The ERKE Zhijing 3.0 is the brand's flagship carbon-plated racing shoe, built on a Chi supercritical foam midsole with a full-length spoon-shaped carbon plate in an efficient racing geometry: 30mm forefoot / 38mm heel with an 8mm drop. At about 220 g it is extremely light and delivers excellent efficiency on race day. The upper is a lightweight single-layer mesh, highly breathable with precise fit. The CPU outsole gives excellent wet-weather grip. At a reference price of about NT$3,000 it is one of the best value domestically made carbon racers. It suits races from 10 km to marathon, and is especially recommended for runners targeting under 3:30. The Zhijing line is ERKE's highest racing tier, and the Pro version goes further with a PEBA supercritical midsole.
