I'll have 300 miles in my SC Trainer v2 by the time the v3 comes out (August 1st). If it doesn't suck I am definitely getting it. The V2 is just a shoe I can wear any day for any run and be glad I did.
I love the way I watch you say you know nothing about the shoes but just listen to what people say. That’s what I’m doing here! I may as well just watch the videos you watch and cut out the middle man 😂
I liked the way you described your way of making a purchasing decision. Word of mouth over time is the clincher for me too. Once the initial hype and fanfare dies down, if people are still talking about it then okay we might be onto something. Thanks for the feedback on the Skyward X and Mizuno Neo Vista.
@@SagasuRunning Chris Sagasu, I am just honored to have finally made a tim grose shoetuber video, to be honest. I feel like I have arrived. If he unearths the strava to see which shoetubers are fastest, he will see us in the same pack 😂 18:45🔥
Sad to hear about the Trainah v3 since you're reviews seem to line up with my tastes but the honeymoon over joke with the Skyward x made me laugh. So true!😂
I'm just here for the funny stuff you say because I cannot care less about shoe reviews. I hear you on leaving the toothpaste cap off 😂. All my kids do that and it is so annoying.
SC trainer v2 is a 40mm stack height, but a 6mm drop. V3 should be the same. I wish they went to a smaller drop like the Fresh Foam X More or SC elite v4 (4mm drop)
@@MidLifeRunner for me personally the higher the stack height the less drop I want, to strike with mid foot. If there’s a big drop it makes me prone to heel striking which is less stable with those high stack heights and can lead to the shoe getting out from under me a bit more. Everyone is different of course
You definitely need to get the Adidas Adizero SL2 considering how much you like the Takumi Sen. the SL2 has a lot of similar feel underfoot to the Sen but in a daily trainer type setup. The first run out of the box can feel a little “chaotic” with how soft and bouncy the midsole is. After that, the shoe breaks in really nicely and feels great at a wide range of paces. It has exceeded my high expectations I had for the shoe. Also, if you are an Adidas AdiClub member, you could trade in points for a voucher for a percentage off full price items. I traded in points for a 30% off voucher and got the SL2 for $91 on release morning (roughly an hour after going on sale).
Looks like I’m becoming an ADICLUB member ! This is fantastic intel Matt Beier , thank you . I’m looking forward to this. Feels like it could be this years rebel v3 as far as more minimal daily trainer. Everyone is going wider , even the takumi. I like a bit more narrow
@@MidLifeRunner It is quickly becoming one of my favorite shoes to run in. Ran 10 miles in it this morning and it felt great throughout and never felt the shoe bottom out.
Three Body Problem: Otherwise known as the SC Trainaaahhh V3. Or, as I like to say the 1080 V13, SC Trainer V2 & Rebel V4 decided to have a Ménage à trois at a marathon major, thus the SC Trainer V3 was born.
Shoe category: Wankaaaa or No Wankaaa 🤷🏻♂️🤷🏻♂️🙈. I’ve been getting a lot of expedia and booking ads, so hope those companies pay up for those guitar lessons 🤔😁. Oh, and congrats on 5k+ subscribers 👍🏼👏🏼🙌🏼🙌🏼🙌🏼
🙏🏼 thanks Luis! Compelled or not compelled. Wankaaaah or no wankahh. Both are gold. Future rock n roll hall of fame is going into 8th grade right now. You are playing a role in history here
Yeah I’m just hoping there is a big drop I can feel. I tried the sc elite 4 and it was too wide. Bouncy for sure but not aggressive . Might as well get the mizuno shoe for that
@@MidLifeRunner agreed. I ran the elite 4 in a half back in March and it left a lot to be desired. I kinda wanna try the new puma bc I like my dn2 alot
What about New Balance Balos or More V5? Need some more reviews of those before I pull the trigger. Starting my marathon training block in a few weeks 😊
Paysah!
I ride or die by sales. Full price is reserved for only a select few shoes 😂
Which shoes? Interested to hear
@@joshuaxruns apparently SL2 is worth full price but I’m a no-buy

Yeah I jumped the gun on skyward x hype. I will get 500 miles out of it for sure - but it’s not exciting like the Neo vista
Chris Sagasu.... haha. Love it. Another name drop. The three body problem was a MUCH better book. Netflix tried, but missed.

Neo vista 2 hour long run tomorrow to take it to 115 Miles. It’s the trainer we have been waiting for. It’s the trainer we deserve

The SL2 is totally different from both the B12 and the Takumi Sen (which I both love). It's a fantastic shoe.
I’m looking forward to it
Great video… keep them coming.

😂 Not looking good for new balance this year. Mizuno stepping up tho!
Looking forward to the S1 review. Maybe even a versus: R1 v S1.
That’s the plan! I’ve seen r1 and I’ve seen s1 but not comparison videos
@@MidLifeRunner 👍
What is a "heavy runner" in kg/pounds tho?
What's your current weight to add a proper comparison?
🤔 great question . I know that I’m 68kg and my buddy is 72.5 and he falls into the “loves the Boston 12, NB too mushy
And I feel near 150lba is right on the border of it . The Neo vista is almost too mushy

@@MidLifeRunner if compelled is chosen 🤔🤔 are you going to throw sprite 🥤 on them. 🤔🤣😂😆 JK
I want to want the pacer...but I think it's gonna be wide like the rebel and it's just a touch too much.

@@RobertBruno+1 for the more v5
Hopefully this will be the race-worthy light weight option from NB.
I wish Hoka shoes weren’t so ugly lol. That skyward X reminds me of a buzz lightyear action figure saying “to infinity and beyond” in an ironic way.
🎯 ☠️ nailed it. I wore it for the 4th because only on the 4th can it’s gaudy nature be appreciated
Compel You Vs Not Compel You….Maybe too obvious, but I’d lean into the power of sprite to keep the Yay or Nay ‘TM’ lawsuits at bay!!
Yeeesss! I think this is the ticket . And every time I am compelled. I must play the clip
@@MidLifeRunner every…time…?? 😉 🤘
You gotta see the 3 body problem
😂 😂 😂
My skyward x is always leaving hair in the shower. Nasty, it looks like a rat
😂 the audacity
came for the pro4 but it was just click bait. :p
😂 I talk about the shoe. Just not sure if it looks like that
like for the Edd Budd shout out! 👊🏼
Midsole now
What do you mean nay? It's the shoes, we buyin' 😆. Puma Velocity Nitro 3 already at 55€. With 3 kids in the house, no dicount no party.
55? That’s the price of kid shoes. Have to buy it on principle
