Women's Competition Running Shoes
At BeUrban, you'll find women's racing shoes from Nike, Asics, Hoka, Brooks, New Balance, Adidas, Saucony and Puma, designed to help you run faster in 10K races, half marathons and marathons. Most feature carbon plates and the latest foam technologies, and many have a women's-specific fit.
The top choices for our female runners
- Nike Vaporfly and Alphafly: the benchmark marathon shoes, with ZoomX foam and a carbon plate.
- Asics Metaspeed Sky and Edge: the Sky is designed for runners who increase their stride length, while the Edge is for those who increase their cadence.
- Hoka Rocket X: very stable for a carbon-plated shoe. A good option for your first supershoe.
- Brooks Hyperion Elite and Puma Velocity Nitro: alternatives with plenty of bounce.
Sky or Edge? How to find out which type of runner you are
If your stride lengthens when you speed up, you're a stride runner and the Metaspeed Sky will suit you better. If you increase your step rate instead, you're a cadence runner and the Edge is a better fit. We'll help you find out in store.
Frequently asked questions
Is there a difference between the women's and men's versions?
In many models, the women's version has a narrower fit at the heel and weighs slightly less. Others are unisex and only differ in size.
When should I first wear my racing shoes?
Wear them in a couple of quality training runs of 10–15 km first. Never wear them for the first time on race day.
Are they worth it for an amateur runner?
If you're looking to set a personal best, yes: they reduce muscle fatigue and help you maintain your pace. To finish a race without pressure, a well-cushioned training shoe will also do the job.
