description Craft CTM Ultra 2 Overview
The Craft CTM Ultra 2 is a trail running shoe manufactured by the Swedish sportswear brand Craft, specifically engineered for long-distance running and ultramarathons. It features a highly cushioned Px Foam midsole to absorb impact over extended periods of time. The shoe utilizes a durable Vibram Megagrip outsole to provide traction across wet, dry, and uneven trail conditions. It is targeted at endurance athletes requiring maximum underfoot protection and grip during prolonged off-road activities.
help Craft CTM Ultra 2 FAQ
Is the Craft CTM Ultra 2 meant for technical mountain trails?
It is primarily a cushioned ultra-distance shoe for runnable trails and mixed surfaces. Its relatively high, road-influenced platform is less precise on steep, rocky terrain than a lower and more aggressively lugged shoe.
Can the CTM Ultra 2 be used on pavement?
Yes. Craft designed it as a road-to-trail model, and its Px Foam cushioning makes short paved approaches more comfortable than they would be in a deeply lugged fell-running shoe.
How does CTM Ultra 2 differ from CTM Ultra Carbon 2?
The Ultra 2 emphasizes cushioning without the carbon plate found in the Ultra Carbon 2. That makes it the more conventional choice for runners who do not want a plated trail shoe.
Does the Craft CTM Ultra 2 fit narrow feet?
Craft's CTM Ultra line is often described as having a performance-oriented hold rather than an especially broad forefoot. Runners who use wide sizes in Altra or Topo Athletic should try it on before committing to an ultramarathon.
