HELPFUL HINTS TO FIND THE BEST TRACK SPIKE
                       ...FOR YOU

WEIGHT ISN'T AS IMPORTANT AS YOU THINK!
When choosing the proper Track Spike for your specific event, weight is not the only issue nor is it always the most critical. Weight (or lack of it) becomes more important as the race distance increases. However, some of the heaviest Track Spikes are for Sprint Distance.
A stiffer (heavier) plate helps lock out the ankle, thereby focusing all forward motion in the more explosive muscles, the soleus, quads and hamstrings.


COLOR IS NOT IMPORTANT AT ALL.
A Track Spike is a Tool. As long as your singlet and your shorts match, that's your uniform. If you want to be as fast as your potential, then use a Track Spike that is the best fit for you among the best Track Spikes for your events. Setting color as criteria for your shoe is akin to building a house and matching the hammer to the drapes.


BUY THE BRAND THAT FITS
The Swoosh doesn't make you go faster, nor does any logo. The fastest Track Spike is the one that fits your foot the best and is best designed for your event.
