I already had the AF3 and have been really enjoying it, so I thought I was set with it for a while but I got very curious after seeing all the reviews about the Metaspeed Edge/Sky Paris and decided to give the Edge Paris a try. ASICS shoes have always tended fit a little narrow in the forefoot/toe-box for me, but the Edge Paris fit my feet perfectly, which was a pleasant surprise. The feel and ride provided by the FF Turbo+ was awesome and that left a nagging curiosity in me about the Sky Paris. I never really thought about this cadence vs stride thing but I did notice that the Edge Paris seemed to facilitate a fast rollover and higher cadence. So, although I certainly don't need yet another racing shoe, I got the Sky Paris and took it out on 16-mile run with a 10-mile segment at around 7:15/mi (4:30/km) pace in between easy warmup and cooldown runs at around 9:00/mi (5:37/km) pace and I was absolutely blown away. I haven't tried every racing supershoe out there, but I have to agree that the Metaspeed Sky Paris is the best I've tried amongst the ones I have tried: AF3, Vaporfly 3/2, Adios Pro 3, Endorphin Pro 3, and SC Elite 4/3. I also have the Takumi Sen 10, 9, and 8 which I mainly use for speed workouts. Some of my fastest runs have been on the Prime X Strung (both 1 and 2) and the Cielo X1, but both the Edge and Sky Paris take things up to another level with their super light weight and springy forward propulsion from the FF Turbo+, which seems to have the perfect balance between firm propulsive character and responsiveness and softer comfort and protectiveness. It's on the firm side compared to the ZoomX and Lightstrike Pro but in a very pleasant way. I don't know how else to describe it. It's a very enjoyable firmness - especially for a light guy like me (5'7''-167cm, 125lbs-57kg) who generally prefers the midsoles to be on the softer side. As of now, it really does seem the Sky Paris is the best all-round supershoe and the weight does have a lot to do with it. I really noticed the difference at the tail end of my 16-mile runs with both the Edge and Sky Paris. I did not feel fatigue at all and felt like I could easily go another 5~10 miles just based on how light the shoes felt. I guess the narrow heel which could cause instability for some may be an issue, but I found the stability to be fine on both although the extra forefoot width on the Sky Paris helped even more. All in all, an amazing racing shoe. I still need to do some A/B with the Edge Paris and Sky Paris to fully understand the differences but I think I now kinda get what this cadence vs. stride thing is about although it's subtle. The Edge Paris seems to make me lunge forward more for a fast rollover while the Sky Paris lifts my feel further off the ground to increase the stride length. Love 'em both but, if I had to choose only one, it'd be the Sky Paris!
@@topofthemountainfitness7245 I haven't tried the Alpha V1 so I can't speak for that shoe. I'd say the toe box width on the Sky Paris is about the same as Alpha V3 but with a little more volume. They are both TTS and fit snugly but comfortably so without any hot spots. I have a slightly wide forefoot with standard/narrow mid-foot and heel and that's why all the Adizero shoes have fit my feet very well even when their uppers can get finicky. I was worried that TTS for the Edge Paris would be too narrow for me when I ordered it and that I may have to return it and go half-size up, but that wasn't the case at all. It's actually on the slightly roomy side in the forefoot/toe-box. So, I also ordered the Sky Paris at TTS and it's perfect with a little room left over for swelling feet at near the end of a full marathon.
Good piece of detail 👌 I'm undecided though (and I guess this state may last until next Olympics 😂) For me, the medium speed heal striker which shoe will have the EDGE (name)? Is my race cadence 175 pushing me towards the EDGE (of the cliff;)?
@@yalokim5264 Honestly, I think either the Edge Paris or Sky Paris would work fine for most of us "middle-of-the-pack" runners. The differences between the two are subtle although noticeable if one really analyzes things. Based on your descriptions, it does seem the Edge Paris does have the EDGE. 😉The Sky Paris seems better suited for forefoot strikes.
@@EDDBUD I highly recommend the Sky Paris for mid to forefoot strikers, as am I. However, I do not recommend this shoe for heel strikers. The heel is too narrow and not supportive; especially towards the latter part of a marathon when fatigue kicks in and the form breaks down. Else, this shoe is outstanding. Cheers, Edd.
Any shoe that is used to get you a PB is going to be a winner. Excellent video Edd. Really good points regarding how Asics achieved such good weight saving yet still created an excellent performance oriented shoe. For me, if there is going to be a trade off between performance and stability, I'd choose performance for a race shoe. In Australia, the Asics is on the 'cheaper' side AUD$330 (same price as the Vaporfly 3 although some colorways are now $340) vs other brands so we are a bit luckier with regard to pricing here. It would seem the Nike Vaporfly 2 and Asics Metaspeed Edge Paris might be a good match fight.
I like the Sky Paris. I just received it and ran a small amount, but unlike other carbon-plated shoes I've tried, the plate didn't torment my feet. They also have a nice amount of cushion and responsiveness. I'll use them for 5K up to half-marathon distances (and maybe shorter than 5K too).
The Sky Paris is a wicked shoe, ran a parkrun Course PB today (without killing myself). I even held back a bit as this course is 3.05 miles. I’m trying the Edge this week on fresher legs.
Easily became my favorite shoe. Wow! Great shoe. I’m neutral fore foot striker but have a slight supinate tendency - minor, but still there, but believe me when I say that this shoe is my favorite race day shoe! Loved every bit of it. First time use out of box was for this year’s DC Cherry Blossom 10miler, and now I’m hoping to find the matching trainer for this shoe if possible.
