Mount To Coast – P1 – $160.00
Adding to their lineup of daily trainers and race day shoes aimed at ultra-distance athletes, Mount to Coast now adds a supportive trainer with this, the P1.
The same PEBA and Nitrogen mixed midsole provides the lightweight midsole cushioning that retains a smooth and responsive feel with the added 3D-Archrail. This flexible structure runs from the midfoot into the ball of the foot and helps reduce overpronation. The result is a very smooth riding shoe that provides excellent support without feeling intrusive. The shoe retains other features that make it easy to simply pull on and go: a circular knit upper for a seamless fit, adaptive lacing that hugs the midfoot and a dual-zone insole for additional arch support and heel stability.
Available in the UK soon, Mount to Coast is one of the most exciting and innovative new brands right now.

UYN – Synapsis – £179.00
This Italian brand is best known for its garments created using a circular knitting process, which reduces seams and improves fit and breathability. The upper of the shoe uses UYN’s innovative construction techniques with a partial double-layer sock design, with the instep and toe-box being single-layer and the toe, sides and heel double-layered. This provides a great fit, reduces the chance of blisters and optimises breathability.
Cushioning comes from a Freebound heel design: a cantilever-type construction that compresses both horizontally and vertically to absorb impact and remain balanced. Additional stability and energy return are optimised by the brand’s HALO (Heel Active Ligament Outerframe), which essentially wraps around the heel of the foot and in conjunction with a full-length chassis, enhances energy return.
The shoe is packed with technology and certainly showcases what the brand is capable of and potentially more exciting models in the months ahead.
