon's carbon-plated PEBA marathon racer with an aero, gaiter-style upper. Firmer and snappier than most super shoes, it rewards heel strikers at half and full marathon pace.
What's new: Gets a much lighter aerodynamic upper and a firmer, snappier PEBA-based optiFOAM+ midsole with more forefoot foam than the Phantasm 2.

True to size
Generous toebox; one tester found it slightly long, and the gaiter-style upper is fiddly to get on and lace.
What the critics say
- Snappy, efficient PEBA and carbon ride
- Wide, stable forefoot platform
- Very light
- Hard to get on, with laces hidden behind a fabric cover
- Firmer than most super shoes and less lively for midfoot strikers
