ASICS Metasleek

What reviewers said

• +Extremely light — Running Warehouse notes it weighs about 4.3 oz, making it a very lightweight training shoe.
• +Sagasu Running reports it is "probably the best shoe I've ever worn to do hill sprints and sort of a hill workout" and praises ASICS's marketing approach of "stripping away the excess and putting the focus back on the athlete." Another reviewer is "equal parts excited" about the concept, intrigued by the ride character.
• !The most prominent flaw cited is extreme overpricing — one reviewer states it is the most overpriced product they have ever seen as a consumer.
• !The shoe has a low stack height (reportedly 30 mm of Turbo Squared foam) and is unplated, which means it lacks the bounce and rocker of modern plated super-shoes.

The cited creator reviews, watchable — press play to jump to the moment each one informed the verdict.

“there is one more comparison here that I think if you made it this far, you're probably wondering, and that's with this shoe, the ASICS Metasleek. But I'm going to talk about how these two shoes work together in my review for the Metasleek, which will be coming out in a few days from the release of this video.”
