Hi, this is Brian Beckstead, co-founder of Ultra Footwear

We're talking about Ultra's new racing shoes. We're going to start with the Vanish Carbon 2
0:10
A couple updates from the original Vanish Carbon. Very similar EGO Pro, but what we have done is we've found a way to get the compound 17
0:19
lighter weight with more energy return. Pretty awesome combination. We've also added 3 millimeters of cushion, so the stack height now goes up to 36 millimeters
0:29
The carbon plate is now full length, it previously was three-quarter length
0:34
Then we've added some additional flex grooves up at the forefoot. The shoe still is zero drop
0:40
It is incredibly light, incredibly fast, and very efficient. We are really excited for this update of a super shoe
0:47
We're excited to take a lot of this technology into the trail
0:51
Now we're going to be introducing the Montblanc Carbon. The Montblanc is really our pinnacle trail racing shoe, and it now is going to be coming
0:59
in a carbon version. Vibram Mega Grip Light Base, incredibly light and grippy
1:05
Great traction. You're looking at a 30 millimeter overall stack height. Now we've done something pretty cool here
1:11
We call it a bathtub construction, where you've got your EGO Max midsole that goes up the side
1:17
but it's empty underneath until we fill it up with a Carbotex full length carbon plate
1:24
Then we put that EGO Pro that I just described inside the shoe
1:29
Against the foot and the majority of the midsole is made up of our super lightweight nitrogen
1:33
infused super foam for energy return, for cushioning, and of course for durability as well
1:43
This shoe is incredibly lightweight, incredibly fast. It's going to get you out there and run your ultra marathons or just your regular trail
1:49
running as fast as possible. Both of these shoes launch March 1st of 2024 and come in at $260
