    Crushed my PB in the Brooklyn half a couple days ago wearing the Pro 4’s.
    The more I wear them the better they feel.
    True there’s no pop in them like the Pro 3 has but I’ll take that trade off.
    Great video. Glad I found this channel

      What shoe do you recommend for full marathon running that is cushioned/supportive and also lightweight with carbon plate

    • @trailandkale
      @trailandkale  Před měsícem

      @chriscortinas1170 either this one or the Hola Cielo X1, which is my favorite

  • @lukew8574

    I agree, these shoes compared to other super shoes are very stable or as i like to say feel the most "normal". They just feel like an everyday trainer to me in comfort, but definitely feel the snappiness when you push the pace!

    • @trailandkale
      @trailandkale  Před měsícem

      Yeah but hats exactly it! Ty ye feel most normal! 😄 love these 👌🏼

    I found the toe box a bit too roomy so had to go a half size down from my Pro 3.

    • @trailandkale
      @trailandkale  Před 22 dny

      Thanks for sharing your experience. I quite enjoy the airy feeling in these ones but I can see that some may prefer them a little more snug

    Great review, toebox wider than the Pro 3? I have the Pro 3 and it's OK but wider is better..

    • @trailandkale
      @trailandkale  Před měsícem +1

      Thank you! Yes it’s definitely a wider fit, which is great! 👌🏼

    I ran my first marathon with this shoes. I loved them but I did have some pain on the bottom of my foot. I hate how you can’t take the insole out. I have a higher arch so I couldn’t use my high arch sole. Not sure if that was the issue but my feet did hurt a bit

    • @trailandkale
      @trailandkale  Před měsícem +1

      Thanks for sharing - that’s very annoying about the insole! I’d recommend trying out the Hoka Cielo x1 - it’s awesome: czcams.com/video/eZsSWvC1XDs/video.htmlsi=wPag2skomoB4mu25

    • @chriscortinas1170
      @chriscortinas1170 Před měsícem +1

      Thanks! Definitely gonna take a look

      @chriscortinas1170 you’re welcome!

    Would they suit heavier slower runners over a marathon

    • @trailandkale
      @trailandkale  Před měsícem

      Definitely! You’ll also appreciate the stability when compared to other super shoes out there. I love these.

    Hey curious lol, do you have a most disappointing shoe? Something you expected so much from but failed to deliver ?

    • @trailandkale
      @trailandkale  Před měsícem +1

      Haha great question!! And I can easily tell you the answer to that for this year so far. The Nike Vaporfly 3!! I was expecting so much, but it fell really short for me.

    • @trailandkale
      @trailandkale  Před měsícem +1

      And for trail… the North Face Summit Vectiv Pro. Holy crap that shoe looked amazing on paper but has some serious design flaws that I have no idea how TNF allowed to come to be.
