Reebok finally makes its appearance in the running world with the launch of five shoes specially designed for runners. Among all this new catalog is the new edition of the Reebok FloatRide Run, a lightweight, comfortable, and incorporating a good list of features and technologies that the firm has developed to provide optimum performance.

For the design of these shoes has been used a unique style that incorporates lightweight materials, and that offer enough comfort to the foot. Reebok has created compounds that will allow an excellent level of cushioning, and without affecting the weight of the shoe.

Upper features

The upper of these shoes catches the eye right from the start. Reebok has designed a two-piece upper, in the forefoot section and up to the midfoot Knit technology is used, which allows the shoes to fit more closely to the foot providing a feeling as if you were wearing a sock.

This fabric also allows good airflow into the interior, making the shoe quite ventilated, although it should be noted that this does not make the shoe waterproof.

The heel section has a different style, a more rigid material is incorporated from the heel area and goes down diagonally until it disappears in the midfoot. This material allows the heel to stay securely in place and also offers greater stability to the foot. While it may appear to be a hard material, the truth is that it adapts well to the movements of the foot during running.

On the sides there are TPU reinforcements forming a kind of lattice that joins the heel area and the lacing system, so when we adjust the laces we will also be adjusting the sides of the shoe to achieve a custom closure that fits our foot width.

Midsole

The midsole of the shoe has 8 millimeters of drop, a dense enough cushioning to keep the feet comfortable, and to offer some level of surface feel. This section of the Reebok FloatRide Run has added the technology that gives the shoe its name, the FloatRide compound, which is characterized by offering a different level of cushioning depending on the section of the shoe. This is a softer feel in the heel area to give greater comfort during impact with the ground; while the forefoot section has stiffer characteristics, which achieves greater energy return making it easier to take off.

Outsole

The outsole of these shoes features fairly prominent square lugs that provide respectable traction on asphalt, although it should be noted that the grip of the shoes is less on wet ground.

The design of the outsole also allows for good flexibility and the movements of the foot in the transition from heel to toe to be as natural as possible.

With these features the Reebok FloatRide Run becomes a very good option for training and medium paced races, although it can also be adapted to races in which we expect a good mark. Its unique and modern style will attract attention, so we will also have a shoe that will make us look fashionable. We could not miss the sneaker trend.