I'm currently training for the Berlin Marathon and wasn't really a runner before. Now I have decided to buy a competition shoe. First choice was ADIDAS ADIZERO ADIOS PRO 3. However, I was very surprised by the width in the front area. My narrow angel foot literally swam in the shoe. Second choice was Asics Metaspeed Sky Paris... and I'm super satisfied. The shoe is super comfortable for narrow feet and makes you 10% faster. Great push! Love it.
Edd - was just able to go on a treadmill for quite some time and try out both - though I initially got the edge, but you've made me a convert and I exchanged for the sky - running 8+ miles today on my pro 3's made me realize sometimes I do cadence but also transition to stride length and also noticed when I picked up my speed, my foot strike was mid to forefoot and not really a heal striker at higher speeds hence sky here I come for the upcoming Brooklyn Half and upcoming marathons. I'll use the TS 10's for 5-10k and speed work and mix in my pro 3's.
Hope you get the Edge Paris in soon for a comparison. These Asics super shoes sound like very viable options. Congrats on the HM PB in the Sky Paris. I think the Edge Paris could work better for me than the Sky Paris being 5ft 9 and more of a cadence runner at faster paces.
I own both the Saucony Endorphin Elite and the Nike Vaporfly 3, and I find the Vaporfly 3 more comfortable and the ZoomX foam bounces beautifully, however, the Endorphin Elites are my favourite super shoe because although more firm, the speed roll works so well for me, and they also bounce nicely. Although the Vaporfly is fast, it feels like it is comfort vs. speed when it comes to the Elites and Vaporflys.
@@bbnd5476 I bounce between 61-65kg, but don’t get me wrong - I’d race in both super shoes I’ve mentioned. I’d probably pick the elites for a half marathon and the Vaporfly for a full marathon (current PBs are 1:21:44 for the half and 2:58:58 for the full while injured)
@@emceenzsimilar pace but quite ligher then. Interesring. I'm at 2:53 PB and targeting 2:50 at my next race. In the lab, I tested more efficient with denser foams (Lightsrike Pro) vs softer ones (ZoomX and PWR PB). Always wondered whether putting more force into the shoe makes me benefit from these firmer foams.
The Sky Paris tempts me for the marathon, but a) it would be my first marathon and b) my Garmin predictor puts my time above 4:30 hrs …don’t know if the heel will be helping in those last miles when the legs are tired and the running shape deteriorates
Really good shoes and coming from someone who really have big/near impossible expectations. My 2024 race choice for sure! I am tempted to try the edge but at the same time = why?!
The Takumi Sen 8-10 a bit of an accidental legend. The fact it compares with the big ones is nuts. I can attest to that, too, swapping PRs between the Sen and Alphaflys all the time.
My first pair of ASICS was Superblasts, and I was thoroughly impressed with them. Will certainly be picking up a pair of these. finally, a true competitor with Nike!
Seems like everyone has good things to say about this shoe and seems like a great price. I just picked up a pair of the Endorphin Elite for €188 at that price, I couldn't say no.
Not used the Saucony or adidas but have both the AF3 and Metaspeed Sky Paris and love them both, feel the Sky Paris could end up being the better of the two for me with its versatility as I see it as 5k to half marathon but can also do marathons where AF3 is best for half and marathon and , basically, I have no marathons on the horizon for the time being!
Wish I weren't injured. Took me out of Boston. Since we're the same size, I tail your recommendations lol and I see Sky Paris being fast 5K-10K in the rotation....keep up the good running!
Alphafly 3 sounds most comfortable along with the New Balance Elite V4. Not feeling the volt colorway though so might holdout for another colorway before my next marathon in August. Just hope they release more colorways soonish.
Asics have surely nailed this one. Took them out for the first time this morning and was a joyous experience. My only prior use of carbon shoes was the Alphafly 2 - which while explosive I always felt dictated the way I ran, not to mention destroyed my arches and toes. These beauties compliment your running with their perfectly designed forefoot impact zone and amazing foam distribution. They flatter you, they help you. Light as anything (that upper..!), uncomplicated, stable, forgiving, firm but responsive, you feel in total control. Less "Killing In The Name" by Rage Against The Machine....much more "Release the Pressure" by Leftfield ! 🎵
Got both the sky and edge. 1s off a parkrun pb yesterday in the edge after a tough training week. Not tried the sky yet. Im thinking edge for short stuff and sky for longer maybe. Either way great shoes.
Do you notice a great improvement from the Sky+? I’m on my 4th pair and no other shoe quite compares to it. Thinking about splashing out on the upgrade after seeing your reviews!
But of course “people” is a pretty broad category! I infer this to mean people who want or need to race in the models most pros are using. I had a chance to test the AF3 for a month or so, then had a chance to test the Sky P briefly and was very impressed (liked it much more than the AF3). But I’m going to Boston with the Endo Pro4 because I’d need more time with the SkyP or EdgeP to be sure the comfort half of the equation for a marathon is sufficient to justify the speed factor. I also would want to try both the Sky and Edge to be sure I got the one biomechanically best for me. But having tried so many super shoes now, the Endo Pro3 and now even more so v4 are far better than the AF3 or any Nikes I’ve tested thoroughly, for one solid example. @AleCardenasRealtor I say don’t be influenced by the fact Edd can’t review every great shoe within a given video theme. The EP3 was good enough for me to get 8th in my AG in Boston with an 18:00 PR over the previous year (when I wore the Speed 2’s).
Just wondering 🤔. I have the original bright orange Metaspeed Sky. Is the Metaspeed Sky Paris similar in any way to that shoe. The original Metaspeed Sky that I have is the lightest shoe of my many shoes that I have. Only 6.8 ounces for a U.S. men's size 10 1/2. I'm just asking to know if the Paris Sky is worth getting. Thank you Edd.
