Tenth Marathon 2.0, a competitively priced proposal to run comfortably, confidently and with the desire to add more kilometers

After dedicating a few training sessions to them, I want to share my personal analysis of the new update of the Tenth Marathon 2.0 Here are my impressions, sensations and reflections on a model that, in my opinion, is well worth taking into account. Now, my experience is only that of a person who likes to run, who tries different running shoes without pre-judging them, and who values above all the balance between quality, functionality, performance and price.

Having said that, I will tell you that these Tenth Marathon 2.0 are born with the idea of offering a balanced and versatile running shoe. Their premise caught my attention: a model with a competitive price point, but one that doesn't forgo technologies and materials usually found in higher-end shoes. I was intrigued to know if this adjustment between cost and performance could be real or if I would find some too obvious sacrifice. I can tell you that the price/performance ratio is very well set.

The Tenth Marathon 2.0 by Décimas does not claim to be the most cushioned or lightest shoe on the market, but it does offer an interesting combination of stability, comfort and performance. In addition, they have refined some aspects with respect to their first version, keeping the same technological base but adjusting it a little more, which translates into a more successful model in global terms.

Context of the Tenth Marathon 2.0 shoe within the Décimas brand

Context of the Tenth Marathon 2.0 shoe within the Décimas brand

The Décimas brand, belonging to the Spanish multinational Sport Street, has in its Tenth performance line the option to position itself highly by offering quality products at a more affordable price compared to the big names in the running universe. We know that there are running shoes with very high prices and ultra-technological components, and it is easy to think that the cheaper alternatives are not up to par. My initial thought was to see if Tenth's Marathon 2.0 fell short in any key areas. However, this new update proves that a lower priced product is not necessarily a lesser option.

Within Tenth's proposition, the Marathon 2.0 is meant to be the versatile and functional shoe that any runner, whether beginner or experienced, can incorporate into their rotation. It does not aspire to become a hyper-famous model, but rather that model with which you go out and run smoothly, safely and reliably.

First impressions of the Tenth Marathon 2.0

First impressions of the Tenth Marathon 2.0

First point that surprised me: their design. They have a sober look, with modern touches and a Jacquard fabric that can be seen at a glance. There is a care in the finish that I did not expect in this price range. The lightness has also caught my attention: we are talking about 268 grams (in size 42), which is very good. Although it's not the lightest shoe on the market, its behavior doesn't feel heavy either.

When I put them on I noticed a comfortable fit, with a wide last in the front that allows the toes to relax and not be so compressed.

Running for the first time with them, I was surprised by the feel of the EverPulse midsole. It's not extremely soft cushioning, but the foam feels springy and stable. I thought that the 6 mm drop would require a longer adaptation period, but it was not the case. I'm used to higher drops, and yet the landing and transition were quite natural from the start.

Tenth Marathon 2.0 Runner Profile

Who are these Tenth Marathon 2.0's intended for? I think they fit well for a wide range of runners. The main idea is that they are not a maximum cushioning shoe, but enough to run comfortably, securely and stably.

Runners with medium or even heavy weights will find in this shoe an ally to run at slow, controlled and smooth paces, especially in medium distances. It is not a shoe to go at full speed or to run rapid series. Its strength lies in offering a pleasant and reliable ride.

I also see it as an ideal first shoe for someone who is just starting to run and doesn't want to spend a fortune. Or even for those who already have more radical and super runnig models, but want a versatile model in their closet for recovery days, those quiet runs after a hard race or a very demanding training. In short, a versatile training shoe that will cover your basic needs to run in a more conscious and relaxed way, without paying much attention to the time.

What we liked most about the Tenth Marathon 2.0

What we liked most about the Tenth Marathon 2.0

I start with the EverPulse midsole. Although it does not provide the sensation of running on a cloud, so trendy in the latest releses on the market, it does transmit a pleasant cushioning and a response that is noticeable. The dual density from heel to midfoot helps maintain a controlled stride, and the width of the forefoot last gives that feeling of confidence. In these days of training with the Tenth Marathon 2.0 I have not had the feeling of being in an unstable or insecure shoe.

The jacquard upper fabric is another plus point: it breathes better than the previous version of the Tenth Marathon 1.0, which is appreciated when you spend long minutes adding miles, especially in warmer conditions or in runs with high humidity. This redesign of the upper has also helped to lighten the shoe without losing its essence.

The outsole with Organic Grip compound, on the other hand, has given me good sensations on asphalt and sidewalks. I have also run on rainy days without noticing dangerous slips. It is not a pure all-terrain outsole, but it responds quite well on different surfaces, which for me is an added valor. I like knowing that I can go out for a run without worrying too much about whether the ground is a little wet.

Opportunities for improvement in the Tenth Marathon 2.0

Of course, there is also some detail to polish in this shoe. I am aware that this is a matter of personal taste and needs, but the fit has been a point to take into account. I had to tighten the laces more than usual to feel that the foot was really supported, especially in the instep area. This is not a serious problem, but if the lacing is not done properly, the foot can be a little loose. Perhaps some change in the lacing system, or a more wraparound fit in the upper, would help in this regard.

As for the cushioning, it's in a middle ground that suits me fine, but I understand that those looking for extra protection on long runs or with a higher body weight might miss a couple more millimeters of foam in the midsole. However, you have to assume that more cushioning could affect both weight and stability. This shoe is all about balance, and perhaps increasing the cushioning level would unbalance the Tenth Marathon 2.0

What could be the direct rivals of the Tenth Marathon 2.0

What could be the direct rivals of the Tenth Marathon 2.0?

There is no doubt about it, in the current market there are many options in this price range, and we usually tend to think that, being cheaper, they are not worth it. But this is not always the case. The Tenth Marathon 2.0 comes to prove that a competitively priced product can be functional, perform well, and even present a current design.

Why do I recommend these Tenth Marathon 2.0

Why do I recommend these Tenth Marathon 2.0?

I have to say that the Tenth Marathon 2.0 have been a pleasant surprise. At first I had the typical idea that, being more affordably priced, they would be missing something essential. However, after several sessions, I can say that this is not the case. I don't think there is such a thing as a bad running shoe generally speaking. There will always be a runner profile, a type of training or a context in which a model fits perfectly. And these Marathon 2.0 fit in many more contexts than I could imagine at first.

I have enjoyed them on light runs, recoveries, short and medium outings, and even on the occasional day with slightly damp terrain. They have offered me adequate breathability, a grippy outsole, balanced cushioning and light enough to not feel heavy. In any case, the Tenth Marathon 2.0 is an example that competitive price is not synonymous with mediocre product. Here you have functional shoes with technologies that, without being revolutionary, effectively fulfill their function, offering optimum performance and a modern look.

For the runner looking for a reliable and affordable model, whether as a first shoe or as a companion for more relaxed days, the Tenth Marathon 2.0 is worth a try. In the end, running is such a personal thing that the most important thing is that you feel comfortable, confident and eager to put in the miles. And with these shoes, at least in my personal case, that desire has not been lacking.
