“Regardless, it’s what’s under your foot, not around it, that gets interesting. The entire midsole is a 3D-printed unit like a thick insole that can be slipped in and out for three different purposes. The least interesting of these is the “Ultralight Core”—a relatively conventional all-foam unit that provides moderate support and is handy for sprinting and other running where you just want the lightest experience underfoot. The “Performance Core” and “Stability Core” are truly special as they’re 3D-printed silicon mesh midsoles of differing density and can be printed according to your exact weight and height. The stability core is noticeably stiffer and denser, whereas the “Performance Core” is printed with a wider mesh making it more bouncy underfoot.”
