Metaspeed Sky Tokyo

A feather-light carbon super shoe built for runners who get faster by lengthening their stride (more forefoot-dominant mechanics). Stack ~39.5/34.5 mm, 5 mm drop. Dual-foam midsole with FF Turbo+ (PEBA) above a full-length plate and FF Leap (ATPU) below. Motion Wrap 3.0 race upper.

Compared to the Sky Paris, the Tokyo feels lighter, springier, and quicker to “pop.” The FF Leap layer compresses easily, then snaps back fast, while the higher plate position gives a pronounced, propulsive toe-off. It’s lively and efficient from marathon pace through 10K/5K efforts, less enjoyable for easy jogging or very short and fast speedwork. Compared to the Edge Tokyo, reviewers found the Sky is softer and bouncier with a more explosive forefoot; the trade-off is a touch less stability, especially at the heel.

True to size for most. The upper is very breathable and race-light with a thin tongue and grippy laces; lockdown is secure without being harsh. Toe box height/width feel a bit friendlier than older Skys, with slightly more midfoot volume. Overall comfort is high for a racer, but it’s still a minimal race upper.

• Top-tier race speed with a quick, energetic toe-off
• Lighter and snappier than Sky Paris
• Comfortable for a super shoe
• Works across a wide range of fast sessions and race distances
• Standout forefoot propulsion

• Less stable than the Asics Metaspeed Edge Tokyo
• Exposed foam and thin rubber are a durability concern
