ANTA Saker 3 RC — All-Terrain Competition Trail Running Shoes

The ANTA Saker 3 RC was engineered specifically for the 2026 Hong Kong 100 — one of Asia's most prestigious trail races and the opening event of the World Trail Majors circuit. HK100's course defines this shoe's design brief: endless concrete paving, hard rock, technical staircases, and long runnable sections where sustained energy return and muscular protection decide the race — not lug depth. The answer is a dual-nitrogen midsole system, a T700 carbon anti-torsion plate, and Vibram's full three-technology outsole stack, packaged at 267g. As trail running expert Sergio Mayayo wrote live from HK100: "a trail super shoe can make sense too… as long as it comes with a commanding chassis and an outsole that does not negotiate."
