Asics Metafuji Trail 2 Review | Two runners test the speed-focused trail shoe

The Metafuji Trail 2 is a carbon-plated trail shoe built for versatility and speed, specifically over longer sessions. It does that by combining two midsole foams with a full-length plate.

The midsole uses FF Leap, which is Asics' lightest midsole foam to date and is aimed at energy return and forward propulsion. Alongside it is FF Blast Plus, described by Asics as a cushioned but responsive foam that's lighter than the standard FF Blast. Running through the midsole is an X-shaped carbon plate - Its geometry and positioning are intended to improve stability on uneven terrains.
