Raidlight brings us a shoe in which they wanted to prioritize lightness, slimming 25gr compared to its previous version, maintaining its drop of 6mm and stack height of 19/25mm. They also wanted these shoes designed for ultras, to be comfortable, and with great dynamism. It keeps in the midsole its injected EVA plate, and also its sole with D + Grip technology, which gave such a good grip in the previous version.
One of the big changes is in the upper, with Matryx technology. Which is much more resistant to break, combining high strength threads with technical threads. Includes 19 Kevlar threads. All this should make it a mesh very resistant to break.

The cushioning comes from the injected EVA plate. That should give us great cushioning, as well as great rebound and dynamism. Also EVA insole, with absorption plates placed in three well-differentiated support areas. That in this case they will be the ones with the greatest impact during the tread.
The height and drop, does not vary in this new version of the shoe. With a height to the ground in its front of 19mm and in its rear part of 25mm, it keeps us the drop of 6mm.

The arrangement of the cleats is differentiated, to improve traction, depending on their shape, location and depth. Removing the cleats from the middle area, where we have less impact, to gain lightness.
RAIDLIGHT RESPONSIV ULTRA 3.0 MATRYX: CONCLUSIONS
Shoes born for long running. It is the shoe of the brand designed for ultras, which with which improves a little the previous version, we will have on our feet some very interesting shoes.
