Our verdict

What we liked

  • Unbelievable Value I can't believe such a high-quality shoe is available for just ₹1100.
  • Aggressive Look It looks very sporty and aggressive on the feet.
  • Stable Ride It's not overly soft/bouncy, which is great for people who prefer stability over squishiness.
  • Cool Details The glossy green TPU patch on the sole looks very unique.
  • Solid Grip The grip is amazing, thanks to the TPR sole.

Could be better

  • Insole The insole is decent but could have been improved considering how good the rest of the shoe is.
