Shoes can have 1 Carbon plate and Stack height under 40mm, Higher Stack can also enhance Performance, thats why they have Rules. Doesnt Matter anyway because These Rules are only for elites
You can still race in them but if you are looking to win prize money or u are one of the few elite runs then you can’t. They would technically not count towards any world records. So for runners like you and me use them to your heart’s content!
For elite racing events (elite runners only), they will not let you race on race day if your wearing illegal running shoes. They will tell you to swap to a different shoe, if not, they will escort you out. Depending on the club/event some may have a zero tolerance policy. Meaning you not only get escorted out but your membership could be suspended.
I think they just made running shoes, and if you just happens to use it, it's deemed illegal, it's not like they want to make a shoe for you to race in and break the rules at the same time.
Results in a more sepsonsive shoe. Though, it only applies for race day, and all of these shoes mentioned are trying shoes, not meant for racing. So, they aren't illegal for there purpose.
Why is there a rule against certain types of shoes? It’s not like, it’s exclusive for only a few runners. Everyone has access to it and it doesn’t change the runners biology at all.

Only banned for elites. Casual runners can wear whatever they like.
Not true. Rules of competition. Will you get caught no. Would a complaint be upheld and a DQ given is someone raises it - yes
@@kierenkd incorrect
@@JackD87 I am correct
@@kierenkd I’m afraid you are not, my friend.
@@JackD87 I am correct. Rule 5
Only matters if you're an elite 😂
…and the companies aren’t ‘ignoring the rules and making them anyway’ they’re a great training tool.
Facts!!
But if they come after you, just run
😭👌 Such an underrated comment
Unless you are an elite runner, no race is going to disqualify any runner wearing any of these shoes.
Its only illegal for pros, if you an Amateur runner, Nonne will care
I doubt any high school xc or track team will care 😂
@@That_Ramdomfor track races its a Bad Idea to Run in any of These Shoes, you will probably get dq
@@eliasderechte16 maybe but high school won't care.
I was a 8.30 mins per mile runner untill I brought the Adidas prime x and the following day I was 4 min per mile runner, crazy!
Lol slow. I got down to sub 2 min miles.
@@ajtam05 🍻
@@ajtam05 you must have the world record then, since only 6 people have gone sub 3:45
@MacArthur really? That was my easy pace tho?
@@ajtam05 bro faster than Usain Bolt that’s crazy
Small price to pay for a 300 PFT
Nah I know you still getting a 250 on it
Waiting on 100 mm stack height.
Sc trainers are awesome on the legs specially for the long runs
Superblast great training shoe
Would not race in them for sure
Why?
@dnegel9546 yeah forgot why I would totally now.m my fav shoe still
The only true illegal shoes that never saw production were the Nike Viperflys for 100m.
The prime X is just fun. I love mine
I have arthritis anyway. I can't run.
Not with that attitude
Have the Prime X and Superblast and wouldn’t use either for a marathon. Many better faster, lighter options.
Love my Prime X Strung!!
OH NO!!! CALL THE RUNNING POLICE!!! 🚨🚨🚨🚔🚔🚔
Running with a high stack height shoe: ILLEGAL
Running with a performance enhancing carbon plate: Perfectly legal
Shoes can have 1 Carbon plate and Stack height under 40mm, Higher Stack can also enhance Performance, thats why they have Rules. Doesnt Matter anyway because These Rules are only for elites
I have the prime X . I'm not an elite runner just an old man who still runs 200+ miles a month. 🏃♂️🏃♂️🏃♂️
You wont be kick out of any race for use those, but if you get podium then that will be an invalid result
You can still race in them but if you are looking to win prize money or u are one of the few elite runs then you can’t. They would technically not count towards any world records. So for runners like you and me use them to your heart’s content!
i wish nike would’ve just made their original illegal running shoe
The Vyper-something?
Most of these shoes are slower than shoes with 40mm
Ed Bud said if you use bigger size than the sample size then the stack height can go over 40mm
Yeah the 40mm rule applies for Shoes in the Sample size
@@eliasderechte16 So outside of the sample it can be 50mm?
@@kieranbrennan9690 yes ofcorse, they have to scale them out so yeah
@@eliasderechte16 Ahhh they can make many loopholes from this
@@kieranbrennan9690 Not really, the Sample size is Always a us men size 9, so i dont think they can
Illegal running shoes are fine no matter if its a public or elite racing events. You’re just booted out from the podium.

I didn't get disqualified
Disqualified as in you can’t “officially” win the race. You can still run in/finish the race, nobody’s going to check your shoes
@@Mondoman8282 i'm never going to win
@@thespecialone7632 But you're the special one!
The rules is only for elite atheltes, Dont know how fast you are though, so that could maybe be why
@@alexandernielsen7040 I'm only elite at procrastinating
The only way these shoes will get you dq'd if you are an elite and winning money.
Yes Karen you can wear these on your treadmill
They’re only banned for elites
Ed Bud said if you use bigger size than the sample size then the stack height can go over 40mm
@@macewindex564 yeah only the sample size has to be under 40mm. But obviously the other sizes must be proportionally bigger
I love all those shoes
You forgot the viperfly
Only illegal for top athletes. Nobody cares if I wear these and run a 5 hr marathon.
Everyone forgets that Nike Tempo Next % started all this....and for mid-packers, NOBODY CARES
I think they just made running shoes, and if you just happens to use it, it's deemed illegal, it's not like they want to make a shoe for you to race in and break the rules at the same time.
If it must be less, then exactly 40mm is banned?
39.9999 is fine but 40mm not, so yes
Why does that matter. Like, what does it change for the runner?
Results in a more sepsonsive shoe. Though, it only applies for race day, and all of these shoes mentioned are trying shoes, not meant for racing. So, they aren't illegal for there purpose.
Higher stack and carbon plates can return more energy to the runner
Less fatigue, so a faster time.
Now gotta have one 😂😅
Why is there a rule against certain types of shoes? It’s not like, it’s exclusive for only a few runners. Everyone has access to it and it doesn’t change the runners biology at all.
All these sneakers TH-camrs act like they’re elite 😂😂😂😂
Should be fine for a local 5k with 200 participants tho right?
Yeah, i dont think they have price Money or any Elite Starters because These Rules only apply to elites and people who win prize Money
Thats only for elite atheltes on road
Its 25 mil om track
Anybody know if they good on feet? Cause my brooks ghost 15s are pretty damn good.
How about NB more v4
Nike air force one ?
Ill never understand it
carbon fiber lol
Not everyone races
As long as no electric power in shoe.. All shoes are legal..
Nonsense...
