During The Running Event, held in early December 2023 in Austin (USA), the American brand Brooks presented its main innovations for the coming season, highlighting the new Brooks Hyperion Max 2

The Brooks Hyperion Max 2 will be one of the fastest running shoe of the brand and will stand out for its great versatility and versatility.

What are the expectations for the new Brooks Hyperion Max 2?

Brooks will promote the fastest running shoes in its catalog, including the new Brooks Hyperion Max 2, in order to offer alternatives to the fastest runners in the peloton.

The upper will feature a very light and breathable mesh but at the same time will present light padding in the heel to provide extra comfort and protection during our workouts or competitions.

The upper features a minimalist tongue that helps us to adjust the foot inside the shoe and the lacing system with traditional flat laces with a very nice touch.

The midsole of the shoe has one of the most outstanding cushioning technologies of the brand, the DNA Flash v2 that provides good cushioning and softness in each of our strides.

The shoe does not have a carbon plate, but includes a Pebax plate that provides great reactivity, less than the carbon plate, but with greater adaptability by a greater profile of runners.

Ideal runner profile for the Brooks Hyperion Max 2

The Brooks Hyperion Max 2 will be one of the most versatile and versatile shoes within the group of faster shoes, so it is designed for a wide range of profiles of fast runners and can be used both in competitions and in fast training.

Light to medium weight runners (maximum 75 kilos) with good running technique will find this shoe to be one of their favorite candidates.

In terms of race paces and distances, we will be able to use them to run fast without problems, but they will also perform well in medium paces and in all types of distances, from the shortest to the longest distances.

Technical specifications of the Brooks Hyperion Max 2

This is one of the fastest shoes of the brand, so its weight is not excessively high, in particular it weighs 260 grams in the men's version (size 95 US).

It has an idealdrop for fast running, 6 mm, with 36 mm profiles in the back and 30 mm in the front of the shoe.

All in all, this is a shoe that will delight the fastest runners, but still the carbon plate shoes are demanding in terms of features and running technique.

The Brooks Hyperion Max 2 will be available on the market from June 2024 and will have a starting price of approximately 180 euros.
