I got a pair last week, so here’s my review on Vaporfly 4%. I’m not an expert, so I will just say what I feel about these shoes.
I heard people buy one size up for the old version, but new ones fit perfectly true to the size. If you have wider feet, you might feel these are too tight for you.
They are really light although they have thick cushions.
I brought Hoka Clifton 3 with me and ran with both on the treadmill at a local Nike store for comparison.
I didn’t see a huge difference but decided to buy them anyway because they are not easy to find.
Ran total 12 miles so far and OMG!! They are incredible. I run about 3 times a week with a HR monitor and I can tell I run the same distance with less effort.
With Hokas, top of my socks get wet, but not with these. Ventilation is better.
I also own a pair of Pegasus Turbo and there’s no comparison. Pegasus Turbo is a good training shoes though.
I highly recommend these shoes. I’ve gone through a lot of running shoes such as Brooks, Hoka, Newton, Nike, Inov8 and hands down these are the best.
I’m doing half marathon on Sunday, so we will see how I do.
