How we compare

No brand pays for a place.

Where our numbers come from, and what they can and cannot tell you.

Where the numbers come from

The Carbon Race Sheet collects the specifications that the brands publish: weight, plate, the race distances the shoe is made for, and the price. Weight is for a men's US 9, the size most brands use. Prices are ranges, because they change by shop, by country and over time.

What we do not claim

We do not lab-test every shoe. The sheet lets you compare like with like from the official specs. Our films add what runners and testers report about how a shoe feels and lasts.

How often we update

We add new racers when they launch and mark older models when a successor is out, for example the Alphafly 3 now that the Alphafly 4 is announced. Spot something wrong? Email us and we fix it.

Money and independence

RunnersVibe is paid by sponsors of our videos and our newsletter. That never buys a place in the sheet, a higher position, or a kinder opinion. Every sponsored video, email or placement is labelled as sponsored.
