Stefano Massimi's debut
The undisputed star is Stefano Massimi , a national-level runner from the Marche region and the newest member of the Fessura team. In 2025, Stefano was the first Italian to cross the finish line of the Stramilano , with a time of 1:04:51 . Massimi has chosen to join a project that fully reflects his vision of running and performance.
This is why he decided to debut with the brand at the Stracivitanova , bringing all his experience and determination to the route. His race was extraordinary: he crossed the finish line in third place , completing the 21 km in 1 hour and 8 minutes .
This result isn't just a personal victory, but represents the perfect synergy between athlete and brand, demonstrating that Fessura is serious about road running as well. Stefano is the first concrete step in a broader project, designed to build a team of runners who share passion, dedication, and commitment alongside the brand.
Italian design and performance
Alongside Stefano is the Race 01 , the ultra-high-performance Italian sneaker designed for those who want to push every limit. Slot Technology optimizes every step, ensuring propulsion and comfort in both the most demanding races and the longest workouts. Integrated with the SUPERCRITICAL EVA midsole and carbon plate , it balances cushioning, lightness, and energy efficiency, increasing stride efficiency.
The tear-resistant nylon upper combines essential design and functionality, reducing every element to a minimum to ensure precision and control. Race 01 is more than just a shoe: it's a tool designed to accompany the athlete kilometer after kilometer, eliminating any obstacle between them and maximum performance.
The Fessura vision: from trail to road
This road debut marks a key step in Fessura's broader project. The brand aims to transform every surface, from dirt trails to city streets, into a stage where technology, design, and performance meet.
With Race 01 and Stefano Massimi, Fessura begins 2026 with a clear goal: to establish itself in competitive road running and build a community of athletes united by a passion for running, innovation, and the constant pursuit of excellence. We aim to reach new milestones, because we are energy in motion .
