XTEP, a renowned sports brand, has officially launched its newest racing shoe, the 160X 6.0 series, as part of its running shoe lineup. Emphasizing propulsion and shock absorption as key performance features, the shoe ensures that runners feel both fast and stable. At the recent Paris Olympics, the 160X 6.0 PRO showcased its exceptional performance, setting a new benchmark for Chinese athlete Wu Xiangdong with China's fastest Olympic marathon finish time of 2 hours 12 minutes 34 seconds. This debut marked the shoe's international launch and highlighted its impressive performance in the racing scene.
The XTep 160X 6.0 Marathon Men's Running Shoes feature a "light and tough technology" single-layer, lightweight mesh material made by XTep, which is more densely textured than the 160X 6.0, with breathability holes distributed more widely and evenly, making it more breathable.The large XTep LOGO on the upper is a heat-pressed design that can lock down the forefoot during high-intensity running, enhancing torsional rigidity and increasing running stability.The tongue is made of high-elastic Lycra material, slightly thicker, with foam padding inside, enhancing the comfort of the forefoot.
Midsole Technology:
The XTep 160X 6.0 Marathon Men's Running Shoes are equipped with XTEP ACE lightweight and responsive technology, featuring a newly upgraded PISA supercritical shot-peened foaming technology, which is currently the most advanced type of foaming technology. It has a lower density, allowing for a higher rebound rate even with minimal compression, providing runners with excellent foot feel and performance. Due to the reduced density, there is also a significant weight reduction.
The midsole of the 160X 6.0 PRO is nearly 20% lighter than the previous generation, with a single shoe weighing only about 205g for size 43 (some say 203g), and only 179g for size 40, minimizing the burden on runners during long-distance running.
Carbon Plate Technology:
The XTep 160X 6.0 Marathon Men's Running Shoes feature an embedded GT700 super fiber gold carbon plate. Compared to the carbon plate of the 160X 6.0, there have been changes in rigidity, weight, and shape. The weight has been reduced, with a forked design in the forefoot and a hollowed-out design in the heel.
Unlike ordinary carbon fiber plates, the GT700 has added two layers of PI polyimide fibers to the T700 carbon plate material, significantly increasing the toughness due to the added PI polyimide fibers, effectively solving the occasional carbon plate breakage issues that were common in the previous two generations after long mileage.
