Looking forward to racing in these
Yes , I recommend this product
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] So far it looks like an upgrade from the predecessor the SuperComp Elite V5. The ride on these feel bouncy, comfortable and more responsive than the previous iteration, solid traction running in the rain. The fit feels true to size, although the toe feels a bit narrow than previous version.

1st Carbon Plated Shoe
Yes , I recommend this product
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This was my first carbon plated shoe ever. Amazing experience!! The shoe size was a men’s size 10. Felt true to size. The mid foot hugged comfortably and the toebox felt open and had enough wiggle toe room. The bounce felt great. The cushion felt soft and light. Highly recommended!

Great shoes. Would recommend
Yes , I recommend this product
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Test ran these shoes in Central Park under rainy conditions. They felt responsive and bouncy, yet pretty stable considering they're supershoes. My legs felt great running 4-5 miles in them. They held up great under the rain, and had great traction! I never slipped in the rain!

Can I glue the outsole?
No, I do not recommend this product
Two short runs on tarmac and the back/external outsole has almost completely to come off. They’re light but feel unstable. The upper shoe feels rigid-plasticky. If it wasn’t the only supeshoe made in 2E I would not have bought it. Not worth its full price.

Light, Bouncy, and (gasp) Stable?
Yes , I recommend this product
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I’ve run in the 5 a bunch, and right of the box the first thing I noticed with the 6, is how much lighter it is. The new foam also feels bouncier. Looking forward to putting this shoe through its paces!

Fast, bouncy, light
Yes , I recommend this product
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Shoes are light, bouncy and feel fast. Sole pushes you forward when you get up to speed without compromising for form at slower speeds. Highly recommend!
