The 361° Flame 4 MIX Running Shoes are professional racing and training shoes, mainly featuring carbon plate propulsion and cushioning performance, suitable for marathon training and physical test scenarios.
The 361° Flame 4 MIX Running Shoes are positioned as an entry-level carbon plate running shoes that cater to both racing and daily training. They are designed for both casual and advanced runners. The core strengths of these shoes include a flexible carbon plate design, highly resilient midsole, breathable and durable upper, and adaptability to a wide range of scenarios.
The shoes feature a full-length flexible carbon plate (with 50% carbon fiber content) that has moderate rigidity. It provides propulsion while also reducing the difficulty for beginners to adapt.
Combined with aliphatic ETPU foam material, the midsole offers a balanced cushioning and rebound. During racing, when landing on the forefoot, the carbon plate provides noticeable assistance (increased step frequency at a pace of 4:10). After an easy run, when landing on the heel, the midsole softens to absorb impact (no knee soreness after running 5 km at a pace of 5:30).
The midsole technology ensures a comfortable and efficient running experience, whether you are sprinting or doing a recovery run.
Upper Design: Breathability and Fit
The upper is made of a single layer of engineered mesh/Jersey material, which offers excellent breathability. Running 10 km in 30°C weather, your feet will not feel sticky.
The last is slightly wider, accommodating wider feet (similar to the widened treatment of PG7 and Asphalt Dominator) without squeezing. For those with narrower feet, the fit can be adjusted using the laces.
Additional padding on the tongue and heel counter enhances comfort and stability.
The upper design ensures that your feet stay comfortable and secure throughout your run, regardless of the weather or distance.
Outsole Performance: Durability and Traction
The outsole is made of durable rubber with a segmented tread pattern, suitable for various surfaces such as flat roads, uphill slopes, wet synthetic tracks, and dry concrete.
After a 200 km test, the outsole shows no significant wear, proving its durability.
The outsole performance ensures that you have reliable traction and long-lasting wear, no matter where your run takes you.
