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 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.
Women's Distance Elite
After 3 pairs of Gravity I wasn’t thrilled with the color options for my next round so I read some reviews and these really are even better. I thought I was hooked on the Gravity but looks like I’m a Distance Elite gal now. Just back from another delightful 6-7 miles.
So bouncy and light! PR-d on a dirt road marathon with no blisters at the end! I love these shoes so much!
