Lidl launches affordable carbon runners
Lidl’s Crivit Carbon-Plated Trainers arrive in stores Monday, 9 March for just €49.99
Print25 February 2026
As the spring racing season kicks into gear, Lidl Ireland is set to disrupt the high-performance running market with the launch of its first-ever Crivit Carbon-Plated Trainers.
Arriving in the middle aisle on Monday, 9 March, these elite-tier runners will be available for just €49.99—typically 80% cheaper than some of the leading carbon-fibre trainers on the market.
High-tech racing gear
Associated with high performing, professional athletes, or those opting for high-end, premium priced trainers, Lidl’s offering brings high-tech racing gear to the everyday runner, allowing everyone to chase their next PB without the premium price tag.
Designed to enhance speed and efficiency, the trainers focus on two key technical innovations:
-
Carbon Fiber Plate: An internal plate engineered to provide maximum propulsion and energy return, snapping the foot forward with every stride.
-
High-Rebound EVA Sole: A lightweight, ultra-responsive foam that offers superior cushioning and shock absorption, ensuring comfort over long distances.
With major marathons, half marathons and local 10k races fast approaching, the launch is timed to support the Irish running community’s “Spring Season.”
Whether you are a seasoned marathoner or a weekend jogger, the Crivit Carbon-Plated Trainers offer the “super shoe” experience for a fraction of the cost.
Get ready to hit the pavement and find your fast this spring.
The Crivit Carbon-Plated Trainers land in the middle aisle on Monday, 9 March 2026, for just €49.99 in all 234 Lidl stores across the island of Ireland.
