When you need to step up your game, and take your time down a but, what better boost can there be than the absolutely perfect pair of sprint shoes? There really isn't much that can give you that extra leg up like a new pair of sprint shoes, which is why we've gathered just a few of the very best around. If you're looking to finish in record speed, and top that old PR, the last thing you need to be thinking about is your shoes. Limit your distractions, hone your focus, and perform at your highest level with only the very best. We want to make sure you're taking on the track at your tip top shape, and doing it in serious style, nonetheless! Before you strap on those rusty, old spikes, make sure you check out these few awesome options we've gathered for you!
We're kicking things off with a runner's favorite: Asics. Their 'Prima Diva Sprint Shoe' boasts form-fitting uppers, high-tech spike plates (specifically made for distances up to four-hundred meters), and a seriously responsive platform from The Prime Dive Sprint for those of you who love long jump and hurdles. Its synthetic and mesh upper make for a seriously flexible, yet durable fit. We love the removable pins, so you can adjust the interior to your own, personal maximum in comfort and shape. Plus, because of these removable pins, you'll be able to replace worn elements and customize the configuration that best suits you. Weighing in at just 5.3 ounces, we promise you won't even feel these puppies on your feet--and, isn't that the best? Toss on your Thermafit shirt and Puma shorts, and you'll be all set to sprint at your very best in these awesome Asics. (For those of you with problematic knees, Asics tend to be extra supportive, so you may want to check into this, or other options, by them.)

Now that we've taken on a traditional look and brans, let's move something for the slightly more progressive bunch. Vibram's 'Fivefingers Sprint Shoes' boast the groundbreaking new five-finger (or toe!) feel. Boasting hook and loop closures at the instep and heel, your feet will be both cozy and comfortable, while retaining the sensation of running barefoot. Constructed of polyamide fabric for a seriously well-fitting feel, the TC1 rubber sole offers enough flexibility for either the track or the yoga/pilates room--talk about options! So, you can throw on your favorite pair of yoga pants and cotton tank top to hit the gym, or toss on those running shorts and really hit the ground running.
If you can appreciate the ingenuity offered by Vibram, but are really in the mood for something slightly more traditional, and the Asics didn't do it for you, not to worry! Adidas' 'Adistar Sprint Women's Shoe' will take your time to the next level! These synthetic shoes boast mesh lining along the sides for maximum breathability and flexibility. Available in black and orange (with silver accents), these rounded toe sprint shoes come in as a classic sprint shoe, specifically made for women. So, throw on your black spandex and Oakley sunglasses, and you'll be ready to take on the track in serious style!
So, no matter your personal take: whether you want a traditional, progressive, or middle of the road sprint shoe, we've got a little something for everyone.
