What’s your springtime running shoe at the moment?

Completely agree on the heel slip issues being WAY blown out of proportion... AND...the fact the Invincible 3 is firmer and (more) versatile. The strobel board IS the game changer for this shoe. I talked about the same things in my initial review and am continually surprised as I keep running in them. Lot's to talk about in a long term review for sure. Great video, fair and based on experience!

I put the shoe on I felt the heel slippage a little bit right away. Gave them a go 1st day ran a 10k on the treadmill and boy did the heel slippage go away and I noticed how this shoe kept me striding easier and better its weird lol. I was scared out of the box but they win me over in the same day.

I rock heavily with the Zoomx foam, coming back from injury it’s given me the ability to start working my way up to more miles and chase Pr’s and scholarships. The invincible 3 may be a different type of shoe, but I’m glad you’re giving it the attention it nonetheless deserves

I’ve only bought one Nike this year, but that’s interesting. Something to keep an eye on for sure

I've been looking everywhere lately for the same model of Invincible 2 that you have (sail colorway), but couldn't find it anywhere unfortunately. I really love how it looks, and the upper looks way more comfortable and less rigid/synthetic than the Invincible 3. I was looking to use them for casual comfort, not running, so the softness is perfect for that and the durability wouldn't be as much of an issue. Hope I'll get lucky and find a pair some time..

Check out StockX: stockx.com/nike-zoomx-invincible-run-flyknit-2-sail-black-mint-foam I think the 2 is more comfortable, definitely more of a fabric-type material, where the 3 feels a little plasticy

I just recently got this shoe, have like 40 miles on it. The only concern that i have is blisters. I don’t if its the material and shape of the shoe or maybe just the break in period. But after a 12m run it got me this big blister located on sole near the arch and ball of my foot.

The 1s the insole is right on the foam, no fabric at all. It feels super cool but I am paranoid about damaging the foam so I always have the insoles in.

I’m thinking about getting the Invincible Run 3’s for easy/slow runs. Would they be bad to use for my XC practices? (running up hills and trails)

@FreshBrewRunClub

Жыл бұрын

I think they should be ok, as long as you aren’t running on really difficult trails that need a lot of grip or stability. This is more of a road shoe, but it can handle some light trails. If you need something more durable, I really like the Pegasus Trail line. They’re great on trails but also pretty good for road running.

Would you recommend running a marathon with this shoes? (PS. I have plantar fasciitis só I need cushioned shoes). Great video btw😊😊

@FreshBrewRunClub

Thanks for watching! I would recommend this, especially with plantar fasciitis. I ran a marathon in the Invincible 2 and it was fine, and the 3 is even better for a marathon. Not the fastest shoe in the world, but comfort can be more important than speed in many cases

I'd wish Nike would make a shoe with the Inv1 midsole and outsole and the Inv 3 upper, that would be perfect.

What model out of the 3 of the Nike invincible line would you say has been the best out of all of them?

@FreshBrewRunClub

4 ай бұрын

I’d say the v1, although the v1 and v2 are basically the same shoe. The v2’s ankle collar area has a rougher fabric material, which I wore down because I kick the inside of my ankle. But I liked the bounce much better than the v3. However, the v3 is still a decent shoe. Just not as fun

I’ve been researching for the best beginner shoes and it’s overwhelming, do you think this is a good shoe for a beginner?

@FreshBrewRunClub

Жыл бұрын

I’d start with something a little more neutral like the Pegasus or New Balance 1080. Those shoes can do a lot of different runs, and you can figure out from there if you like something with more cushion, stability, etc.

The Invinsible 2's are/were my favorite running shoe. The 3's are really good as well but no where near as good as the 2's. Nike, if you are reading this, PLEASE go back to what worked so well with the 2's and incorporate that in the 4's.

@FreshBrewRunClub

I have a theory that Nike took the feedback from people complaining that the original Invincibles were too soft and slow, and made adjustments for the 3s. I saw a good amount of that a few years ago, even though I loved the originals for exactly what they were.

what about the wobble? that's bad overall for your hip muscles. Too much smoothness is not natural and your muscles work harder for maintain your balance.
