What Makes Newton Unique?

Next Generation Innovation
The next evolution of Newton technology, the Catalyst features our new NRG Foam‚Ñ¢ that works in harmony with the Newtonium infused Action Reaction Technology and articulated plating to deliver dynamically enhanced cushioning and energy return that excels far beyond other typical foam core shoes.

Superior Sustainably
Designed with tomorrow in mind, the Catalyst is made of extremely durable recycled materials and infused with EcoPure® to help reduce the amount of waste and plastics in our environment. An average shoe can take over 40 years to biodegrade, Newton is committed to crafting our product to make a difference against plastic pollution, and the Catalyst is specially treated to break down into nontoxic biomass & biogas up to 400% quicker in landfills while not compromising quality or performance in any way. Recycled + biodegradable + vegan = better.

Advanced Action-Reaction Technology
The secret to Newton shoes is our patented Action-Reaction Technology - a responsive trampoline-like cushioning system that absorbs more impact and loses less energy than traditional foam shoes, now with Newtonium infused cushion. The Catalyst's technology package is tuned to maximize comfort and performance for movement in all directions.


What Our Runners Think
I run in the Distance but I work in the hospital wearing my Catalyst. They are very comfortable and easy to put on and take off during long shifts. I’ve gotten numerous compliments from other hospital employees and patients as they like the appearance of this shoe. I like the lightness and comfort.
Great customer service!
amazing everyday shoe
i wear it at home while i do chores and walk the dogs. have zero back pain
I tried the Catalyst for the first time and loved them. I use them for CrossFit classes and running errands after gym. They are so lightweight and they have built in air conditioning for your feet with the tiny mesh holes all over. I paired my black Catalyst with the black socks. I love how responsive they feel while running. I put them through a tough CrossFit workout at LAF and OTF! I was not sure how they would compare to my normal Gravity but I love how light weight they are an how they look too. Catalyst is another Newton winner so great job Newton. You can actually feel the air moving around while wearing them which is pretty cool.
I love them for the gym! They run very small! I wear a 8 1/2 in the Fate and I should have gone up at least a half size larger in the Catalyst.
