Phenomenal shoes. I’ve put 70 miles on them so far and they are some of my favorite shoes that I’ve tried in 2026 (and I’ve tried dozens). Great job!

Two foams. One ride. The Ventus 2 is built around a dual-layer midsole that does two things at once: CQT EXTREM3 supercritical PEBA foam delivers a light, snappy energy return from the moment you land, while Primo foam underneath provides plush, long-distance cushioning that keeps hard miles feeling effortless. Wrapped in a new micro-elastic mesh upper made with recycled yarn and a redesigned tongue-lockdown structure, it's a neutral trainer engineered for runners who want to go long without slowing down. One degree beyond what a long-distance shoe should feel like.
The Ventus 2 runs on a dual-layer midsole that works in sequence. CQT EXTREM3, a supercritical PEBA foam, sits closest to your foot and delivers a fast, light, snappy feel underfoot with a 75% energy return rate. Beneath it, Primo supercritical foam absorbs the rest, delivering a plush, luxurious cushioning experience that keeps your legs fresher deeper into the run. Two foams. Two jobs. One remarkably smooth ride from first mile to last.
The eco-breathable upper is built from lightweight engineered mesh with a new micro-elastic construction, using recycled yarn to deliver sustained ventilation over extended mileage. Streamlined perforations and a dot-patterned vamp enhance foot-shoe integration and flexibility. A unified progressive dot design across the mesh, logo, and heel creates a cohesive look while helping stabilize the foot at speed. Reflective 3M at the heel adds visibility when the run starts before sunrise.
The Comfort Pressure-Free Tongue combines two breathable, ultra-soft materials in an ankle-contoured design that eliminates top-foot pressure during dorsiflexion and prevents tongue slippage deep into long runs. A reinforced Midfoot Lockdown Structure keeps your foot dialed in, boosting stability and delivering a secure, locked-in feel. A Premium Heel Collar Lining with smooth, plush foam padding completes the fit from step-in to final stride.
GekkoGrip forefoot rubber grips the ground and propels you forward at toe-off. At the rear, High Abrasion Rubber Technology (H.A.R.T.) provides tough, durable grip in the highest-wear ground contact zones. A dedicated Rear Foot Platform Geometry ensures maximum cushioning upon heel strike, protecting your body from the accumulated impact of long-distance running. Fast on top. Protected underneath.
Comfort Foam Insoles featuring open-cell Ortholite technology deliver long-lasting underfoot comfort with excellent moisture management and high breathability, so your feet stay dry and fresh through extended wear. Made with 20% recycled content, they're built with performance and sustainability in mind.
