Description
Probably the fastest trail running shoe in the world
The VJ Lightspeed is an ultralight racing shoe developed together with elite trail runners with the goal to create the fastest trail running shoe in the world. Here it is.
The shoe features our new SuperFOAMance midsole, which is made of hi-tech and ultralight nitrogen infused material that offers extreme cushioning and energy return. This new foam is a modern, supercritical foam that is lighter, more responsive, more comfortable and more propulsive than a traditional EVA foam. Compared to other foams, SuperFOAMance is more durable and does not rip as easily.
The midsole is finished with a branched composite plate which pushes the runner forward as a spring would do. The reason the plate is branched is to offer sideways flexibility for optimizing balance in uneven and everchanging terrain.
The Lightspeed features VJ’s famous Superior Contact -outsole made of our own butyl
rubber compound, offering superior grip in any terrain.
The Lightspeed’s upper is light, breathable and durable one-piece upper that fits on the
foot like a sock, while still offering enough of support for the runner.
VJ’s innovative Fitlock-system offers an optimal fit for the shoe by locking the foot from
the arch. It also offers extra protection by protecting the arch from the impacts the foot
is facing while running.
The shoe is designed to be used without insoles, but insoles will be shipped with the shoes!
SIZE GUIDE
1 Place a sheet of paper on the floor and against a wall.
2 Make sure that you are wearing the same socks as you would typically wear with these kinds of shoes.
3 Wearing these socks, stand on the sheet of paper with your foot perpendicular to the wall and your heel against the wall.
4 Then ask your friend to draw a line just in front of the longest point of your foot. Repeat with both feet and take the longer distance to determine your size.
5 Use a ruler and measure the distance between the wall and the line that you drew to find your size. If you are between sizes, choose the bigger one.
Calculate your own measurements, then select your shoe size.

SHOE FIT SCALE
FITS NARROW 1 2 3 4 5 FITS WIDE
We have graded the fit on all our shoes from 1 to 5 to help you find the perfect fitting shoe. Grade 1 represents our most precise and narrow fit. On the other end of the scale grade, 5 has the widest fit.
The lower number on the scale, the narrower the fit ensures minimal movement of the foot which is essential when running fast on technical terrain. The shoes with the higher numbers on the scale will suit people with wider feet and those who want extra comfort. Wider fit is usually preferred on longer runs and races because feet tend to swell during longer distances.
