These are really good. I’m on my second pair and I have been wearing some type of Waffle Racer/Rival Waffle since 1992. They will wear out after about a year of daily use, but well worth it.

#teamnikeTrès satisfait pour courir dans les sentiers XC et pistes en bitume

Des chaussures parfaites pour une transition vers des racer et des minimalistes. J'aime beaucoup sa polyvalence dans les sentiers XC que sur une piste d'athlétisme en bitume. Attention, prendre 1/2 à 1 grandeur supérieure à celle que vous prenez habituellement !
