REEBOK FLOATRIDE ENERGY X - Long Run Review - EDDBUD
Today I tested the REEBOK FLOATRIDE ENERGY X over a 12 miles or 19 km ish distance in some dry and warm conditions with around 5 mph winds with some 12c temps.
At around 7:55 /mi pace on todays run keeping at an easy long run pace aside from 6 x 200m reps later in the run at harder effort.
I discuss the upper, midsole and outsole performance on what is my typical and regular long run route in terms of distance, elevation and location.

Excellent real world review again, even a Weather and temp forecast from the John Kettley of insole Gussets. You are the Grandmaster Funk.
Reebok are so overlooked. They have really upped their running shoe game recently. I'm starting to become a fan.
Great brand and cheap as anything.
I'm up to 17 miles on these so far. Longest run around 7 miles in these as I've been out on the trails mainly. Impressive so far, nice cruising shoe. Done a slow easy run in then too which felt effortlessly.
Been using these as my faster training and parkrun shoe. Love them.
Hello, this is true to size, or do you recommend go a half size down??
A top 3 shoe for me. Excellent review
Thanks Owen. It left the legs feeling superb!
The exhaust port hahahh! Love it. Great review as always Sir Bud
Picked mine up for less than 100 earth credits. Not had chance to use them yet but looking forward to it!
Thanks!
Supporting the channel is very appreciated
Just got mine for $30 lightly used. Can't wait to use them. I've been using my trusty Gorun ride 7 and zoom fly FK.
For 30?! Superb value
Covered 50+ miles in mine. A very good marathon training shoe. Done a couple of long steady paced runs in these. Wouldnt race in them and not really for shorter quicker stuff but would go the distance and great reebok discount VFM.👍
King of the value long slow run
EddBud...The Renegade of Funk Footwear Reviews
Love this and an absolute steal at around $100 with a discount code. They're like an Endorphin Speed that leans a little slower/easier. They're more stable and great from recovery to uptempo. Very versatile. They don't have quite the all out speed for faster intervals, but are a very capable training shoe otherwise. They really can handle most run types and don't feel too agressive at easy paces.
Excellent locked in cruiser for very versatile as you say aside from the race paces.
Ron Goodwin's 633 Squadron is an absolute classic soundtrack to an average war film.
Hi Ed. Cure for tongue slip I made two slits with a Stanley knife to the upper of the tongue to thread the laces through just like on many other shoes, worked a treat. Bit of advice, the rubber tongue cuts easy but the material between the rubber and your foot is tougher to get through but you don't need to, if you thread the laces between the rubber and the material the laces won't touch the top of your foot, I didn't but I did not feel the laces on my 11½ mile run.
Good call Roger. Might try that 👍🏼
At first I thought mango and cheese was a bizarre combination. The more I think about it, the more I want to try it. Your son may be on to something there.. 😆
I ran a 100K ultra with these shoes and they accomplished what I expected. My feet stay sharp to the last km (except the leg fatigue )
Yes super forgiving shoes
Thanks.
You're welcome
Cruising at 7:55 per mile 😳 That's almost a full on sprint for me and my short ass legs 😂 Great effort man 💪🏻
I always seem to perform better after a gig. I can remember resting all day and drink the appropriate amount of water and couldn’t run for toffee!
@@EDDBUD Haha like it! Maybe that's where I'm going wrong then 😂
@@paulmulks Best half marathon race time was after a gig and 4 hours sleep. Perfect preparation!
@@EDDBUD started running in the early morning because of the summer heat now so waking up at 0500 with some 4 hours of sleep but my runs are excellent. I feel tired in the afternoon but the running wakes you up. I did not like the Energy 3. I found the upper cheap feeling and the midsole heavy and not much energy return. Great for the €49 I paid for it.. I can see that the upper is much nicer on the X but is the midsole the same as the Energy Floatride 3 just with a plate?
