The Brooks Hyperion Elite 5 is a neutral road running shoe made for half marathon and full marathon racing. It has medium cushioning and an 8mm heel drop.
The midsole uses DNA GOLD foam, a PEBA-based material that is Brooks' lightest and most responsive foam. A SpeedVault+ carbon plate sits in the midsole and is tuned to each shoe size for stiffness and propulsion. The SpeedTack rubber outsole adds lightweight traction.
The upper has a minimalist race-day fit. It includes a TPU wrap and silicone lace sheaths for a second-skin feel.
