EQUUS is Swift's race shoe. Built for one thing: helping you break your PR.
At the heart of EQUUS is a real carbon midfoot plate — pure carbon, sitting directly under your arch. Pure carbon is stiffer and more propulsive than a hybrid plate. It stores energy on every landing and releases it at every toe-off, giving you the springy, efficient turnover that makes your goal pace feel sustainable mile after mile. Independent testers described the feeling as "bouncing off marshmallows." That's what real carbon does.
At 7.2oz it's the lightest shoe in the Swift lineup. The 8mm drop positions your foot for the efficient midfoot strike that fast running demands. The open-weave mesh keeps you cool when your effort isn't. The fit is snug and race-precise — locked down exactly where it needs to be.
Save your trainers for the easy days. EQUUS is for when the clock is running.
