RAD SYNTH: run, then keep training
Run first, then wall balls. Catch your breath and go again. The RAD SYNTH running shoes combine lightweight cushioning with a grippy rubber outsole. That makes them an option for daily runs and workouts with running intervals. They also belong on your shortlist for HYROX training that combines running and stations. Your heart rate may have a few comments.
Cushioning with a response
The SwellFoam™ midsole combines supercritical EVA with TPEE. R.A.D designed it to balance cushioning, responsiveness and durability for regular training. That makes the SYNTH a shoe for today’s run and the next one. Because a daily trainer needs to be ready when your training plan suddenly starts looking suspiciously ambitious.
Find your own rhythm
Start easy, settle into your pace and pick things up when you feel like it. The SYNTH is designed for a range of road running speeds. It has a 6 mm drop, describing the height difference between heel and forefoot. The heel stack is 38 mm. Your route and pace remain entirely your business.
Light and breathable
The engineered mesh upper combines low weight with strategically placed ventilation. This allows airflow through the material while you run. R.A.D lists 232 g for one shoe in US men’s size 9. That is a model weight with a specific reference size. It leaves you free to focus on breathing, rhythm and the next corner.
Grip for runs and workouts
The textured rubber outsole uses a herringbone tread to support traction while running. When your workout pairs runs with wall balls or other stations, the transitions count too. That makes the SYNTH an option for running-focused hybrid training. Its low weight and cushioning keep the running sections central to the way this shoe is built.
Two colours, one daily trainer
Choose GOTH BLACK or OFF WHITE. Both versions of the RAD SYNTH running shoes share the same model construction, combining textile, synthetic materials, SwellFoam™ and rubber. Pick the colour you want at the start line of your daily route. The black one runs dark, the white one runs light. Both still require you to do the running.

R.A.D® – Training shoes with a mind of their own
Heavy barbells. Wild colors. And a crew that gets louder in the final round. R.A.D® brings that energy together: functional training shoes, bold design and a whole lot of love for the scene. SwellFoam™ and supportive constructions meet shared workouts, film projects and events that get you sweating. It fits affenhand® like chalk on a pull-up bar.
From the gym to Miami – right at the heart of the scene
R.A.D was founded by Ben Massey, a former British CrossFit athlete. The connection between training and distinctive style continues to shape the brand. The first R.A.D ONE launched in Miami in 2022: a shoe for the many different demands of the gym. That first model evolved into the ONE V2. Running and skate shoes have since joined the range. According to R.A.D, the gym remains at its heart.
Performance with personality
R.A.D describes its community through a drive to perform, freedom of expression and an underdog spirit. You can see it in the shoes: unexpected colors, distinctive shapes and a design that finds its own place between the training floor and the skate scene. That combination is what draws us in. You can train hard and still look like you have a personality outside your training plan.
Acid Athletics: Get the community involved
Acid Athletics puts that attitude into practice. One edition featured shuttle runs, 50 wall balls and a finish on a SkiErg or another cardio machine. The workout was scalable, and winners at participating gyms were set to receive three pairs of R.A.D training shoes. An event that brings people together on their own gym floor. Your gym, your people and a shared reason to question your life choices for ten minutes.
Tin Slingers: Move iron together
Rogue x R.A.D Tin Slingers serves up another helping of gym culture. The published team challenge combines the Echo Bike with clean & jerks at increasing weights. Alongside prizes for strong teams, the format recognizes participation across entire gyms: a large number of submitted scores can earn equipment and shoes for the community. We like that showing up together has value in its own right. Cheering sets the atmosphere; moving iron is on the program.
A bigger stage, a closer look
The connection with Rogue is growing too: R.A.D was announced as the official footwear partner of the Rogue Invitational for 2026 and 2027. The partnership includes collaborative footwear projects and builds on events such as Tin Slingers. That connection to the training community now extends to a major stage for CrossFit and strongman.
To get to know the people behind it all, explore the R.A.D TAPES. The film archive follows training preparations by athletes including Laura Horvath and Danielle Brandon, features community meetups and gives Danielle her own documentary, Danielle Brandon Energy. Stories like these put a face to the brand. Behind the performances are people with a journey, a crew and a serious amount of hard work.
Your starting point at affenhand®: the ONE V2
R.A.D starts here with the R.A.D ONE V2. Its WAVE construction and TPU heel clip support your stance; SwellFoam™ provides responsive cushioning for dynamic rounds. Add a flexible forefoot and a wraparound rubber guard for rope climbs. Lift steady. Spring through your WOD. Choose Black & Gum, Graff Pink, Flat White or 3X White and use the model-specific size guide. The post-workout facial expression is up to you.
