Craft CTM Ultra Carbon 2 Women's Running Shoes

The CTM Ultra Carbon is a premium running shoe designed for athletes who demand nothing but the best.

Athletic Mesh Upper

The upper is constructed from an athletic mesh material that encases each foot in breathable comfort. The mesh works incredibly hard to allow air to fully permeate the entire upper, providing you with a constant supply of fresh, cool air while simultaneously forcing out hot, muggy air. The mesh is also extremely comfortable next to the foot decreasing distractions and irritation that can occur on longer runs. Additionally, the upper offers synthetic overlays that wrap around the foot for increased comfort and support. The overlays work with the eyelets to conform around the foot and provide a better and more structural integrity. The synthetic overlays further work alongside an internal heel counter that works incredibly hard to provide a locked-in fit. The shoes combine a tight and secure fit around the foot with an anatomic toe box. The result is a running shoe that fits like a glove for maximum power transmission during intense racing and at the same time allows your toes to spread out for optimal comfort and a more natural stride.

Ultra Platform Midsole

Ultra Platform is the ultra-lightweight foundation on which Craft build their Ultra series running shoes. The platform includes a perfect balance between stack height, drop and foot angle to enable runners to keep form as effortlessly as possible, which is essential when you want to run fast during a sustained period of time. The main component of the Ultra Platform midsole is UD Foam, which is a lightweight and durable midsole foam that delivers consistent propulsion over a long period of time. This EVA-based foam adds a unique chemical compound for enhanced rebound and durability. This high-quality midsole foam is fast, light and long-lasting. The midsole also features the highly innovative Ultra Carbon Plate. Made of carefully sourced carbon fibre, this thin plate works almost like a trampoline, offering best-in-class energy return. In addition, the tuned carbon plate comes with a precision split, allowing the big toe to press independently on the medial side of the plate and the other toes on the lateral side - which creates torsion to provide ultra-rebound on varying surfaces and angles.

Ultra Trac Outsole

The Ultra Trac outsole is a 3-piece lugged traction rubber outsole capable on roads or light trail surfaces and in varying climate conditions. Both landing and toe-off traction are enhanced with engineered lug shape and configuration, and grip on varied surfaces is elevated with Craft's specially formulated rubber compound. This outsole is designed to be lightweight, flexible and to provide versatile traction solutions while maintaining excellent durability.
