Should you, like me, have been a fan of the unique (and hate change of any type), let me get one factor out of the best way: The brand new-and-improved Blissfeel is extra just like the unique than totally different, which I believe is an effective factor. The most important improve is the shoe’s higher, which now contains a reshaped, layered textile higher that extends via the heel to hug the complete foot. (The unique model did this swoopy factor that went up towards the heel and had extra of a “trend sneaker” vibe, IMO.) It sounds prefer it would not make an enormous distinction (and for some, it may not), however as somebody who places help first in a working shoe, I’ll say that my total foot felt actually snug and safe whereas strolling my canine or clocking a couple of miles on the treadmill. I am not a long-distance runner, so I can not communicate to working a marathon in these by any means — however for informal jogs or boot-camp lessons (I am again on my Barry’s grind), these have been nice. For something extra intense — or for mountaineering and path working — I’d go for one thing just like the Chargefeel Mid since I really like a thicker, cushiony outsole that offers the feeling of weightless velocity.
