adidas Supernova Performance Review

Many running events were delayed or suspended over the past special year, and because of this, many people were also restrained from running outdoors and some even gave up exercising. However, because of the marathon, many people have begun to resume running to better prepare for the match. And one of the basic conditions for preparing running games is to have a pair of good running shoes. So here I bring the adidas Supernova to share some of its information with you.

Firstly, with regard to its appearance, there are a number of different colorways available. And this one I picked is the fluorescent pink which is said by many buyers to be coquettish when it is compared with other colorways. But on the other hand, the pink one, from my perspective, is brighter,  more stylish and eye-catching. And most importantly, I think it will make me more confident when I am running for some challenging matches. But this is just kind of psychological effect.

 

The vamp is made of woven breathable mesh cloth and in the different areas  of the vamp are fabric with different density. For the front vamp, there is the mesh cloth with larger air holes which ensure sufficient air permeability. What’s more, the stitching on the vamp can to a great extent improve the vamp support and comfort.

The three black stripes at the side vamp is always that iconic and eye-catching, which forms a contrast to the pink vamp. They are distinguishing and can increase support though, they also reduce air permeability of the vamp. But this is so negligible that I am willing to write it off.

The tongue adopts an all-in-one design, which can avoid the displacement of the tongue during our the movement. It also has a laminated structure, which can make the shoes hug our feet better, but its air permeability is at the mean time affected to some extent. On the upper part of the vamp is the plastic logo which may rub our ankles during running.

 

The midsole adopts the  BOUNCE which is a little lighter than the Boost and provides a lot of feedback during our running, making us more comfortable when exercising .

 

At the heel of the shoes is added with BOOST material, which is relatively light and elastic. Actually, when I am exercising, I can clearly feel the rebound from  underfoot, especially from the heel.

And for the sole, it is made of anti-slipping and wear-resistant rubber, which can effectively improve the durability of the sole. At the same time, the grid anti-skid pattern design adopted, which is mentioned earlier, can increase the anti-slipping performance. The pattern of the sole is hallowed, which can provide good grip for us in different kinds of roads.

 

As a pair of running shoes, this adidas Supernova is in fact superior considering its overall performances. And as a pair of running shoes, adidas Supernova is also outstanding in terms of its weight. When we are running oblivious of ourselves, it surely won’t bring burden for us and will only be of great help.

Overall:

To summarize, Adidas Supernova’s overall performance is good. The full-foot Bounce and the rear Boost help save energy during running; the outsole can then offer traction to help us run faster. All in all, this is an ideal model for short daily runs, trainings and matches.

UA HOVR Phantom 2 Performance Review

When talking about the midsole cushioning, the first thing that comes to my mind is the classic Nike Zoom X , Asics’s Gel cushioning and  Adidas’s Boost. Then speaking of Under Armour, what do you think of? Actually,  not much is known about its running shoe technology by a lot of people. But as a matter of fact, way back in 2018, Under Armour has launched its new midsole cushioning technology, the UA HOVR. And in August 2020, the UA Hovr Phantom with the new tech has also come to the second version. That is the UA HOVR Phantom 2 .

The UA HOVR Phantom 2 I received here is the entirely black one. It looks quite pure and at the same time very cool. And the first glance at the shoe has made me obsess with it. But if you don’t like this colorway, there are as well other options for you. There are indeed the red, orange, green, white one which are all very fashionable and can very well match our daily dressings.

In terms of the vamp, it is made of an integrated fabric material coupled with the elastic collar, the whole designed like a sock . And thanks to this design, the shoe has a very excellent wrapping and it wraps my feet nicely, and I feel very comfortable wearing the shoes. Simply put, it hugs my feet tightly, thus offering me an excellent stability. What is even better is that the shoe wears so comfortably that I can even wear it without wearing socks.

For a pair of  running shoes, its air permeability is also an important performance index. And for a pair of running shoes to stand out, its air permeability should be excellent. Very chunky as the UA Hovr Phantom 2 looks, it is  actually quite breathable. It has many holes that extend from the toe to the tongue, providing enough ventilation. And of course, in order to ensure adequate stability, the middle and back of the shoe is made of a high-density, inelastic material, which connects naturally the two parts.

The UA HOVR Phantom 2’s biggest upgrade from the previous version is the full-foot UA HOVR cushioning system, which is comprised of an outsole support pad, the UA HOVR foamed sole, the molded midsole veneer, the all-rubber outsole with a powerful grid pattern. Therefore, with the help of this tech, you can experience a rebound  quite different from that brought by other brands. The feedback during running is obvious and sufficient. And as for the outsole, it offers excellent grip and wear resistance, which actually makes the shoes strong and durable.

