The R1 is our first race shoe, built for multi-day road ultramarathon. Dual-zone ZeroSag™ inserts, co-developed with BASF, hold their shape deep into a long effort rather than degrading under repeated loading, while the LightCELL™ midsole base keeps the shoe light and lively underfoot.

GOFLOW™ midsole geometry guides the transition from heel to toe, and the double-layered jacquard upper, made with 40% recycled polyester, breathes through long hours on the road. The TUNEDFIT™ dual lacing system tunes the forefoot and midfoot separately, so you can lock the midfoot without cramping a forefoot that has swollen over the distance.

Mount to Coast publish foot length separately for the men's and women's ranges, and the two differ by about 5 mm at the same EU size. Measure your foot, then read the foot length column for the range you are buying. If you are between sizes, choose the larger size for better comfort.

Measuring your foot

You will need a piece of paper that fits your foot and a writing instrument to mark your foot's length. Having someone to help you with this could also be beneficial.

  1. On a hard floor, put a piece of paper against a wall.
  2. Stand on the paper in socks you would normally wear with this type of shoe.
  3. Ensure the back of your heel is against the wall and that you're placing your weight evenly on your foot.
  4. Ask someone to make a mark on the paper at the end of your longest toe.
  5. Measure the distance from the edge of the paper that touched the wall where your heel was to the mark at your longest toe. That is the length of your foot.
  6. Repeat this process on your other foot.
  7. It's common to have one foot bigger than the other, so make sure you measure both feet. Pick your shoe size based on the length of your longer foot.

R1 Women

The top bragworthy features

Tune In, Stride Out

In the relentless pursuit of distance, ultrarunners often encounter swollen feet. With the R1, your toes can relax and enjoy the ride thanks to Mount to Coast's wide toe box and broad platform. Whilst the TUNEDFIT(TM) Dual Lacing System offers customisable fit for the forefoot and midfoot separately.

Experience the Consistency

To create the smoothest possible ride, Mount to Coast looked to the automotive industry to create ZeroSag(TM), their groundbreaking midsole insert co-developed with BASF. Durable, comfortable and offering impeccable energy return at any temperature. ZeroSag(TM) guarantees extraordinary cushioning on the longest runs.

The Road to Enlightenment

LightCELL(TM) Mount to Coasts proprietary midsole base material starts as a unique hybrid compound before being charged with pure nitrogen to create a supercritical foam. The result is a material that is 50 percent lighter than EVA, whilst offering 45 percent more energy return!
