ACT™ - Running C.1
ACT™ Running C.1 — Designed and Developed by MG
The ACT™ running C.1 is the result of a complete design and development process led by MG.
From concept to production, the project reflects a structured approach to footwear where design and development are fully integrated.
From Concept to Product
At MG Monsieur Germain, footwear is developed as a system, combining creative direction, product design, material sourcing and development follow-up.
The ACT™ running C.1 embodies this approach. Not a concept, but a product built within real-world constraints and carried through to production.
Performance-Driven Design
Designed for running, the shoe is built around movement, efficiency and everyday usability.
Cushioning powered by SupraFoam with injected nitrogen
65% energy return
Lightweight construction — 243g (EU 42)
Rocker geometry for a natural forward motion
4mm drop (30mm / 34mm stack)
The C.1 is designed for daily runs, combining comfort, responsiveness and lightness.
Design Approach
Function First — performance defines the structure
Clarity of Form — reduced, controlled design language
Material Precision — selected for performance and durability
Design + Development
This project highlights MG’s ability to manage the full process, ensuring consistency from concept to final product, and alignment between design intent and industrial reality.
