ASICS METASPEED SKY PARIS REVIEW - THE LIGHTEST & BEST RETAIL RACE SHOE? - EDDBUD
An initial review of the ASICS METASPEED SKY PARIS , the latest race shoe from ASICS with that maxed out 40mm stack. Its super low in weight, has a new midsole foam and still retails lower than the VAPORFLY 3!
I took these out for about 16 miles of test runs to bring you my thoughts on the shoe.
I comment on the upper, midsole and outsole after my initial efforts.
Let me know your thoughts and opinions down in the comments.
This is a shoe that was sent to me by ASICS but they are not paying me to make this video nor will they see it before my valued viewers.

Good to see that Asics did not "do a Nike" and needlessly eff up a shoe. Instead they actually delivered on a new Meta Speed. Hopefully they pull off the same trick with the SuperBlast 2.
This is the highest score given by Ed. Can't wait to get these phenomenal shoes. I love my ASICS Trabuco Max 2 and Nimbus 25

I got the Edge version and they are amazing. Propel you forwards and just feel so comfortable and soooo fast! Blasted my fastest tempo run in a long time yesterday. - they just make you want to run fast! They are going to be my London Marathon shoe for sure! (Remember thinking the same of the Nike Vaporfly 2 when I first got it, but prefer this ASICS model)

Nice! I got them for Boston as well.
Loved the v1 (600km) so this one with significant weight savings and better midsole is a no brainer buy for me. Asics are onto something
As a definite cadence runner I'd have to opt for the edge. I had the Sky v1 and didn't find them all that exciting and would pick the Alphafly v1 over them every time! The Paris versions of these shoes look like real bangers so now i find myself having to make up a story to blag the wife into agreeing I "need them" 😂
Agree with everything you said, they are amazing. Without any doubt the best racing shoes I have ever tried. If I just could change one thing, I would like them to stretch the outsole rubber 5mm more in the back for the trade off of 5 grams 😊

@Ellbish No arch issues for me so far 30 miles in. Raced a 5k on Wednesday and a 10k today in them. I would describe the feeling of the edge as a slightly squishy version of the VaporFly 3.

Brilliant review Ed! 👏 I had a treadmill test run of the sky paris last weekend at the world indoor champs. I was as excited by them as you clearly are! 😂 I loved the original Tokyo model but didn't enjoy the sky+ as much. I'm a heel striker and felt sort of flat in them. Anyway, I can't wait to get a pair when they finally become available. Only quandary, I guess, is about the edge paris. By all accounts, it's much improved too and some reviewers suggesting it works better for heel strikers (I really didn't enjoy the edge+)

My problem with this stride vs cadence thing is that someone called cadance type runner should increase the lengthof their stride in order to accelerate. If you are a stride type runner, you can speed up by increasing the number of steps you take. So its a bit confusing.

Great review! how do you think this shoe would fit a runner with higher arches and a wide splaying forefoot? I tend to be a mid-forefoot striker. My stride length increases, and my cadence increases as I get faster.

Ok 👍 - so it actually starts higher in the back and swooshes lower as the plate approaches the forefoot (like the AP3) just that the AP3 has energy rods instead of plate. Also the rocker or lift in the front is more pronounced I take it.

So SILLY question, the whole cadence vs stride dynamic. I averaged 207 cadence in a short 3km race today (Holly Archer was there too). I was running on edge+ ; so I’ve a very high turnover already (even my training runs will average 180+, I never see below 170). I’m short so might explain the high turnover. Would I possibly benefit more from the sky paris to improve my stride (averaged 133cm in that race) ?

My main midsole man @kofuzi suggests the edge is better for shorter distance.
When is the UK release Edd🧐. Has it been delayed to allow the hysteria to calm down after the alpha 3 drop.

Yes I reckon they have delayed it a little due to yesterdays AF3 drop
Could it be anything to do with the Drop of the shoe, I have been on tired legs of late, and my knees are sore after runs, so went to the physio who asked about the shoes i do most my miles in and they are 10mm the triumph 20 and 8mm of the speed 3 and we are of the thought that the drop could be my issue so to start gone for Hoka Bondi 8 to go for cushion ride and ease into transition. the Metaspeed sky is in the basket ready as a race day speed shoe if get on with the 4mm drop in the Bondi will mean a new rotation, sadly 6 shoes may have to be retired before time but the legs and knees are more important especially when you reach 52 yrs old.

Lower drop needs time to adapt. I find 5 is about as low as I want to go
I increase my stride length and cadence as I speed up. Which version would suit me?
