Since I can't get the Hyperspeed7 to Europe without a financial disaster, I am currently in the market for a new lightweight tempo shoe, for either up to 10k or a bit heavier for up to 20k
I find it rather difficult to filter out the shoes that are a possibility. Models names are really confusing to me and there is not a single pattern I can see. Like smaller number - less weight, or the letter "c" for carbon (like for some bike brands) or whatever
I ran Mizuno quiet a while, but want to mix up the game with a few other brands to keep my body more busy with different cushions.
For Mizuno it was like: Sayonara, Rider, Aero, Hitogami, Ekiden
Each having less drop and less weight, also compromising on cushion of course.
As looking through the most common brands I really had a hard time finding a shoe for my needs in a efficient way.
So do asics puma adidas and the other big players have a pattern one can rely on?
For the record I was running the Ekiden in races, a pure racing flat. For the new shoe I would love to stay under 200grams ~ 7oz and I am able to run between 0 to 6mm heel toe drop without a problem. So racing flat it shall be again
Thanks for your help!
