A new competition shoe designed for long technical outings and ultras.
The Race ULTRA completes our range of competitive trail shoes. It will help you to perform during your ultras on technical, mountainous and stony terrain. Take to the slopes with confidence, thanks to its cushioning, powerful grip and effective support.
A high-performance shoe tested on prestigious ultras
To guarantee a shoe dedicated to ultra-trailers and performance seekers, we have selected testers with an ITRA rating of over 700 (national level). The result? The Race ULTRA has already taken on prestigious races such as the Alesia trail, the Festa Trail, the Ultra Pas du Diable (with a podium finish on the 120 km), the Transkarukera and the famous Diagonale des Fous! A true champion's shoe!
Lightweight and comfortable to help you go the distance
If you want to make a time on an ultra distance, every item of clothing or equipment you wear has to be light. That's why the Race ULTRA has been designed to give runners even greater lightness and dynamism in competition, without compromising comfort. The shoe's high level of cushioning means you can run longer without worrying about your feet.
Still as grippy as ever:
Our testers were unanimous in their verdict: the Race ULTRA running shoe delivers powerful grip on any surface. Spaced crampons prevent mud from accumulating, saving you that dreaded fear of slipping on muddy descents.
Improved rubber soles provide good grip for running on smooth, wet or slippery rocks.
Slightly wider forefoot for greater comfort
Over long distances, on chaotic terrain or with altitude, feet tend to swell. To keep running and maintain freedom of movement without compressing the toes, the forefoot of the Race ULTRA trail running shoe is slightly widened.
Our runners advise you to recover swollen feet after an ultra:
- Alternate between hot and cold footbaths to activate blood circulation.
- Massage the calves to accelerate venous return.
A shoe that stands up to the Diagonale des Fous
Thierry, our product manager Evadict and former French trail champion, wore the Race ULTRA trail competition shoes on the entire Diagonale des Fous 2019 for 33 hours." It's a high-performance and comfortable shoe, in fact I did the race with just one pair when many ultra-trailers change their shoes during their race."
A shoe that adapts to all stride types!
Thanks to our K-Only concept, exclusive to Decathlon running shoe brands, get a shoe perfectly adapted to your stride thanks to a denser foam located under the first metatarsal. Say goodbye to the risk of injury and improve your competitive performance!
Performance-oriented design
Our design team has given the Race ULTRA trail shoe an aggressive look look, with clearly visible studs on the sides and front of the shoe. The shoe's precise volume provides better support, making it ideal for ultra runners.
This shoe offers a dynamic relaunch, so you can go faster and faster. Take on the most technical trails!
Shoelaces that are ready when you are!
Whether you're competing in trail races or out and about, it's essential not to have to worry about your laces. The Race ULTRA features a new, thinner front lace that widens at the lacing. The laces tighten more easily and stay perfectly in place with just one knot.
Clever tip: To avoid any discomfort when running, store your laces in the pocket on the tongue.
Before the quest for summits, the quest for the right shoe!
To be comfortable and avoid injury, it's essential to select the right size for your Race ULTRA trail shoe. Check the space between your heel and the back of the shoe, as well as the stop of your foot on downhill runs. Don't hesitate to jog and check that there's no rubbing. Now you're ready to conquer the biggest Ultras!
