Our verdict

What we liked

  • Striking Aesthetic Features a bold Black and Silver color combination that stands out.
  • Luxury Silhouette Balenciaga-inspired design with an extended outer sole for a high-end look.
  • Reliable Cushioning Equipped with a high-quality memory foam insole for underfoot comfort.
  • Enhanced Stability Includes a TPU piece in the midsole to provide structural support.
  • Safety Feature Features a reflective material pull tab at the back for visibility in the dark.

Could be better

  • Visual Discrepancy The silver detailing on the black body can look slightly "off" in person compared to product photos.
  • Styling Difficulty The chunky design is hard to pair with anything other than relaxed or baggy outfits.
  • Increased Weight Noticeably heavier than typical lightweight trainers due to its layered construction.
  • Design Clash The internal insole color does not match the external metallic aesthetic.
  • High Maintenance The silver accents and mesh material are prone to trapping dust and require frequent cleaning.