I have both (same size as you) The Metaspeed Sky v1 was 204gr and my new Sky Paris was 193gr but the difference was the stack height. Where the Sky1 was 33mm heel and 28mm forefoot the Paris is 39.5 heel and 34.5 forefoot. Same 5mm drop but the plate placement is different too. I ran a tempo long run yesterday in the new Sky Paris on heavy legs and was fantastic. I've never tried an AF and I wonder wich model has more propulsive effect. But for the price and weight I more than happy with my Sky Paris. I hope they work well on my April's marathon.
If most of these shoes got rid of non-functional design elements like tails/rear spoilers they could even be lighter....thank you for the video...I will probably buy both, the alpha fly 3 and the metaspeed...but will it be the sky or the edge?
I think the superblast 2 needs to use the old turbo. The firmness of the foam is what makes it super stable. 45mm of squash will make it unstable 😅 and based on the pictures it's only a minor upper update, and that's good 😉
Received delivery of both trainers today. Will test them out next weekend. Nationals Road relays for the Edge on Saturday and then the Whitehouse half marathon on the Sunday I'll wear the sky. So, I will let you know how I get on with them both
@EDDBUD I'm back, lol. So I have now tested the Edge and the Sky Paris. My thoughts after 1 run in each, is I love them both and need further test to decide on which distances I will use them for. So the Edge I found hard to slow down when warming up. So they are definitely built for speed. Managed to run quicker than 2 weeks ago. Felt great under foot and lockdown spot on. Also, I feel the durability is a step up, as I midfoot and heel strike and no damage or deep marks in shoe. Sky I raced a half marathon on a very windy day. The second half of the race was tough as I'm not race fit. So found when my form was slipping, the shoe still felt great under foot. And this will be a big step up for me when running a marathon, as I always hit the wall at 20/22 mile, and it feels like a slog and my feet start to hurt etc. Where I think the extra cushioning will help me to finish stronger than normal. I do feel the sky is more for half marathon and marathon. But I will test out over the shorter distances. And try the Edge over the longer distances. And let you know my thoughts after a few races in them both
Me too 👍 I didn't like the Sky+ much and preferred the original Sky. Got two pairs of Endorphin Elite - one with 110 miles on which I will again be wearing in Paris next weekend + a box fresh pair I got for £172 earlier this year. Hope that I can get to try the Sky and Edge Paris at the Paris Marathon Expo next weekend though. I know that asics are doing a big promotion of both shoes and the differences between them there - even machine analysis of which shoe they believe is better for each runner. My Half PB is still in the original Sky which I thought was great atvthe time. Any new shoe has a lot to do in order for me to prefer it to the Endorphin Elite over Marathon distance.
The Edge Paris runs like the Vaporfly 2 but with lower heel drop, very light and thicker midsole (firmer than ZoomX but gets softer once you get to a fast pace). Its like an upgraded VF2. Also the toe box is a bit roomy, i usually buy 8.0US for Asics but got the 8.5US for the Edge Paris. There’s too much space on the toe box and im having a bit of problem locking down. I’ll see if i can get used to it or just buy another pair.
Just finished watching Paris marathon - looks like the sky was very well represented and won at least in the women's race (she did have a pacer until the end) I think the men's may have worn them too-from what I have been seeing, the sky is the shoe of choice by many/most elites (not that I'm nearly there😂) did not see many edges as I was was looking at the runners soles and few to none were black (edge soles) for whatever it's worth.
Damn Ed now you make me willing to run Paris marathon with the ASICS. And leave the AF2 for this fun night olympic marathon. I guess I'll try the asics tomorrow for my last long run to make an honest unbiased decision 😅
Hi Edd, How would you rate FF turbo+ against Zoomx? The thing that I like about zoomx is that it is very comfortable apart from being responsive... comfort is very important on long runs!
I know you have kind of covered this question in the video... but as far as i can tell, Nike sets the benchmark-- every shoe gets compared to Nike supershoes-- and, what Nike has got is zoomx! So, do we finally have a foam (in ff turbo+) which is better than zoomx in every way?!
Having recently gotten to test the AF3 and Metaspeed Sky Paris, I actually preferred FFturbo+ over ZoomX, though it may have had to do with other elements of the shoes (which are very different) since that’s hard to separate. It’s certainly not LESS comfortable, nor is it less responsive.
@@EDDBUD BTW, to include Takumi Sen in this comparison is genius! Much appreciated! Tunes the perspective on the Metaspeed paris even finer! And you considered AF3 but not VF3, which is also interesting! Again, tunes the perspective even sharper!
I tested, the AF3, MS Sky, AP3. 1 km each (on the threadmill), the AP3 have been quite comfy (on the threadmill). But taking them outside for some 10ks... Blisters everywhere. Got that adidas socks, which help alot. But it seems like I will go with the VF3 for next marathon. My Marathon PB was in VF2. Didn't like the AF3.
My Sky Paris's arrived yesterday but are too tight! I got the same size as my Superblasts, so not sure what is going on... Hopefully I can get an exchange quickly, as would like to use them for London. 🙏🏽
I just did 30k+ in the Paris, fresh out the box. Biggest run of my London Marathon block. 1:45 at MP, felt amazing! I’ve run my long run marathon sessions in the Vaporfly 3 but the Sky Paris is different gravy 🤌🤌
Great video. Do the Edge or Sky work for high arches? I’m an aging (52 yo) runner, mid foot striker, who looking to up his half marathon a bit to get 1:30. Love the feel of the Saicony endorphin speed line, but looking to step up to my first carbon plated shoe. Considering the saucony pro/elite and adidas Adios 3 as well.