With respect to the  SpeedForm 2.0 insole which is not mentioned earlier, it is also comfortable as well as adding breathability. Besides, you might have noticed the collar at the heel which makes it easier for me to put on and take off the shoes .

Overall:

What needs to be mentioned here is that since there is no traditional shoe tongue, you’d better tie your shoelaces very tightly before running. Overall, the UA Hovr Phantom 2 is good for jogging and casual training. And if you happen to be considering purchasing the shoes, chances are that you’ll be obsessed with it whose synonyms are comfortable, stable and durable.

Adidas adizero adios Pro Performance Review

With Nike’s NeXT % with thick carbon plates taking up a favorable foothold in all kinds of marathons,  brands are also starting to use carbon plates as a research and development focus for running shoes. But anyway, as the saying goes, “One man’ s meat is another man’s poison.” ; therefore, no matter how good a pair of running shoe is, it is the most suitable one  that is just the best one. And before making a purchase, one is highly recommended to have a try.

The Adidas adizero adios Pro I got here seems to be glowing like the sun. It is the bright fluorescent yellow which I think is more energetic than the fluorescent pink. And you are sure to be the most eye-catching guy wearing the shoes.

What is new here is that there are some innovations in its design.  Adidas has changed its routine design. That is the three stripes has changed from the small ones to almost covering the side vamp, which is quite visually shocking.

The knitted net vamp of the shoes is very thin and there are big gaps between the fibers, which ensures the air ventilation and heat emission during running. And the tongue is directly connected to the lining and sole on both sides, so we won’t be affected by the movement of the tongue when exercising.

A single shoe weighs only 246 grams which is relatively light and brings no burden to our feet. Besides, the heel of the shoe is 39.6mm thick while the forefoot is 29.6mm, with a height difference of 10mm.

Before this Adidas adizero adios Pro, I have also tried the  adizero pro, the boston 9 and the adios 5 before. And they are all bouncy enough that I could obviously feel the feedback underfoot. But this Adidas adizero adios Pro is no less inferior in this respect. It also offers me a very nice cushioning performance.

The Adios Pro looks very similar to the Adizero Pro, which was launched almost around the same time, but the biggest difference between the two lies in the thickness of the two shoes’ soles. And on the other hand, the Adizero Pro also uses Adidas’ traditional LightStrike Boost midsole, while the Adios Pro uses the latest LightStrikePro midsole, which is much lighter and more flexible.

From an objective perspective, this Adios Pro  isn’t like the Nike Fly 3 I copped before; the former actually feels softer and more elastic. On top of the above performances, the shoes also have a nice wrapping. During my testing it, the shoe wraps my feet very well and my feet are also firmly fixed inside.

While the sole differs significantly from other running shoes in that there is no lumpy grains and looks quite smooth, tests on plastic grounds and asphalt roads showed that the anti-slipping performance of shoes is not inferior to other running shoes. However, when the shoes  run into rainy days, it would become another story: the anti-slipping performance would be greatly decreased. And because of this, the shoes are not wear-resistant and won’t last long.

Overall:

As a pair of running shoes with carbon plate, Adidas adizero adios Pro focuses more on helping improve runners’ speed, so its support is relatively inferior. Therefore, it is recommended that runners having weak ankle strength should be more cautious when wearing carbon-plate shoes with thick soles.

Converse All Star BB Evo Performance Review

Like many of you, I am also a loyal fan of the NBA games. And I also watched the NBA playoffs of 2020 which, I am sure, is what a lot of people are concerned about as well. To tell the truth, I’ve been really impressed with the perseverance of the Thunder in this year’s playoffs. On the one hand, they made it to the playoffs under the general underrating. And on the other, they even fought with their rival to the last second . And SGA’s performance is also quite surprising.

Then after the game, some questions ensue. Some may ask, “Is his sneaker a trump card that helped him perform that good?” So with regard to the shoes, here is the review of this Converse All Star BB Evo .

The shoes can be used in almost all kinds of grounds, except for the cement floors. And they are more than suitable for people weighing less than 80KG and those who don’t require too much of the shoes’ cushion. What is equally important is that the shoes are somewhat slim in its shoe type, which mean that they might not be that friendly to wide-footers.

