N reacts to adidas Boost with the Nike Epic React Flyknit Shoeike

 

Better cushioning, better energy return, lightness and longevity in a running shoe.

Does it look familiar to you? You are forgiven for thinking that this is the marketing talk for adidas Boost, when in fact these are the responses Nike claims to have received when they asked runners what they expect from a running shoe. It's probably true, who wouldn't want those things, but we also have to take our hats off to adidas and their ever-popular Boost shoe released five years ago. Which, combined with the stealthy and clever marketing efforts of German brands, forced Nike to "react" with a very, very similar shoe. Nothing like a healthy little competition. techqueer

The result is Nike React foam cushioning that was launched in basketball in June 2017.

For the road-friendly version, however, Nike will launch the Epic React Flyknit shoe in February, delivering the soft cushioning feel you'd expect from the foam, but then quickly returning to its original shape as it provides a return of energy.   digitalknowledgetoday

On the edge of the React foam is the upper part of the shoe that features a sculpted forefoot,

toe box and arch thanks to the one-piece Nike Flyknit liner (which is inspired by the legendary Nike Flyknit Racer, an all-time favorite of Ape). sneakers): this ensures adequate support, flexibility and breathability when needed. It is a minimalist design and fits the foot but still provides support - a good match in our eyes.  healthnutritionhints

Nike tells us that elite and everyday runners have tested Nike React technology for over 17,000

running miles, this combined with over 400 chemistry and treatment combinations, and using scientific methods to refine materials with certain attributes. And you can be sure that Nike has triumphed with this shoe, as they almost always do with their new big high-end releases. Our only complaint: The one-piece foam midsole is quite high, but Nike suggests that it has to be this way to avoid the "base" and that it is wider to provide a strong enough base.   smartdiethealth

A pillow-shaped shoe that is lightweight yet offers good support and efficient energy return?

Looks like a winner. Yes, adidas came long before Nike, but the new Nike Epic React Flyknit is just as impressive, if not as attractive, as adidas' efforts. The Nike Epic React Flyknit will be available on February 22 at nike.com and at select retailers or £ 130. We can't wait to hear your comment and test the shoe for durability.     healthfitnesschampion
