Product Details<\/h2>\n

A carbon fiber shoe plate<\/strong> sits inside the midsole and acts like a spring \u2014 it bends under your weight during footstrike and snaps back during toe-off, returning stored energy that foam alone cannot provide. That is the physics behind every “super shoe” on the marathon start line.<\/p>\n

Spoon Curve & Zoned Stiffness<\/h3>\n

The plate is not flat \u2014 it has a spoon-shaped curve at the forefoot that creates a rolling effect, reducing the ankle extension angle at push-off. Stiffness is tuned by layup: stiffer midfoot for torsion control, more flexible at the metatarsal bend line so the foot articulates naturally. At 8\u201312 grams per pair, the plate adds less weight than the lace tips.<\/p>\n

OEM for Shoe Brands<\/h3>\n

We produce plates for running shoe brands, orthopedic insert makers, and sports performance labs. Custom curvature, stiffness, and sizing \u2014 we prototype from your foot scan data or last dimensions. From 500 pairs for a limited drop to 50,000 for full production.<\/p>\n