Then here is about its overall performances that really count. To begin with, the shoes look quite like the Converse all star pro bb low. But actually, only when you’ve tried the shoes will you know that there is an immeasurably vast difference between them. Compared with the Converse all star pro bb low, the vamp of Converse All Star BB Evo is a great improvement; the vamp of the former is only enough for daily wearing since it can not offer sufficient support. But here I also want to mention that “Every coin has two sides.”: the air permeability of Converse All Star BB Evo is significantly reduced if compared with the other.

And maybe it is because of the design of the shoelace buckles, I feel the overall wrapping of the shoes are excellent. And as the inner and outer sides are braided with materials of different densities, the outer sides are noticeably stiffer, thus providing a more  obvious support while the inner side is a little softer and more comfortable. 

However, there is a point with which I am not satisfied. That is the filling of the heel looks very thick though( it is indeed very thick on the outside), the inner side of the heel is just of average performance.

Another excellent aspect of its wrapping is the built-in midsole, making the shoes all the more integrated.

.

In terms of the midsole, it is the built-in React  that is favored by Nike and widely used. When I am playing basketball on indoor courts, I can feel the feedback from the React which is bouncy.

Although the midsole in the rear part is thick, it is not enough and friendly to people with large weight.. But if it is compared with Jordan react elevation, I think it would be better.

With respect to the outsole, I’ve got the hang of it. On outdoor courts, the grip it offers me is considerable and it won’t absorb too much dust. However, if I am to play on inside smooth courts, I would then be a bit worried because I’ve sometimes slipped.

The upturned outsole can provide some support, so I think its anti-rollover protection is enough.

Maybe it’s because of the All Star Pro BB, I actually don’t have high expectations for it, but after some time getting along with it, I knew that it had successfully won my favor. And recently, I always chose it as my comrade in several games.

 

Overall:

Over the several years, I have learned a lesson that the shoes with excellent performances may not be the most suitable for you while some others that only get an average evaluation are indeed very nice. To sum up, it is the most suitable one that is the best one.

A Close Look at Nike Lebron 7 「MVP」

If asked which pair of shoes was the most cost-effective  to be picked up, I would say it is the Nike Lebron 7 「MVP」 which may also be the most worthy one that I think I have bought in the whole year 2020. As a matter of fact, I have bought the shoes way back in June, 2020. And the reason I take it out at this time is to share with you more authentic feelings and experiences.

I had also been thinking about buying another colorway which is in the picture below. However, after serious consideration, I chose the brighter colorway which eclipses the one below.

The shoes are actually launched to memorize the second   MVP won by James in his career in the 2009-2010 season.

It’s safe to say that the shoes can very well reflect all the  feelings of those days. The setups, the materials used and the design in details are all perfectly replicated.

The sneaker’s colorway is mainly a combination of the classic white and wine-red. Such a combination is simple though, it is indeed very eye-catching and memorable.

For the vamp material, it is a large leather in the front part which extends to the rear part. But uncharacteristically, there is no Flywire in this pair of shoes this time, which is mostly adopted by the colorways of Lebron 7. Instead, it is the much softer material that is used here.

The Nike swoosh in the shoe is made of velvet. With the wine-red welt and the gold velvet, the logo is actually very nice.

There are totally 7 sets of shoelace buckles, the last two of which are fixed with a gold reinforcement. And with the red shoelaces, the shoes look all the more beautiful and elegant.

At the back of the shoes, there is the nicest design of the shoes, on which is James’ personal logo at the beginning of his career. To tell the truth, I was even somewhat possessed with it which is rather meaningful.

In terms of the midsole, it was also one of the things I remember that was a hit at the time the shoes were launched. And the reason behind  this is that it was the first time that Nike installed a Max Air360 cushion on a basketball shoe. Therefore, it is no wonder that the tech would cause a stir in the field at that time.

Meanwhile, on top of the Max Air360  is also a cushion which is in replacement of the traditional  midsole. And despite the fact that the tech is widely seen in the sneaker market of today, it was indeed a big hit back then.

The “Lebron” logo.

On the inside of the vamp, the embroidery of the James logo in other colorways have become the embroidery of the MVP.

And inside the tongue is also embroidered the “08-09” and the “09-10”. It is during the two seasons that James won his two MVP in his career.

On top of that, as can be clearly seen in the picture, there are the words “witness” and “history”  embroidered on each side of the heel.

As for the insole, there are also many details about James.

Overall:

Whether it is for memorization or for use, the shoes are now at a relatively low price and are available in many shores. So if you are also interested it, why not take a shot?

