I was torn between the Reb v3 & the Topo Cyclone 2, since they're the same weight & price. Because I'm a huge fan of the Boston shoe companies that get me to Boston each year (NB, Reebok, Saucony, Topo), and since I already had two pairs of NB (More v4 & SC Elite v3), I opted for the Topo. I also picked up the Phantom v3.
Always interested when you cover anything New Balance, with the curse of supremely wide feet, they seem to be my only option apart from Brooks Ghosts...If you have any thoughts on shoes that come in a 4E for marathon distance, would love to hear it.
Incredible! It's been a major issue for me. Shoes like the sc trainer v2 come in a 2e, but it feels like just the upper has more material while the actual last of the shoe is still a normal width. I recently found the 4e cumulus 25 is a legit 4e, but I want something more performance based and it's super hard to find.
for shorter runs, the rebel is more fun but definitely less protective/cushioned. if you don't mind ground feel, i would go with the rebel. but if you're used to running in more cushioned shoes, the adizero SL is a better choice (though it does take ~50 miles to soften up and not be super firm)
haven't had a chance to get it on foot but have heard good things. my friends who have say it's a good option for a stripped down lightweight trainer - not as bouncy/fun as the rebel v3 tho

nice - topo is doing big things recently. i've been eyeing the spectre which has been on sale for under $100 for a few weeks now
@@supwell Yeah I'm really digging my Spectre. I'm using it tomorrow for my hill repeats.
I love the rebel for easy runs.

Same! Best 4e shoes for every distance would be an excellent video
thanks for the idea - i'll do some research into it this week

Btw, the 2e revel v3 is ok, but still narrow in the midfoot which I (and others) have been frustrated by.
@@supwell legend
For 5k, 10k, and easy pace/slow runs, what shoe was more enjoyable to run in: Rebel or Adizero SL?
for shorter runs, the rebel is more fun but definitely less protective/cushioned. if you don't mind ground feel, i would go with the rebel. but if you're used to running in more cushioned shoes, the adizero SL is a better choice (though it does take ~50 miles to soften up and not be super firm)
What's your opinion on Puma Velocity Nitro 2?
