Mount to Coast R1
The debut shoe from a road-ultra brand with world-record credentials: a PEBA-blend midsole, dual-zone lacing that adapts to foot swell, and a balanced not-soft-not-firm ride. Best for runners logging very long steady road miles with some uptempo mixed in. The exposed-foam outsole makes an audible clicking some testers could not stand.
