FAQs
What distances are these shoes best suited for?
The FuelCell SuperComp Pacer is ideal for distances from 5k up to marathon length, particularly for runners seeking speed.
What is the main benefit of the Energy Arc technology?
Energy Arc technology combines a carbon fiber plate with a heel cutout to enhance the foam's deformability, resulting in a greater range of motion for the plate and a more propulsive feel.
How does the FuelCell midsole foam contribute to performance?
FuelCell midsole foam provides a firm, responsive, and propulsive ride, designed to help drive you forward efficiently.
Is this shoe suitable for daily training or just racing?
While versatile, the shoe's lightweight and minimalist design, along with its focus on speed, makes it particularly well-suited for racing and high-intensity speed workouts rather than high-mileage daily training for most runners.
What is the weight of the shoe?
The shoe weighs approximately 157 grams (5.5 oz).
How should I clean my FuelCell SuperComp Pacer trainers?
Clean the exterior with a soft brush or damp cloth. Avoid harsh detergents and never machine wash or dry them. Air dry them naturally.
Can I wear these shoes if I prefer a lot of cushioning?
These shoes feature a low stack height and a firm FuelCell foam for a snappy ground feel. Runners who prefer maximum cushioning might find them less suitable.
Troubleshooting
Shoes feel too tight or uncomfortable.
Adjust the lacing system to find a more comfortable tension. Ensure you are wearing appropriate running socks. Consider if the size is correct for your foot.
Reduced responsiveness or 'snappy' feel.
Ensure the carbon plate is properly aligned and not obstructed. Check for excessive wear, especially on the midsole foam, which can diminish its performance over time.
Upper feels abrasive or causes irritation.
Ensure the shoe is properly laced to minimize movement. Break in the shoes gradually. If irritation persists, the shoe may not be the best fit for your foot type.
Difficulty with heel lockdown.
Utilize the lacing system to create a snugger fit around the ankle and heel. Ensure the tongue is positioned correctly. The thinner collar is designed for a precise fit; ensure it's not bunched.
