Built to go beyond human limits.
This is the Phil Gore World Record Autopilot — a limited-edition release honouring Phil’s astonishing feat at the 2025 Backyard Ultra, where he ran 119 laps at Dead Cow Gully, totalling 797.3 km over nearly five days — the longest continuous ultra ever recorded.
Engineered with the same trusted performance platform as the original Autopilot, this shoe embodies relentless endurance, supreme comfort, and eco-conscious craftsmanship. It’s designed for runners who understand that “enough” is never enough.
From your longest training blocks to everyday miles, the World Record Autopilot delivers the perfect balance of cushioning, stability, and flow. A wide toe box allows natural movement, while the energised midsole and smooth rocker propel you forward — whether you’re running 10 kilometres or 700.
This shoe represents the pursuit of impossible distances — and the spirit of a runner who redefined them.
Limited numbers available. Once sold out, they’re gone forever.