PUMA Hybrid Fuego x First Mile Performance Review

In recent years, environmental protection has become a theme that can be widely seen and carried out almost everywhere. Therefore, many words, say, “Love the earth.” “Protect our planet.” “Energy saving.” “Emission reduction.”, have also permeated our life. According to some environmentalists, it is important to make the green lifestyle integrated with our daily doings and make it a conscious behavior and social consensus.

So in the field of running shoes, many brands have also risen to respond to the appeal. And the PUMA and First Mile are certainly among them. Their latest joint masterpiece is the PUMA Hybrid Fuego x First Mile whose slogan is “Buy a par of shoes so as to protect the earth.”

First Mile is actually a non-governmental environmental  organization that collects plastic bottles to create sustainable jobs and reduce pollution. By sorting, cleaning and shredding those bottles, and turning them into yarns that can be used to make products, the organization has made great contributions to the society and environment. For the Hybrid, maybe you are familiar with it as well. It is a midsole technology launched by Puma two years ago that entails the advantages of absorbing shock and offering multiplicative energy feedback.

However, in terms of the shoes’ appearance and design, it is not favored by many people. But what is funny is that the more you look at it, the more lingering charm you’ll find in it. The shoes are indeed very simple but at the mean time very delicate, which is in line with the call to protect the environment. And if you look at it closely, you can see that its vamp has a dark pattern that looks quite like Pythons grains.

As a pair of running shoes, it is the outsole and the midsole that count. Maybe it is out of the consideration of saving costs or protecting the environment, the outsole and the midsole are integrated. Therefore, you may not expect too much support performance of it. And at the rear part, there is the NRGY which is quite iconic of Hybrid.

After checking the shoes, you’ll know that all the details seem to tell you that this is a pair of extremely eco-friendly shoes. You may not be able to perceive the recycled material, but as some other reviewers observed, even the shoelaces were made of environmentally friendly materials.

But after all, whether a shoe fits you only you yourself know. For me, the shoes’ performances are satisfying, but it is the comfortable experience it offers me that attracts me most. And to tell the truth, I am so obsessed with it that I’ll wear it wherever I go. And as for the size, I chose the one I usually picked which is just suitable for me.

With respect to the wrapping, I should say that it is superior which should to some extent be credited to the soft and skin-friendly vamp. It will only make you feel like wearing nothing. What’s even better is that the vamp can last very long, which means that the shoes can be a long-time companion for you.

Despite some observation that the support is not enough for jogging, it is in fact enough for daily wearing.  Besides, there is also a saying, “The shoes are so skin-friendly that they don’t like a pair of running shoes.” So you can just imagine how nice it feels.

Overall:

To summarize, I think this is a must for running. And if you quite love running or you like exercising very much, you might as well take a shot. However, it is not limited to a certain people. It can also be used for daily wearing.

Skora Core Performance Review

Skora, which can be said to be a niche brand, has not been our country for a long time and seems somewhat mysterious for many of us. But like other brands, there is always an inspirational  story behind their development history.

More than a decade ago, the brand’s founder, David, was told by his doctor that he was no longer suitable for running. But after 18 months’ rehabilitation and trying many different kinds of shoes,  David Sypniewski finally realized that if he wanted a pair of running shoes that would not only allow him to run, but also make him love running again, he needed to build it himself.

During this process, he found that the truly best shoes were the ones that could protect the runners’ feet as  well as making them relax. And so after his research with great concentration, the Skora Core is finally here and presented in front of us.

I knew at the first glance that this Skora Core must be very slim in the shoe type. And upon opening the box, I was a bit surprised at seeing the waterproof film which is used here to replace the traditional protective paper. Besides, there is also brief introduction of the tech used in the shoes.

To tell the truth, I was quite bewildered at seeing the shoes which seemed quite like track shoes rather than running shoes. But after trying the shoes, I knew that I was deceived. According to the official introduction, there are many technologies in the shoes.

For the shoelaces, they are an asymmetrical design which can better fit our foot shape and fit our insteps and will not loosen easily.

Since the shoes are positioned as barefoot running shoes, there is no need to wearing socks. And there is also no need worrying about friction with the shoes because the suede lining inside are actually very comfortable. What’s more, it can hug our feet very well, seemingly to be integrated with us.

The insoles are comfortable as well. They are made of thin foams and designed in such a way to fit our feet.

Taking the insole out, you’ll find that there is no thick EVA and you can see the outsole directly.

