Fast forward. Rewind. Doesn’t matter—this shoe takes retro into the future. The V2K remasters everything you love about the Vomero in a look pulled straight from an early aughts running catalog. Layer up in a mixture of flashy metallics, referential plastic details and a midsole with a perfectly vintage aesthetic. And the chunky heel makes sure wherever you go, it's in comfort.

These are perfect for the gym or a casual day out and about. I love the retro feel and the chunky sole design. They are comfy to walk in but felt a bit snug in the toe box for me as I have bunions, so I think a half size up may do the trick in my case. If I had to change one thing, I think I would like to see some of the shiny/metallic details be matte instead, because I love the look of the Platinum Violet / Light Bone color-way with the suede patches. Nonetheless, the black goes with everything and is seamless to add to any outfit! The mesh details allow for breathability which is a huge plus!

Love the style of these shoes and while they were quite comfortable I thought the heel was just a bit too chunky. I liked the design of the shoe and the metallic accents made it feel like more than a plan black shoe. I also felt like the back of the shoe rested just slightly to low on my ankle to the point where I thought my shoe might slip off of my foot.

I am in love with these shoes! I got the black pair, and I find that they are super practical, very comfortable, and extremely versatile. I appreciate that these can easily go with jeans for more of a retro-streetwear style, or with leggings and a sweatshirt for a cute comfy outfit. I got the 7.5, though I generally range from 7 to 7.5, and these fit me perfectly. Since I have kind of wide feet in the toe area, I generally need shoes with a large toe box, and these definitely fit the bill without seeming too clunky. They're a really good level of "chunky" for my taste, without making it seem like I have clown feet. I did think that it I had to break them in a bit, but after approximately a mile or two of walking around in them they conformed to my feet really well. I also really loved the shiny accents mixed in with the mesh for a really retro look, as I find that it gives them a bit of personality. I would say that as someone who definitely relies on a lot of mileage in my shoes (I walk around a lot) they're great. That said, I would not attempt to run in these. They are definitely more of a streetwear / casual wear than actual running shoes (despite the name, which is slightly misleading).