There was a great atmosphere at the Weymouth Yeovil match yesterday. Weymouth were winning with a brilliant display. However sadly halted due to a medical incident. Up the Terras!
hi, have enjoyed your reviews. just wondering what you would describe your cadence style as. I ask as there are the 2 versions of the metaspeed. thanks
Good morning. I'm not a elite runner but the Like to EDDBUD. Interesting comparison. My vote goes to Saucony endorphin pro 4. A nice weekend for everyone.
I got to test both and strongly preferred the MSP over the AF3 so hopefully you may not be missing anything as long as fit is good. I preferred even the fit of the MSP and the midsoles are now equal IMO.
Would you say the AM Sky Paris Runs shorter than the Alphafly 3 oder Adios Pro 3? I want to give them a try but i am unsure about the sizing. In the First Version of the Metaspeed Sky i went true to size and they were way to short Thanks in advance
Excellent review as always, thanks 🙏🏾. Waiting for delivery of my Sky Paris, all the reviews have been so positive, so I’m genuinely excited to try these out! AF3 order delayed for now.
I'm afraid that no matter what the performance boost may be, I'll still be looking, at best, second or third in my age division come this Saturday, assuming there are returners to the field from last year's race with similar performances. Horses in this field, I'm telling you.
I have a question, is metaspeed sky Paris good option for me if am sprinter and want fast shoe that help short races 100m -60m or just sprint drills if I want to just sprint in shoes and not in spikes. in workouts.
Fantastic Video @EDDBUD. Query. How do you compare MetaSpeed SkyParis to Adidas Adios Pro 3 & Puma Deviate Elite 2? Both were your favorite shoes before. Thanks!!!
Odd question but do you think the sky paris is wider than the alphafly 1, in the forefoot,i have a wideish foot and A1 fits well just want to see if sky paris will do the same.
Budd you cant...I mean quite obviously you can...but you cant make a sky race day comparison without having it go up against the only shoe I remember of recent that got a higher rating from you - the fast-r2!
Without an update for 2024 (why would they? Minimal changes results in price hikes for consumers on an already expensive shoe) the endorphin elite is no longer talked about. How would you say the EE compares to these 2024 super shoes? Pretending they all came out yesterday.
OK, so you have to claim some money from Asics as you just convinced me and I have just ordered Metaspeed Sky Paris 😁 I had Sky+, did with them two consecutive PB in marathon, for the last marathon I used Endorphin Elite, they are great, more stable than Asics, but the wear and tear on the outsole after 92km is disapointing. My Sky+ after 490km look better. So at this point I will have to super racing shoes and I will be able to compare them head to head.
Not sure which way to go guys..ive a new pair of endorphin elites i picked up on offer £175 and a pair of Sky Paris at rrp. One on each foot both true to size both very comfy. I like the way the elite rolls forward you dont get this with the Paris which suits me as iam a forefoot runner. Iam approx 72kg and they are for a Marathon this Autumn aiming for sub 3.15. Trotting around the house i prefer the role of the elites but cant try at marathon pace ha. Ive come from 2 pairs of endorphine pro 3s both the elite and sky feel a superior shoe...one pair has to go back not sure which🤔🤔

Yes they are that light!
Just opened the box. 1. They stink. 2. There’s a sponge bob noise when walk in them. The insole obviously isn’t glued down properly! 🤨

Just ordered a pair based on this review. Paris marathon next weekend ! Can’t wait
Hope you enjoy it!
Outstanding! I'm looking forward to a Asics Metaspeed Sky vs. Edge comparison video!
I think its fair to say that Asics has one hell of an overall running shoe line up. Maybe a video covering the whole Asics line?
Sounds like a good plan! Great idea
Great idea. Superblast is my favourite shoe of all time. Although the Sky Paris might well nudge that down the list eventually.
Been using Edge Paris. Best super shoe I have had the pleasure of using.
Glad it’s working out for you

This is the thing. They are quite their own shoe. Nothing else like it
I've got the Edge, they feel like running on pillows strapped to massive rocket engines! Insanely light and bouncy, and a joy to run in
Yeah they hit the spot this time
The Sky Paris has brought me up a level. New Pb's round the track. Cant wait for the Ibiza half marathon in two weeks 🎉
Glad they are hitting the spot 👍🏼👊
Just ordered mine. I will use them for my next marathon next November. Indeed I will train with before.
Best of luck! Enjoy

Looking forward to racing in my Sky Paris! It looks like the SuperBlast 2 is getting the Turbo+, im stoked about it!
Going to be a big shoe in many ways!
I totally agree with you on ASICS sky Paris, sky Paris is way better than my alphafly 3 and Adidas prime 2 sprung
Hello 💪 , have you tried the 2 models?
I like the alphafly 3 but it’s very locked into a certain use now
Are they better than the Prime X1 non sprung?

Edd - was just able to go on a treadmill for quite some time and try out both - though I initially got the edge, but you've made me a convert and I exchanged for the sky - running 8+ miles today on my pro 3's made me realize sometimes I do cadence but also transition to stride length and also noticed when I picked up my speed, my foot strike was mid to forefoot and not really a heal striker at higher speeds hence sky here I come for the upcoming Brooklyn Half and upcoming marathons. I'll use the TS 10's for 5-10k and speed work and mix in my pro 3's.
Yes same for me. I can really open up the stride with now penalty in terms of impact on the heel
Such a shame they don’t do these in a UK13 otherwise I’d snap a pair up!