As you can see that the vamp is full of holes which are to ensure air permeability. And after I tried the shoes, I felt the vamp especially comfortable, which was a superior experience for me.

The black rubber outsole can to some extent absorb shock, although the cushioning is not that good as those shoes with super excellent cushion.

The big round design is very eye-catching at night because it is reflective. Therefore, this is also a pair of running shoes that are more than suitable for night running.

Overall:

To summarize, Skora is a brand naturally built for running and has been focusing on creating real and natural running shoes. And it has also been insisting on its initial concept,” To run naturally and really.” So if you get to know the brand better, you’ll find that this pair of Skora Core are indeed very professional and if you have years of experience of exercising, then you are encouraged to take a shot for the shoes are particularly designed for you.

Vasque Constant Velocity Performance Review

Vasque, as one of the world’s most famous outdoor shoes brand, is still enjoying its reputation and success. Although the styles of its shoes have changed a little over the years, one of the things that has remained unchanged is its distribution network because the brand firmly believes that professional distribution networks  will help maintain the its long-term success.

Though I am not that familiar with the brand, I have found after getting along with this pair of Vasque Constant Velocity that this is quite a nice and lightweight off-road running shoes with excellent performances and is suitable for long-distance cross-country running under various conditions.

The first impression it gave me was “This is a pair of light and low-key running shoes.” Checking the details and design, I found that the shoes were actually made very professionally: there was reinforcement in the necessary parts and nice designs to offer support . Before trying it, the outsole has also caught my eyes. The deep grooves of the outsole, I think, is sure to provide good grip and traction.

Then take a look at the vamp. The vamp is actually seamless, which can make our feet more comfortable and prevent gravel or dust from entering our shoes during running.

The shoes belong to AR series which is specifically designed for “Adventure Running”. Its wrapping from the arch to the heel is in fact very excellent. So if you tighten your shoelaces, you’ll further find that the wrapping is improved to a more prominent level so that your feet are firmly fixed inside the shoes. Besides, since the forefoot is wide enough, there is a large space for your toes. And the side protection will also help reduce the strain on your calves and knees, and avoid overwork injuries from regular cross-country running.

The tongue and the lining inside the shoes can both offer some support. And the foams that absorb shock also improve comfort. With the setups, we all can have a nice experience.

The Constant Velocity is equipped with Vasque Enduralast EVA which is a kind of compound and is to offer us a long-lasting comrade as well as prominent cushioning and rebound. It also adopts a more traditional design that can be attractive for running lovers who prefer landing on the heel during running. .

When it comes to the outsole, it is patterned with multidirectional and external convex gears whose size and depth are designed according to the different purposes of usage so that it can flexibly adapt to rough grounds in the wild. This Constant Velocity also adopts another tech named the Vasque AxisGrip which is also a complex to achieve the perfect balance of durability and grip.

As a matter of fact, the shoes’ outsole performs very well. It had rained right before the day of testing. But the shoes successfully stand up to my test. I wore them out to the rugged roads, and it turned out that the outsole gripped excellently. Above all, its performance remained steady.

For a runner, it is of great importance that his/her running shoes must be light enough rather than bringing burden to his/her feet. However, although many brands have made it, this was done so at the cost of reducing the thickness of the soles and declining comfort. So to reduce the weight but without losing the quality of the shoes and ensure stability and comfort has become a goal for many brands. And good news is that Vasque has done this quite well.

Overall:

There are actually some shortcomings of the shoes. For example, some observed that Vasque shoes  generally don’t seem to fit well Asians, so there are negative feedback as well. But after all, there is not a shoe that is perfect. Having so many advantages, the shoes can be listed to the superior ones. Hopefully this can be somewhat help for you.

Skechers Go Run 4 Performance Review

I received this pair of Skechers Go Run 4 before the new year of 2017 from one of my friends who knew my tastes about running shoes very well. Actually, this is a really meaningful New Year gift which has companied me for many important moments. And it is no exaggeration to say that we are trusted partners since we have experienced many games and trainings together. So here are my experiences and feelings about it.

This pair of Skechers Go Run 4 is mainly red and black with fluorescent green insoles inside. Therefore, the shoes’ appearance is relatively lovely yet low-key.

For the outsole, it is one of the highlights of Skechers Go Run 4  and is designed in such a pattern to increase the grip performance while on the one hand increase the flexibility. The chrysanthemum grains patterned as such indicates that the details are well considered. But what is not appreciated of the outsole is that there is no wear-resisting rubber in the chrysanthemum grains , making them not durable to last long.