I had my initial run in the Energy X, 13.24 miles and 525ft of elevation. Yes it is a comfortable cruiser. It’s great for road and no so good for bumpy light trails due to the higher stack. More cruising or testing required 😎
It’s something new and more comfortable than the other contenders for daily use.
Love mine. Nothing too long in them yet though. Zero tongue slippage for me, I can feel the gusset inside every now and again. Batters my calves tho!!! No other shoe gives me calf doms. 🤷♂️🤷♂️
Alas, Reebok I love thee much. Wonder why they haven't got a shoe to fit every single niche.....cos I would buy them all!!!
Such a good shoe. Getting better actually with each run
Power to the people … Back…
Bought them on Reebok website for 64 quids (delivery included) and tested today at the running track. If you are looking for a cheap pair of super shoes long distance oriented, these are definitely the shoes for you. I can't understand why Reebok made them so unnecessarily heavy (aka rigid heel counter and bulky extra foam on the heel). Shaving a bit of weight, it could be a very good pair of super shoes. Maybe not fastest, but certainly very comfortable. After a tough session, the next day your legs will feel ready to go, again!
Rather soft and forgiving for steady pace
As a high mileage bod, I don't usually spend this sort of money on R shoes .. at least not for
training, it gets too expensive! (especially in the present climate)
But, having had 12 pairs of FloatRide (they're so durable!), I'll make an exception for
these. Probably not for 'every day' though.. races and 'treats' maybe ;-)
Hope they've made plenty, think they will prove very popular
Just for fun, thought I'd have a look how the numbers stack up against my 12 pairs of the
venerable, basic Floatride V1/V2, which could always be picked up well discounted.....
particularly the first generation, which could sometimes be found for 45 quid.
12 prs Floatride V1 and V2 (average price 50 quid) = £600
12 prs £130 - (say) 10% dis = £117 ----------------------- = £1404
12 prs £130 - (say) 15% dis = £ 110.50 ------------------- = £1326
Be interesting to see what they can be had for, next year, when the new line appears.....
Edd Debris Bud 🤙🏽
Sometimes when I’m running one of the worst things to happen is rocks and stones getting into your shoes. This means you have to stop to untie your shoe and take it out. This breaks my rhythm and sometimes it’s very difficult or takes very long to get the rhythm back.
Still deciding to get one or not….. because I will have occasional foot ache wearing next %, so slightly probated sole sounds not attractive 🤨🤨🤨 to me
I've got mixed feelings about these. They feel fine during my mid length runs - roughly 10-15k - but my legs are sore afterwards. Much more so than with my Hoka Carbon X2s or Novablast 2s. I find the midsole a bit firm, and they're noticably heavier than the X2s and less bouncy than the Novablasts. I've done about 50k in them and hoping they'll soften up! The tongue slippage is really annoying too - i've never had that problem in any other shoe.
The carbon x 2 wasn’t good for me. The novablast was a good daily but the reebok has a more plush feel that I like for an easy long run.
Hey Ed, have you done the Boston 10 mod yet where you wanted to remove the plate in the heel?
Need to get stuck into that one this weekend 👍🏼
@@EDDBUD Please also try to make a Reebok Symmetros mod by removing the plastic heel clip! Would love to see that
Hi Ed! Energy floatride 4 (fantastic!) upper + energy X midsole= ??? What do you think?
A winning combo I would say
Can’t seem to get my socks thin enough these days, do you have a favourite thin pair please Edd?? I just ordered some from Rockay which were very reasonably priced AND made from recycled materials!!!! Do you know them?🤞🏻🤞🏻🤞🏻🤞🏻Hope I like ‘em!!
I like Rockay and the Nike spark lightweight socks. Avoid the race socks they are terrible!
@@EDDBUD Oh great!! Thanks so much!!