Great video as always!
Bizarre they dont do those higher sizes
Hope you get the Edge Paris in soon for a comparison. These Asics super shoes sound like very viable options.
Congrats on the HM PB in the Sky Paris.
I think the Edge Paris could work better for me than the Sky Paris being 5ft 9 and more of a cadence runner at faster paces.
I own both the Saucony Endorphin Elite and the Nike Vaporfly 3, and I find the Vaporfly 3 more comfortable and the ZoomX foam bounces beautifully, however, the Endorphin Elites are my favourite super shoe because although more firm, the speed roll works so well for me, and they also bounce nicely. Although the Vaporfly is fast, it feels like it is comfort vs. speed when it comes to the Elites and Vaporflys.
Are you a heavier runner? I'm 85kg and have had the same experience. The denser foams seem to work better for me than ZoomX.
The elite has something I believe as the miles accumulate. But more controlled and super breathable.
@@bbnd5476 I bounce between 61-65kg, but don’t get me wrong - I’d race in both super shoes I’ve mentioned. I’d probably pick the elites for a half marathon and the Vaporfly for a full marathon (current PBs are 1:21:44 for the half and 2:58:58 for the full while injured)
@@emceenzsimilar pace but quite ligher then. Interesring. I'm at 2:53 PB and targeting 2:50 at my next race. In the lab, I tested more efficient with denser foams (Lightsrike Pro) vs softer ones (ZoomX and PWR PB). Always wondered whether putting more force into the shoe makes me benefit from these firmer foams.
The Sky Paris tempts me for the marathon, but a) it would be my first marathon and b) my Garmin predictor puts my time above 4:30 hrs …don’t know if the heel will be helping in those last miles when the legs are tired and the running shape deteriorates
Really good shoes and coming from someone who really have big/near impossible expectations.
My 2024 race choice for sure!
I am tempted to try the edge but at the same time = why?!
Asics have smashed the ball out the park with the edge/sky Paris
Agree 100%
The Takumi Sen 8-10 a bit of an accidental legend. The fact it compares with the big ones is nuts. I can attest to that, too, swapping PRs between the Sen and Alphaflys all the time.
Not sure you can call it accidental, they call it the Takumi Sen, it literally means "the artisan of the highest order"
My first pair of ASICS was Superblasts, and I was thoroughly impressed with them. Will certainly be picking up a pair of these. finally, a true competitor with Nike!
A shoe that gives hundreds of miles of use too
@@EDDBUD Do you think I Could I get 200 miles out of these as a Neutral Runner??
Why you don’t already have 1,000,000 subscribers is beyond me.
🤣👍🏼
I just can't get the Alphafly 3 to fit - have ordered a Sky Paris - hopefully it will fit the bill and help me around London!!!!
Seems like everyone has good things to say about this shoe and seems like a great price. I just picked up a pair of the Endorphin Elite for €188 at that price, I couldn't say no.
Yes a top price. Bit easier to chew at that discount
@EDDBUD Yeah, here in Spain, the price is €300 way out of my price league as I'm just a beginner runner .
Is there any arch issues with the sky Paris or edge ?
Hey Edd, any plans on comparing with the Metaspeed Edge Paris?
Trying to procure a pair 👍🏼
Not used the Saucony or adidas but have both the AF3 and Metaspeed Sky Paris and love them both, feel the Sky Paris could end up being the better of the two for me with its versatility as I see it as 5k to half marathon but can also do marathons where AF3 is best for half and marathon and , basically, I have no marathons on the horizon for the time being!
Yeah this is the thing. The ASICS is great for all distances. Makes the alphafly an expensive rolls Royce!
Wish I weren't injured. Took me out of Boston. Since we're the same size, I tail your recommendations lol and I see Sky Paris being fast 5K-10K in the rotation....keep up the good running!
Thanks and hope you are on the road to recovery
Edd, did you ever find yourself looking down at your outsoles, while thinking of the Bon Iver lyrics: "come on, Skinny Love, just last the year ..."?
These are strangely holding up way better than the last 2 versions
Just got the Edge. Marathon next week. Fingers crossed 😊
Best of luck
Alphafly 3 sounds most comfortable along with the New Balance Elite V4.
Not feeling the volt colorway though so might holdout for another colorway before my next marathon in August.
Just hope they release more colorways soonish.
For the uk we need a brown colourway. 🤣👍🏼
Wow that is quite the fall from grace Ed. I remember us (Cardiff City) playing you in the championship.
Yes some poor years of management and stagnation. Though we are now only a couple of wins away from a return to the national league at least!
Asics have surely nailed this one. Took them out for the first time this morning and was a joyous experience. My only prior use of carbon shoes was the Alphafly 2 - which while explosive I always felt dictated the way I ran, not to mention destroyed my arches and toes. These beauties compliment your running with their perfectly designed forefoot impact zone and amazing foam distribution. They flatter you, they help you. Light as anything (that upper..!), uncomplicated, stable, forgiving, firm but responsive, you feel in total control.
Less "Killing In The Name" by Rage Against The Machine....much more "Release the Pressure" by Leftfield ! 🎵
It’s the full package
Got both the sky and edge. 1s off a parkrun pb yesterday in the edge after a tough training week. Not tried the sky yet. Im thinking edge for short stuff and sky for longer maybe. Either way great shoes.
So which one?
@@whippedculture7633 if I had to pick one I'd go edge for me. Will use the sky for longer distances.
Credit to ASICS for for the strong price point, Hoka and On need to take note.