In contrast, the arch is much better protected. In addition to the stiffer material that connects the front and rear foot together, the arch is covered with black rubber and offers better support during running than does the outsole of NB Fresh Foam Zante V2. But in short, the outsole is not durable as a whole, which is a fatality of the shoes and would turn many potential buyers away.

As you can see that there are two big holes at the heel which is the Quick-Fit system. This is also a unique design of Skechers Go Run 4, which makes it easier for runners to put on and take off the shoes.

Since many people are now into night running, it is of great importance to guarantee safety. So it is quite considerate that security has been considered before designing the shoes and is to the maximum extent made into the shoes by the brand. Checking the shoes, you’ll find that Skechers Go Run 4’s reflective material is distributed on the toes, heels and middle part.

The Skechers Go Run 4, along with insoles, weighs 409 grams, which is considerably lighter than  the NB Fresh Foam Zante V2.

My first impression of the cushion after wearing the shoes was that the heel cushion was much better than the front one. And if I land on my rear feet, I can obviously feel the feedback from the cushion, which differs greatly from the hardness of Mizuno’s cushions.  And because the cushions are quite light, the shoes are more than suitable for people with relatively light weight.  Besides, the vamp fixed my feet very well so that I felt like I were just wearing a pair of socks.

Overall:

The shoe is very agile which is the general impression I can think of to describe it at the moment. It is very light and is therefore suitable for runners with medium or light weight. But to get the hang of it, you may patiently wait for some time. While its overall performances are great, I am still not so satisfied with its durability. But anyway, “No one is perfect.” and so is Skechers Go Run 4. So if you can treat it with some tolerance, you are sure to find a nice comrade.

Vazee Pace v2 Protect Pack Performance Review

This Vazee Pace v2 Protect Pack is a pair of shoes that are special for me. Since I am a running lover, it is crucial to cop appropriate equipement. Therefore, I have picked many running shoes over the past several years in order to find the most suitable one for myself. And someday, I came across this Vazee Pace v2 Protect Pack. I knew then that this would be put into my list of one of the most suitable. In this review, I am to share with you my feelings and experiences with it and it’s entirely up to you whether to adopt my opinions.

Honestly, when I opened the shoebox, Vazee Pace v2 Protect Pack’s appearance has somewhat stunned me. What’s more, when I showed it to m y friends, they surprisingly said that “why did you buy another pair of such coquettish shoes?”. And I just smiled an unaffected smile. But anyway, like many of you, I am very pleased at seeing that there are more and more shoes of NB that are equipped with new tech.

As for the shoes, it is all blue using DWR  vamp and the wing-like pattern in the upper reflects the speed-driven nature of the Vazee Pace V2 Protect Pack. And along with the reflectors scattered,  the shoes are made all the more coquettish.

Besides, the leather in the toe and the sides of the shoe can provide protection  as well as a certain amount of support. However, “Every coin has two sides.” It is because of this DWR vamp that its softness is to some extent lost. And at the same time, since there is no breathable enhancement technology such as engineering mesh, the shoes might not be suitable for summer wearing especially for those who sweat quite a lot underfoot; but on the other hand, it is rather suitable for winter wearing.

With respect to the size, it is recommended to buy the shoes according to the size you usually pick. Then in terms of the shoelaces, they play quite an important role in improving wrapping. If they are tightened, you’ll feel your feet are fixed in the shoes. And the TPU in the heel also greatly improves wrapping for the heel. Therefore, it is ensured that the overall wrapping is enough and excellent.

The fact that I am accustomed to all kinds of knit and mesh  vamps makes me feel uncomfortable in this Vazee Pace v2 Protect Pack. Its DWR vamp is actually somewhat pressing to my feet and the only word surging in my mind at the moment I put it on is “hard”. The RevLite midsole is lightweight though, it offers more rebound that cushioning. And along with the foamed-rubber outsole, I just can’t get used to it in a short time since I have recently wearing the Nike Flex RN .

However, when I was wearing it for a short walking, I made another discovery. To be exactly, the first feeling of wearing the shoes was not “hard”, but rather, it was responsive and especially bouncy. It is so responsive that it feels like “a lovestruck lover” who is always there to respond to every thing you do.

Overall:

To summarize, this is a pair of running shoes that can prevent injuries during running process. But due to the waterproof nature of the vamp, the shoes’ air permeability is bad, thus making it more suitable for winter wearing. After all, the above are my personal views and experiences. So it’s up to you whether to take my advice here.
