New
Balance Zante
I can
personally say that these are the best running shoes I have ever used in my
life. These shoes have special material and made to make runners feel comfortable
while they run. The featherweight Zante has ample cushioning in the heel, and a
solid feel under the forefoot for a quick toe-off. The upward angle of the toe
further speeds the transition from landing to launch. The forefoot is wide and
breathable. Several testers found it hard to get the tension right around the
midfoot, which hugs the arch tightly, but all praised the shoe's weight; many
said it could double as a racing flat. The Zante (named for a beach in
Greece) uses New Balance's Fresh Foam material in a go-fast package—where it
gives its best performance to date. This less-dense version of the foam
provides strong cushioning in the heel but is solid under the ball, propelling
your foot quickly off the toe. Featuring a new shoe shape that hugs around the
arch (some felt it is too tight), a low-profile midsole and a pronounced toe
spring, the Zante could be the lovechild of New Balance's Boracay and their
popular 1400 racing flat. Testers praise the lightweight performance; they say
how "snappy" the shoe feels underfoot, while still providing
cushioning. "The ride from these shoes is absorbing and bouncy, smooth and
fast," a tester says. I fully agree with what they say. If anyone is
looking for a good running shoe, I highly recommend these shoes. They sell them
at runners high and sports authority. You can also order them online.