Hope these comd back in stock soon. My curiosity has got the better of me! 😂
Do you notice a great improvement from the Sky+? I’m on my 4th pair and no other shoe quite compares to it. Thinking about splashing out on the upgrade after seeing your reviews!
It’s a big improvement. And I really liked the previous version too!
@@EDDBUD sold! 😁
ASICS give this man some commission 💰🤣
What about the endorphin pro 4, not good enough?
Tried to go with models people have touted as the best ever.
But of course “people” is a pretty broad category! I infer this to mean people who want or need to race in the models most pros are using. I had a chance to test the AF3 for a month or so, then had a chance to test the Sky P briefly and was very impressed (liked it much more than the AF3). But I’m going to Boston with the Endo Pro4 because I’d need more time with the SkyP or EdgeP to be sure the comfort half of the equation for a marathon is sufficient to justify the speed factor. I also would want to try both the Sky and Edge to be sure I got the one biomechanically best for me. But having tried so many super shoes now, the Endo Pro3 and now even more so v4 are far better than the AF3 or any Nikes I’ve tested thoroughly, for one solid example. @AleCardenasRealtor I say don’t be influenced by the fact Edd can’t review every great shoe within a given video theme. The EP3 was good enough for me to get 8th in my AG in Boston with an 18:00 PR over the previous year (when I wore the Speed 2’s).
Just wondering 🤔. I have the original bright orange Metaspeed Sky. Is the Metaspeed Sky Paris similar in any way to that shoe. The original Metaspeed Sky that I have is the lightest shoe of my many shoes that I have. Only 6.8 ounces for a U.S. men's size 10 1/2. I'm just asking to know if the Paris Sky is worth getting. Thank you Edd.
This is even lighter than that one somehow.
I have both (same size as you) The Metaspeed Sky v1 was 204gr and my new Sky Paris was 193gr but the difference was the stack height. Where the Sky1 was 33mm heel and 28mm forefoot the Paris is 39.5 heel and 34.5 forefoot. Same 5mm drop but the plate placement is different too. I ran a tempo long run yesterday in the new Sky Paris on heavy legs and was fantastic.
I've never tried an AF and I wonder wich model has more propulsive effect. But for the price and weight I more than happy with my Sky Paris. I hope they work well on my April's marathon.
@adr673 thank you much for that insight. Good luck to you in your April marathon. 👍
@@ABucc Thank you!
Good luck in the Easter Bunny! It will be interesting to see what shoes you go for, but I'm sure you've got a pair of aces up your sleeve ♠♥♦♣
Beast has returned the empties.
If most of these shoes got rid of non-functional design elements like tails/rear spoilers they could even be lighter....thank you for the video...I will probably buy both, the alpha fly 3 and the metaspeed...but will it be the sky or the edge?
I’m hearing from a reliable source that the next super blast will have the FF Turbo+ and will be even lighter. Look for it May/June.
That could be one hell of a shoe
I think the superblast 2 needs to use the old turbo. The firmness of the foam is what makes it super stable. 45mm of squash will make it unstable 😅 and based on the pictures it's only a minor upper update, and that's good 😉
I don’t think the foam is quite that soft. I’m sure it will hit the spot
Out of interest, how does the Sky Paris compare with the Hoka rocket x 2? I remember that was highly regarded by yourself also.
Not as soft but the rocker isn’t as prominent in the asics
Received delivery of both trainers today. Will test them out next weekend. Nationals Road relays for the Edge on Saturday and then the Whitehouse half marathon on the Sunday I'll wear the sky. So, I will let you know how I get on with them both
Keen to hear your thoughts! 👍🏼
@EDDBUD I'm back, lol. So I have now tested the Edge and the Sky Paris. My thoughts after 1 run in each, is I love them both and need further test to decide on which distances I will use them for. So the Edge I found hard to slow down when warming up. So they are definitely built for speed. Managed to run quicker than 2 weeks ago. Felt great under foot and lockdown spot on. Also, I feel the durability is a step up, as I midfoot and heel strike and no damage or deep marks in shoe.
Sky I raced a half marathon on a very windy day. The second half of the race was tough as I'm not race fit. So found when my form was slipping, the shoe still felt great under foot. And this will be a big step up for me when running a marathon, as I always hit the wall at 20/22 mile, and it feels like a slog and my feet start to hurt etc. Where I think the extra cushioning will help me to finish stronger than normal. I do feel the sky is more for half marathon and marathon. But I will test out over the shorter distances. And try the Edge over the longer distances. And let you know my thoughts after a few races in them both
@@thewingitrunner Some good insight there thanks for posting 👍🏼👊
Do these metaspeed sky make the calfs burn while running fast? This was a problem i had when i ran with the metaspeed sky plus.
Haven’t experienced that at all
Me too 👍 I didn't like the Sky+ much and preferred the original Sky. Got two pairs of Endorphin Elite - one with 110 miles on which I will again be wearing in Paris next weekend + a box fresh pair I got for £172 earlier this year. Hope that I can get to try the Sky and Edge Paris at the Paris Marathon Expo next weekend though. I know that asics are doing a big promotion of both shoes and the differences between them there - even machine analysis of which shoe they believe is better for each runner. My Half PB is still in the original Sky which I thought was great atvthe time. Any new shoe has a lot to do in order for me to prefer it to the Endorphin Elite over Marathon distance.
The Edge Paris runs like the Vaporfly 2 but with lower heel drop, very light and thicker midsole (firmer than ZoomX but gets softer once you get to a fast pace). Its like an upgraded VF2. Also the toe box is a bit roomy, i usually buy 8.0US for Asics but got the 8.5US for the Edge Paris. There’s too much space on the toe box and im having a bit of problem locking down. I’ll see if i can get used to it or just buy another pair.
