The GOAT race shoe
Duncan - 31 May 2025
I bought these for my upcoming race season. These are my second pair that I will be keeping fresh for the Gold Coast Marathon. Out of the three super shoes I tried on, these were the best fit. I find the faster I run the more I get out of them.
Great Style, Poor Quality
Silvioulmos - 08 Jun 2025
The shoes look really nice and stylish. I love the design and got a lot of compliments. But the quality isn’t great. After a few runs, the bottom started wearing out and the material didn’t hold up well. Bottom line: They’re beautiful shoes, but if you’re looking for something reliable and long-lasting for serious running, these aren’t it.
