Popular Running Shoe Comparisons
The Mount to Coast R1 and Mount to Coast C1 are two ultra running shoes from the Hong Kong-based brand that are built for different uses. The C1 is built for long-distance training and is heavier and built on a taller platform. The R1 is built for racing and is lighter and lower stacked. Both feature the same dual lacing system that allows you to easily loosen the upper around the forefoot to accommodate foot swelling during long runs.