The Sky Paris is an insane shoe. I couldn’t believe the paces I was running.
@@Ben-yw8be yes it’s a cracker! Up hills too. Very beneficial
Just finished watching Paris marathon - looks like the sky was very well represented and won at least in the women's race (she did have a pacer until the end) I think the men's may have worn them too-from what I have been seeing, the sky is the shoe of choice by many/most elites (not that I'm nearly there😂) did not see many edges as I was was looking at the runners soles and few to none were black (edge soles) for whatever it's worth.
Yes lots of podiums for that one already.
Damn Ed now you make me willing to run Paris marathon with the ASICS. And leave the AF2 for this fun night olympic marathon. I guess I'll try the asics tomorrow for my last long run to make an honest unbiased decision 😅
Give it a whirl. The weight itself is a massive saver later on
I'll keep you posted, it's soon enough!
Hi Edd, How would you rate FF turbo+ against Zoomx?
The thing that I like about zoomx is that it is very comfortable apart from being responsive... comfort is very important on long runs!
I know you have kind of covered this question in the video... but as far as i can tell, Nike sets the benchmark-- every shoe gets compared to Nike supershoes-- and, what Nike has got is zoomx! So, do we finally have a foam (in ff turbo+) which is better than zoomx in every way?!
I find them both forgiving. Though in my opinion zoomx now isn’t what I was years back. They have slowly changed it a bit
Having recently gotten to test the AF3 and Metaspeed Sky Paris, I actually preferred FFturbo+ over ZoomX, though it may have had to do with other elements of the shoes (which are very different) since that’s hard to separate. It’s certainly not LESS comfortable, nor is it less responsive.
@@EDDBUD Thanks, Edd!
@@EDDBUD BTW, to include Takumi Sen in this comparison is genius! Much appreciated! Tunes the perspective on the Metaspeed paris even finer!
And you considered AF3 but not VF3, which is also interesting! Again, tunes the perspective even sharper!
Would you go for the sky plus or the superblast
Very different shoes. Very large surface areas on the Superblast. More a trainer for me.
Great Video edd. (for the algorithm)
Glad you enjoyed it!
As always,keep it up. 👊🏽
I tested, the AF3, MS Sky, AP3. 1 km each (on the threadmill), the AP3 have been quite comfy (on the threadmill). But taking them outside for some 10ks... Blisters everywhere. Got that adidas socks, which help alot.
But it seems like I will go with the VF3 for next marathon. My Marathon PB was in VF2. Didn't like the AF3.
I found the af3 shone over time. Needed some break in. And some wd40 on the pods. 🤣👍🏼
@@EDDBUD yeah I am asking myself if that pod squeaking is part of nike AF3 marketing. maybe you run also faster to end that squeaking earlier. 😂
My Sky Paris's arrived yesterday but are too tight! I got the same size as my Superblasts, so not sure what is going on... Hopefully I can get an exchange quickly, as would like to use them for London. 🙏🏽
I found the Superblast huge in my size 11. The size 11 Metaspeed are spot on. Maybe some production variance.
I just did 30k+ in the Paris, fresh out the box. Biggest run of my London Marathon block. 1:45 at MP, felt amazing! I’ve run my long run marathon sessions in the Vaporfly 3 but the Sky Paris is different gravy 🤌🤌
Glad they are hitting the spot!
Will there be a Part 2 to this video? I want to see a comparison with the Hoka Rocket X2. Thanks!
For you, I shall make it happen 👍🏼
@@EDDBUD You rock! Love it! Thank you 🤩
Great video. Do the Edge or Sky work for high arches? I’m an aging (52 yo) runner, mid foot striker, who looking to up his half marathon a bit to get 1:30. Love the feel of the Saicony endorphin speed line, but looking to step up to my first carbon plated shoe. Considering the saucony pro/elite and adidas Adios 3 as well.
I would suggest you can feel the arch a little. Some decent support there. The wrap round the midfoot is very good in this shoe.
There was a great atmosphere at the Weymouth Yeovil match yesterday. Weymouth were winning with a brilliant display. However sadly halted due to a medical incident. Up the Terras!
Yes let’s hope they were ok. You guys deserved the 3 on the showing up to 70 odd mins. We just didn’t get going!
Nice!
Thank you! Cheers!
What about the drop being 5mm vs 8mm in the other shoes? Can you tell a difference and do you prefer a higher or lower drop?
I can tell the difference when racing. The lower drop shoes seem to get more out of my long stride
hi, have enjoyed your reviews. just wondering what you would describe your cadence style as. I ask as there are the 2 versions of the metaspeed.
thanks
Very much I increase stride as I speed up
It's crazy to think Yeovil were in the Championship just 10 years ago. Should be at least a League 2 club. How did it go so wrong?
Owners ran it into the ground. We almost went out of business last may. New local owner has turned it around!
How does the sky compare to the celio x1?
Less bulk and width in the heel. The Hoka is much heavier too and more controlling of the footstrike
Great review Edd 👍. I'm wondering if the "we" of Yeovil Town ever becomes a "they" when they lose 😁.
Nah it’s always we. Even when we got relegated. Though the owner has turned it around. The previous owner was bad news.
Good morning. I'm not a elite runner but the Like to EDDBUD. Interesting comparison. My vote goes to Saucony endorphin pro 4. A nice weekend for everyone.
Good choice!
Superb job on video
Thanks for the visit
Great review! How narrow are these shoes? Is there a big variation between them and the endorphin pro 3 in terms of width?
