Yeezy Foam Runner 'Carbon'
The Yeezy Foam Runner debuted in 2020 as one of the most polarising and experimental designs in the Yeezy catalogue, featuring a futuristic clog-like shape carved from a single piece of foam. Originally teased by Kanye West years before release, the Foam Runner quickly moved from controversial to coveted, becoming one of the most sought-after casual silhouettes in streetwear. Its unique organic form and sustainable materials set it apart from any traditional sneaker or slide.
The Carbon colourway wraps the entire one-piece silhouette in a dark charcoal grey that sits between the lighter Sand and the near-black Onyx. The uniform tone across the sculpted foam body gives the shoe a stealthy, low-profile appearance while still allowing the organic contours and ventilation ports to define the shape. It is a versatile middle ground for those who want something darker than neutral but not fully blacked out.
Injected EVA foam construction for a lightweight, flexible, and durable one-piece build. Sculpted heel designed to cradle the back of the foot for secure slip-on wear. Strategically mapped ventilation ports throughout the vamp and side panels for enhanced breathability. Textured footbed offers grip and comfort without the need for a separate insole. Durable rubber outsole provides reliable traction on wet and dry surfaces.
Fit: Runs true to size. We recommend ordering your usual UK size. For a roomier fit, consider going up half a size.

The Yeezy Foam Runner Carbon is ideal for anyone who wants a dark, understated Foam Runner without going fully black. It suits streetwear enthusiasts looking for a versatile warm-weather slip-on that bridges the gap between neutral and blacked-out colourways. The extended size range up to UK 13 also makes it accessible for those who struggle to find larger sizes in the Foam Runner.
The Carbon Foam Runner works as a neutral dark base for relaxed warm-weather outfits. It pairs well with joggers, cargo shorts, or linen trousers in black, grey, or earth tones for a clean, understated look.
The Carbon sits between the Sand and the Onyx in the Foam Runner colourway lineup, offering a dark charcoal option for those who find the Onyx too close to black and the Sand too light. Compared to the Yeezy Slide in similar dark tones, the Foam Runner provides more coverage, a sculptural aesthetic, and better ventilation through its carved port design. Against foam clogs like the Crocs Classic, the Foam Runner delivers a more fashion-forward silhouette at a higher price point.
The Foam Runner generally runs true to size. We recommend ordering your usual UK size. If you prefer a roomier fit or plan to wear socks, consider going up half a size as the one-piece foam construction does not stretch significantly.
The Carbon is a dark charcoal grey that is noticeably lighter than the near-black Onyx. In direct sunlight the Carbon reads as a medium-dark grey, while the Onyx appears close to black. Both share the same construction and fit.
Yes, the Foam Runner is water-friendly thanks to its closed-cell foam construction and multiple ventilation ports that allow water to drain. It works well as a poolside, beach, or shower shoe and dries quickly after exposure to water.
Simply rinse with warm water and mild soap, using a soft cloth or brush for any stubborn marks. Allow to air dry naturally away from direct heat or sunlight, as excessive heat can warp the foam material.
