ANTA Saker Speed RC — Long-Distance Elite Carbon Trail Racing Shoes

Built for 100 Miles. Not Just the First 10.
The ANTA Saker Speed RC is ANTA's flagship long-distance trail racing shoe — the weapon of choice for elite runners competing at HK100, Gaoligong Ultra, UTSS, and UTMB-level events. Released September 2025, it solves the core problem of long-distance trail racing: how do you maintain road super shoe propulsion and energy return across 50–100km of mountain terrain without the shoe breaking down or the runner breaking apart?
The answer is a three-system stack — nitrogen midsole, T700 carbon plate, triple Vibram outsole — all in a 255g package that weighs less than most road racing flats
