This isn't an ad for a shoe. It's for a feeling. Introducing Flex-26. The incredible new shoe from Fastrak. The shoe that feels so much a part of you it seems only natural to run longer. Run farther than ever before. The reasons? Extra-flexibility under forefoot. Support for your Achilles while you cover progressively greater distances. And an exclusive Fastrak design tested and approved by Dr. Lowell Scott Weil, the widely known sports podiatrist and podiatric surgeon, and supervisor of our Sports Advisory Staff. Flex-26. It's one hell of a shoe. For one heavenly feeling. See the Flex-26 and other Fastrak styles at your nearby Fastrak dealer.
