We’re living in the golden age of running shoes, with innovation at every turn. But can a brand known primarily for apparel shake up the racing shoe scene with just its second-ever release? Honestly, I would’ve said, “No way.” But then I met my new best friend—the Tracksmith Eliot Racer.
Every detail of this shoe feels intentional, from its crisp, preppy design to its innovative removable midsole. It’s sleek, fast, and effortlessly refined.
The ride is smooth, the speed is electric, and the comfort is dialed in. I don’t know if it’s possible to run with my pinkie up… but in this shoe, I just might try.
Who Is It Good For?
Who is the Tracksmith Eliot Racer a good fit for?
Let’s break it down by some common categories:
- Wide Feet: Yes! Super accommodating fit for all runners.
- Heavier Runners:Same. Plush cushioning and structure.
- Long Runs:The shoe’s bread and butter.
- Front of the Pack: Runners of all abilities can find joy in this shoe. Those at the front will probably prefer it as a high-end trainer, while those in the middle and back can rock it for race day.
The Eliot Racer is a rare hare, blending speed and comfort in a way few racing shoes do….
