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 have several Newtons and really wanted an all black pair. These were exactly what I was looking for. I did order a size up since many said they run small and they definitely do. They are by far one of the most comfortable Newtons I have! Love them!
These shoes were comfortable the first day I tried them on . No breaking in, like I have been wearing them forever. My running days are over but still do a fast walk on my treadmill 5 days a week and also weightlifting and stretching. These shoes are a part of my body doing this workout. How I wish we had shoes like this in the seventies, could have saved myself a lot of injuries. I never knew about your brand until I ran across a new box of your shoes at a thrift store.. They were pink and yellow, not my favorite color but they were never worn. That was over six years ago and I wore them everytime I worked out! They molded to my feet instantly. The reason I purchased these was I felt it was time to get a black pair. But believe it or not my pink and yellow Newtons are still in great shape. What a great company and what great shoes. Another plus is your customer service. I had to do an exchange for a smaller size and never had such an easy time exchanging.
Very comfortable very fast
I have been on the hunt for a pair of shoes for years. I’ve had bad knees due to powerlifting competitions and heavy lifting but I love running. Not only are these shoes fantastic for running but they’re also extremely comfortable and lightweight for a casual walk. My family tried on my pair and got a pair of their own because of how lightweight and comfortable they are. I HIGHLY recommend these shoes and I also won’t be turning back to any other brand. The science behind them is even better! Bye bye bad knees! No more aches! Thank you Newton.
I bought these shoes for everyday wear. The shoes are very comfortable.
