Newton Running Men's Distance

What Makes Newton Unique?


Men's Distance side view

Enhanced Cushion

The new midsole formulation of next gen NRG™ and Hytrel® foams combine to deliver outstanding impact absorption and rebound compared to other forms, while improving on the amazing responsiveness the Distance is most known for.

Elevated Comfort

The highly breathable open weave mesh is designed specifically to the anatomical structure of a man's foot to optimize the interaction between foot and shoe and make you more comfortable, secure, and positioned for the best possible performance.

Evolved Performance

The XPS plating system is an evolution to our Action Reaction Technology™, the secret sauce powering Newton. Generated by the active movement of the lugs in/out of the midsole, it creates a springy cushioning system that provides a quicker bounce back with less energy loss than typical running shoes.

Great shoes !

Better than Ever, as Always

The Distance line is constantly improving. They have been my go-to for years. In case it helps, the red/white/blue colorway has the new upper that was featured in the Distance+, while the blue colorway has the older style of upper. I like them both. The main difference seems to be that the laces are positioned farther from the toes in the former, which can be nice.

Great for easy runs and workouts alike. Responsive, fast, light, natural.

You will FLY in these!

First of all, Boston Marathon colors are my favorite love the blue and gold. Excellent spring/pop in run in them. I feel faster wearing them. Excellent cushion all around for support. Very comfortable toe box, plenty of room. Highly recommend!

Pretty good

I really liked the responsiveness and upper of the distance plus. I just tried out the new distance 12 and it had the same feel from below, but the upper is the old distance upper and not the new upper of the distance plus. The distance upper is ok, but the plus upper was great. I was disappointed, but the shoe is still pretty good. I like the blue color. Im hoping Newton releases a new distance plus in 2023.

Since I started using quite a few newton models since 2015, it just gets better and better, as I switched to other models. Im so happy and satisfied w/ this brand compared from other brands Ive had in the past.
