Born To Perform
The Elite is a true homage to the purist racing heritage of Newton. A modified version of our minimalistic racer initially only available to our elite race teams, it’s become a favorite for those looking for spike-like performance but want enough structure and cushion for fast miles.
Elevated Comfort
Designed to maximize comfort and security, the ultra breathable upper with an offset lacing system ensures an optimal fit and security to make sure you get the most from every stride.
Dynamic Performance
Newton’s technological edge lies in our proprietary Action-Reaction Technology™. The Elite is the purest incarnation of this, powered by the active movement of the 4 lugs it creates a trampoline-like effect that absorbs impact better and provides a quicker bounce back with less energy loss than other running shoes.
What Our Runners Think
I’ve worn the Distance shoes for nearly 12 years. My first pair was the Distance U. My favorites of all time. Ordered 3 pair. I’ve tried other styles but always come back to the Distance with four lugs. I’m not a runner but I walk and find these the most comfortable.
I am a lifetime newton fan, but this is the first time when each stride results in super loud squeak, no matter what the weather. Disappointed!
I love the new shoes. I did not like my last
couple pairs of regular Distance. These show much kess qear even though I have been doing some serious mileage. The 4 lugs seem better for me. They feel lighter and springier. I love these. Off to Honolulu Marathon in a week and a half with them.
Newtons is my running shoe… I do a lot of middle distance. Like all my previous Newtons I can pretty much put these on straight out of the box and go for a run. They are super lightweight and pretty 🤩 I have wide, relatively flat feet and am so used to Newtons, most other runners feel heavy.