6:43 Use the force
40 Miles a week?!, thats good going Edd, back yourself boss, most cant even be bothered to run let alone 40 Miles.
Got myself a pair last week. Unfortunately I went by the sizeguide online instead of my previous experience with FE3 and my pair size EU42 turned up and they are 27cm and way too long. Can't swap them yet since they're out of stock of the right size. Might have to keep them in the box for a while until the hopefully restock :(
Hope you can switch them up soon
I just saw the size guide in the site and EU 42/US9 is 26,2 the EU 43/US10 is 27,1. I was going to buy the EU 43 because it says 27,1cm, but now it seems it will be huge as the difference between 1 size is almost 1cm, if you are correct the EU 43 will have 27,9 cm instead of 27,1 (reebok sizeguide)
@@r.cordis8251 yeah check the size guide for FE4 and go with that. I did like you and checked the size guide and it doesn’t match reality. It was labelled EU42 27cm on the tag on the actual shoe. Just returned my pair yesterday since they never stocked up in EU41 but all other sizes for some reason 😂
@@christiankarlsson4368 I don’t know why but reebok in the X made only full sizes, so they will have UK 7/EU 40,5 or UK 8 /EU 42 you won´t find a UK7,5/EU 41. But if the EU42 is 27cm as you said (did you measure with a tape to check?) and in the size guide is stated 26,2 it is 0,8cm bigger than stated, if we assume the sizeguide is all wrong the EU 40,5/UK 7 has 25,4 at the sizeguide, adding 0,8 it will probably have 26,2cm (exactly what you was looking for), so you could have changed for the EU40,5. Tried to compare as you said with the FE4 table and it seems that the X table should be increased by 0,5cm to be comparable to the FFE4. Besides that I also have a wider feet and hope that the toebox is not narrow, very difficult to buy a shoe online, but I will have to import it so I need luck. Thanks.
@@r.cordis8251 Alright thanks for clarifying about the sizing. Very confusing to say the least. Oh well got a pair of FE4 for €50 instead so quite happy. Might reorder the x again in the future or just try the Salomon Glide Max instead :)
Dear Edd. I have a question? Can I use these shoes for training 10 km or only is recomend for marathons and half marathon? Best regards 🙏🏽
Bit bulky for 10k but a good trainer.
@@EDDBUD thank you Edd
Hello, this is true to size, or do you recommend go a half size down??
You could perhaps get away with a half size down
Outsole wear?....I should be so lucky, i've had protruding nodules on my outsole for years!
How would these compare to the Puma deviate nitro elite?
Much heavier. More a long run comfortable option for me.
Where is the best place to get Reebok discount codes
Have a good search around on the net. Readily available.
Bro what do u recommend best for long walking thanks
Invincible if you want squash. Otherwise the new Puma foreverrun nitro.
Do you think which one is better? floatride energy x vs deviate nitro 2
The Puma is more versatile
Edd - off topic, but advice needed! Sportshoes with the podium 20% sale. Would you go for alphaflys at £160, Vaporflys at £145 or Sen 8 at £108? Can only justify one but can't decide which is the best deal!
Hmmm. A hard choice. If you want a less constructive shoe the VF is the way to go. The sen 8 and AF are more restrictive and present in the arch. All 3 fly. The VF would be my personal choice for racing versatility.
Picked mine up in the sale for £68. At that price this shoe is absolute bargain. I mainly use them for quicker runs, 8 miles and over.
Online?
@@yakiweiss546 Yes, last week Reebok (UK) had them reduced to £91. There was also a 25% discount code online which could be used off the sale. Cracking deal.
@@paulmarson3963 Thanks 🙏
@@paulmarson3963 25% over £91? where can I find it ...
My legs feel beat up 8 mile plus in these. I'll try them again soon, but I'm not a fan.
I’m surprised. Had zero issues at all in them.
Same for me. They rolled along nicely but my legs felt beaten up afterwards - much more so than with my Hoka Carbon X2s on the same route at a similar pace. Combination of a firmer midsole and more weight to blame I guess.
Dragonfly vs metaspeed LD?
I’m not quick enough to warrant two spikes. By all accounts the LD is pretty good though.

Pas de Calias, as the French would say.
I think all these cancelled fights are caused by someone stealing the main dish from Heathrow.
