So much fun!First a word of caution. You have to know how to run in these. Your biomechanics need to be excellent, and you should have substantial running experience. They seem wildly unstable at first, and a novice or a pronator won’t do well in them. But if you can handle them, they are magnificent. Zippy, super fast, bouncy, they get you to your next stride so quickly it’s almost startling. I can go quite long in them - 10 miles without a problem - because their technology aligns perfectly with good neutral biomechanics. All in all, an awesome shoe.
A Modern Update to an Old School FlatI own too many shoes and this is my favorite. The new Lightstrike Pro is protective and provides a nice snap. While this shoe does let you feel the ground, it isn’t harsh or too direct. I now own two pairs and will probably buy a 3rd.

Awesome flat with super foam techI am so stoked this shoe is available again in the states. It is one of the best traditional racing flats on the market but using super shoe foam. You can use it to jog in or do practically any workout session from marathon down to mile pace and faster. It's responsive enough for all speeds and yet retains a good amount of cushion to remove harsh impacts out of the equation. I've been using it for both track and road speed sessions from 3k to 10k paces (low to high 5 min/mile) and they are sublime in that regard. Thanks for making these available again!
Feel the ground again.Right now (before the Streakfly 2 comes out), if you asked me to choose between this shoe and every other shoe in the closet (including Adidas Takumi Sen 10, Asics Metaspeed Sky, Saucony Sinister, Nike Streakfly, and more) and just this shoe, I would says, "Adios" to all the others. The fit is prefect, the responsiveness snappy, and the joy of just feeling the ground in every stride makes this my favorite shoe by far. Now, if they can just get some more color ways available, we can all be happy.

Non nonsense shoeLove this shoe. Happy to see some updated flats w super foam. Reminds me of the Saucony Sinister.
Would be perfect for track workouts and casual runs. I could use this as a daily trainer too
