Shoes were tested in a random sequence over 5-minute trials on visit 1 (7 trials at 16\u00a0km\u00b7h<jats:sup>\u22121<\/jats:sup>; 5-min rest between trials) and in the reverse\/mirrored order on visit 2. Metabolic data were collected and averaged across visits. <jats:italic><jats:bold>Results<\/jats:bold>:<\/jats:italic> There were significant differences across footwear conditions for oxygen consumption (<jats:italic>F<\/jats:italic>\u2009=\u200913.046; <jats:italic>P<\/jats:italic>\u2009&lt;\u2009.001) and energy expenditure (<jats:italic>F<\/jats:italic>\u2009=\u200914.710; <jats:italic>P<\/jats:italic>\u2009&lt;\u2009.001). Oxygen consumption (in milliliters\u00a0per kilogram\u00a0per minute) in both the first AFT spike (49.1 [1.7]; <jats:italic>P<\/jats:italic>\u2009&lt;\u2009.001; <jats:italic>d<\/jats:italic><jats:sub><jats:italic>z<\/jats:italic><\/jats:sub>\u2009=\u20092.1) and the other AFT spike (49.3 [1.7]; <jats:italic>P<\/jats:italic>\u2009&lt;\u2009.001; <jats:italic>d<\/jats:italic><jats:sub><jats:italic>z<\/jats:italic><\/jats:sub>\u2009=\u20091.7) was significantly lower than the control spike (50.2 [1.6]), which represented a 2.1% (1.0%) and 1.8% (1.0%) improvement in RE, respectively, for the AFT spikes. When comparing the subjects\u2019 most economic shoe by oxygen consumption (49.0 [1.5]) against their most economic spike (49.0 [1.8]), there were no statistical differences (<jats:italic>P<\/jats:italic>\u2009=\u2009.82). Similar statistical conclusions were made when comparing energy expenditure (in watts\u00a0per kilogram). <jats:italic><jats:bold>Conclusions<\/jats:bold>:<\/jats:italic> AFT track spikes improved RE \u223c2% relative to a traditional spike. Despite their heavier mass, AFT shoes resulted in similar RE as AFT spikes. This could make the AFT shoe an attractive option for longer track races, particularly in National Collegiate Athletic Association and high school athletics, where there are no stack-height rules.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1123\/ijspp.2023-0372","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2024,5,30]],"date-time":"2024-05-30T17:38:22Z","timestamp":1717090702000},"page":"705-711","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":15,"title":["Comparative Effects of Advanced Footwear Technology in Track Spikes and Road-Racing Shoes on Running Economy"],"prefix":"10.1123","volume":"19","author":[{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0003-0565-3310","authenticated-orcid":true,"given":"Dustin P.","family":"Joubert","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Kinesiology, St. Edward\u2019s University, Austin, TX, USA"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Garrett M.","family":"Oehlert","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Kinesiology and Health Science, Stephen F.