The ASICS? Not all that narrow in the forefoot but quite minimal in the heel
MSP is very good makes me feel like I don’t need to try the AF3 because that shoe is impossible to get
I got to test both and strongly preferred the MSP over the AF3 so hopefully you may not be missing anything as long as fit is good. I preferred even the fit of the MSP and the midsoles are now equal IMO.
Would you say the AM Sky Paris Runs shorter than the Alphafly 3 oder Adios Pro 3? I want to give them a try but i am unsure about the sizing. In the First Version of the Metaspeed Sky i went true to size and they were way to short
Thanks in advance
Found them oddly longer than the Nike
Would u recommend the gel nimbus 26
Great shoe for easy runs and recovery. Bit bulky for much else for me at least
@@EDDBUD that’s great thank you for the reply
Ed are ASICS taking over from Saucony as top brand line and even from Puma for yourself?
Well I have ran multiple year PR for 10k in the asics Metaspeed Sky Plus. Now PR in the half distance in the sky paris. So it seems to work for me
How accommodating is this shoe to runners with wider forefeet/splaying toes/higher arches?
Reasonably wide. Good toebox height. Arch is there though not as prominent as the vf3 or others
Excellent review as always, thanks 🙏🏾. Waiting for delivery of my Sky Paris, all the reviews have been so positive, so I’m genuinely excited to try these out! AF3 order delayed for now.
Hope you enjoy it!
Thanks Edd 🙏🏾✨
What about vaporfly 3 vs paris
Will do a part 2 soon
Have you run in the Edge Paris? How would you compare the ride of the two?
Yet to try the edge
I'm afraid that no matter what the performance boost may be, I'll still be looking, at best, second or third in my age division come this Saturday, assuming there are returners to the field from last year's race with similar performances. Horses in this field, I'm telling you.
I have a question, is metaspeed sky Paris good option for me if am sprinter and want fast shoe that help short races 100m -60m or just sprint drills if I want to just sprint in shoes and not in spikes. in workouts.
Don’t see why not
Would you reccomend takumi sen 10 or metaspeed sky paris for 5k xc?
Neither really if it’s uk xc. Our courses are too muddy. What surface?
@@EDDBUD I live in california so it is a bunch of packed dirt, grass and pavement. Also spikes are banned here at the HS level.
In which shoes do you make your easy/aerobic/recovery runs? Thank you.
Novablast 4 or the supernova. Those hit the spot for that type of stuff.
A shoe can be narrower than the Takumi Sen ?!?!?
Yes. By a hair
Fantastic Video @EDDBUD. Query. How do you compare MetaSpeed SkyParis to Adidas Adios Pro 3 & Puma Deviate Elite 2? Both were your favorite shoes before. Thanks!!!
Like the lower stack on the Puma. The pro 3 from adidas was a good shoe though not a patch on the asics.
Weymouth Weymouth!
Boooo! 🤣👍🏼
@@EDDBUD Hahahahahahah UP THE TERRAS!
Between the Sky Paris and the Edge Paris, which of the two closely resembles the ride of last year's Endorphin Pro 3?
I would assume the edge. Yet to test it though
What would be your go to shoe for a winter marathon?😊
Maybe fujispeed or the Puma models due to the outsole.
Odd question but do you think the sky paris is wider than the alphafly 1, in the forefoot,i have a wideish foot and A1 fits well just want to see if sky paris will do the same.
It’s wide enough in the forefoot. Narrow in the arch but not as present as the af1.
Budd you cant...I mean quite obviously you can...but you cant make a sky race day comparison without having it go up against the only shoe I remember of recent that got a higher rating from you - the fast-r2!
Quick review from me: Sky - yeah, thats obviously a rocket. Fast-R2 - where have you been all my life?
Both are good though the Puma maybe a better range option
Can anyone share how this pair of shoes improved your performance? Increase cadence or stride, by how much?
I’m a stride runner. Increase my stride length quite a bit when I get quicker
The Paris is an amazing shoe if you can’t run fast in it, it’s not the shoes fault.
Without an update for 2024 (why would they? Minimal changes results in price hikes for consumers on an already expensive shoe) the endorphin elite is no longer talked about. How would you say the EE compares to these 2024 super shoes? Pretending they all came out yesterday.
It’s up on par with the alphafly for those that don’t want the additional tech and just foam
OK, so you have to claim some money from Asics as you just convinced me and I have just ordered Metaspeed Sky Paris 😁
I had Sky+, did with them two consecutive PB in marathon, for the last marathon I used Endorphin Elite, they are great, more stable than Asics, but the wear and tear on the outsole after 92km is disapointing. My Sky+ after 490km look better.
So at this point I will have to super racing shoes and I will be able to compare them head to head.
Best 10k previous for me was in the sky plus. Until the paris arrived. 🤣👍🏼
Has anyone compare new Metaspeed Sky Paris with MagicSpeed 2?
Maybe one of the viewers?
Not sure which way to go guys..ive a new pair of endorphin elites i picked up on offer £175 and a pair of Sky Paris at rrp. One on each foot both true to size both very comfy. I like the way the elite rolls forward you dont get this with the Paris which suits me as iam a forefoot runner. Iam approx 72kg and they are for a Marathon this Autumn aiming for sub 3.15. Trotting around the house i prefer the role of the elites but cant try at marathon pace ha. Ive come from 2 pairs of endorphine pro 3s both the elite and sky feel a superior shoe...one pair has to go back not sure which🤔🤔
The sky paris is super light for me. Pb shoe!
Agree seems the way to go for up to half marathon thoughts on support for full marathon 🤔
