Great Performance Right to the End

In top Marathons like Boston or New York, the best runners quickly separate themselves from the pack. To look at them, you might not see much difference from the others. What makes them great lies below the surface. With the Britax Marathon CS convertible car seat it is also what you do not see at first glance that is the foundation of this product’s success. The components are outstanding.


Britax Marathon CS Car Seat

The high-grade shell of this car seat is made to protect your child in rear and side collisions. The base crumples on impact to lessen shock. The patented energy absorbing tether system prevents undue forward movement in front impact. Also out of view, the strap locks prevent the seat belt for moving in a crash, so the car seat stays exactly where it needs to be. What you do see is the comfort foam lining that also absorbs impact, the padded and secure harness, and the HUGS system which holds your child in place if things get rough. While safety is first, and the Marathon CS excels in the category, the convenience is nice, too. Harness holders keep the straps out of the way while you position your child, then the harness locks and adjusts with one-hand ease. The seat reclines whether facing forward or reverse, to meet the needs of the moment.
