The American brand Brooks returns strong thanks to the release of one of its most developed models. We are talking about the new Brooks Hyperion Max 2, a shoe of proven quality that arrives, in this second edition, with the same essence but going up a step in terms of quality.

The Brooks Hyperion Max 2 is one of the fastest running shoes in the brand's catalog and stands out for its great versatility in all kinds of situations.

Main characteristics and new features of the Brooks Hyperion Max 2

Brooks returns by enhancing the fastest running shoes in its catalog, among which is the new Brooks Hyperion Max 2, with the aim of offering alternatives to the fastest in the peloton.

The upper has 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.

In addition, within this upper, we highlight the minimalist tongue that helps us to adjust the foot inside the shoe and the lacing system with traditional flat laces with a very nice feel.

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 step.

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

Ideal runner profile of the Brooks Hyperion Max 2

The Brooks Hyperion Max 2 is one of the most versatile shoes in 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.

Those runners of light, even medium weight (maximum 75 kilos) with a good running technique will find in this shoe one of their favorite candidates. A model that will also provide a more natural stride thanks to a light drop of just 6 millimeters.

Recommended distances for the Brooks Hyperion Max 2

In terms of race paces and distances, we will be able to use them to run fast without problems, with paces below 4:15 or 4:00 min/km, but they will also perform well in medium paces and in all types of distances, from the shortest to the longest distances.

We are facing one of the fastest running shoes for men and women of the brand with what its weight is not excessively high, specifically weighs 260 grams and also has a drop, previously mentioned, ideal for fast running, 6 mm, with profiles of 36 mm 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 with their characteristics and running technique.
