nico it’s valentine’s day and i have no girl and i just ran 21 miles which is 8 more than iv ever done and your like half the reason why i did it so ty
Super comfy BUT possibly too much so - high heel and I suspect all the padding ended up with calf / Achilles injuries - went back to a flat much less padded shoe and injuries went away Don't get me wrong I love them but more for walking and maybe a light recovery day
I personally really like running in barefoot shoes. They put a lot of strain on your calf as t first because your legs and feet are getting used to running without any cushioning but you'll notice your feet and legs get much stronger. It also forces you to land mid foot otherwise it will hurt to heel strike, so your form should be good wearing them. Hard to wear, but I'm definitely a fan.
Amazing how not too long ago, the shoes coy have us believing that zero drop, zero cushion is the best shoes to run in, and now they have us believing running on a mattress is the way to go.
oh I agree fully, yes, those are crazy prices, it's just the reality of it. I'm into music production and the same story applies there too. Cheers !@@brodywebb_xctrack
No just why would I spend 275 on these when they are not superior to the Alphafly 3 and I can buy Vaporflys which are arguably a better shoe for less. Seems crazy to me. If hoka and other brands brought to market elite shoes that were as good as Nike at a cheaper price people would buy them but if I have 275 dollars for a pair of race shoes I’m buying Alphaflys or vaporflys every single day.
Thanks for this vid! Hokas are so great!
Your running is soooo smooth!!! Keep it up!
Yo! Thanks for the recommendation! I’ll definitely be trying them out!
I love hokas they’re so comfy. The best part is they actually stay tied lol
nico it’s valentine’s day and i have no girl and i just ran 21 miles which is 8 more than iv ever done and your like half the reason why i did it so ty
I’ve always liked the look of Hokas but they always feel a little too lose on my ankles.
I just got a pair and I felt that same thing. I did the runners loop to fix it and it worked! Maybe try it for yourself and it will hopefully fix it?
Yea good shout. If anyone doesn’t know what the runners loop is, Nico has a video on it on his channel
The heel lock down is always an issue for me
Lose lol. Population is very dumb.
Love the quick summary!!!!
My fav race day shoes so far.
Ahhh the bounce 👌👌👌 those shoes are on my wish list now
I just ordered some was very hesitant because of the money But I heard more good than bad bottom, so I’m gonna give him a shot!
Me proceeding to $275 times PHP 56 equals half of my monthly salary 💀😅
Dudes got that “Ay papi!” run 😂
What does it mean? I don’t get it😅
Love the shoes - hate the laces. Have come undone in last two races.
literally got these bc of Nico saying how much he loves these haha so far so good
Love the socks 🧦
im a nike fan but hokas just look sooo comfy. the only down side are their color ways 😂
Can't decide...these or the Endorphin Pro 4
I tried them and loved them
Rival is Adidas prime x 2. Alphafly is in a different leauge
Hello. These shoes look like a child of Adidas pro 3 and Nike Vaporfly 2% :) best regards.
Love your videos so much ❤
But are they BETTER than the alpha fly’s? 🤔
good for half et full marathon, not sure they are the best for 10km or 5km
In Thailand, you get this for USD257.
What would make them a 10?
Love the vids nico keep it up man
Can you please do a time laps on getting the flow again❤
Nico are you going to try the alphafly 3s?
Super comfy BUT possibly too much so - high heel and I suspect all the padding ended up with calf / Achilles injuries - went back to a flat much less padded shoe and injuries went away
Don't get me wrong I love them but more for walking and maybe a light recovery day
"Not making me make this video."
"They're paying me to make this video."
Great video, but you mentioned “I didn’t even have to break them in” imo a race show should never have to be broken into.
What is your recommendation for day to day running shoes?
The color will help you to be more visible. What is your opinion on running in no ahoes or minimal shoes?
I personally really like running in barefoot shoes. They put a lot of strain on your calf as t first because your legs and feet are getting used to running without any cushioning but you'll notice your feet and legs get much stronger. It also forces you to land mid foot otherwise it will hurt to heel strike, so your form should be good wearing them. Hard to wear, but I'm definitely a fan.
Are these just race day shoes or can you train in them ?
How are these compared to new balance super comp 2 ? Thanks 🙏🏻
Why do most marathon runner run from heel to toe, I was always thought to run on the ball of me foot
? Most marathon runners especially elite runners do land mid to forefoot? Not sure where you are seeing all the heel striking? 🧐
I've got beef with Hoka as they has very limited availability on wide fitting shoes. Anyone know a good brand for wide footed people?
Nike will always probably be king of the marathon racing shoe, but good to see other brands making it interesting
Are they better than the vaporfly 3’s
Try loosening the laces event a little bit. You're stuffing your foot in with 8+ inches of lace to spare.
this is true , i love mine also
Any idea when the skyward x is going to drop?
Hoka are the best.!
love your content! hope you see this!
Adidas hats are the bomb. 💣
Is it better than alpha flys tho?
Amazing how not too long ago, the shoes coy have us believing that zero drop, zero cushion is the best shoes to run in, and now they have us believing running on a mattress is the way to go.
❤Cielo❤
How do you afford all of these shoes
I'm guessing......a job? Sponsors? Is $275 a lot of money? For equipment you need to perform, I don't think so, most of us have 300$ Nikes
@@Dubsteppah yes $275 is a lot of money for some shoes
oh I agree fully, yes, those are crazy prices, it's just the reality of it. I'm into music production and the same story applies there too. Cheers !@@brodywebb_xctrack
Vs Nike Alphafly 3???
outdoor boys is fire
TTS?
Heavy ASF, compared with the vaporfly 3!
How can I block this?
What is your college degree?
He avoided saying its name…lol…so how you say Cielo?
I love Hoka but my gosh their color ways in Canada are terrible. At least in the US you get some normal neutrals. I don’t know what they’re thinking 🤔
He looks like the guy from Taylor swifts wildest dream video
U da best Nico
🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
I can’t wait until the day running 10 miles is slight work let alone 3 😂
Can't buy them unfortunately they don't have wide sizes.
Need to donet running shoes bro because we are poor ❤😢
❤️❤️

They look like clean shoes😂 probably because the color way
Hey I have some races coming up and I’m wondering what the best 800/1600 racing shoes are that aren’t spikes,
got any suggestions anyone…
🥳🙏🏽❤️🤗
Bro try abros hyperflex
We all need Jesus ❤❤
omg i so want thosr
All these running shoes are starting to look the same like how bad Nikes looks with that big foam thing on the bottom
That color is fire. Too much flavor for you
Lookin like aap3 at the bottom.
I was expecting real racing shoes
Too expensive, will it make you a race winner ? Surely not, so why spend so much?
Hoka are ROSS specials…. No thank you
Can u please send me a BPN x CIELE hat for free because u work with bpn if not still love the videos keep it up
How much did they pay u to promote 🤣
How deaf are you 😂
@@THEORD3REMP1RE u can Believe that if u want to 😂dickhead
Dude got sponsored and expects us to believe he suddenly went from a Nike fanboy to a hoka joker in five minutes.
Way too heavy....just way to heavy.
Say less!
I am a Hoka guy. This is one of my least favourite Hoka shoes. I can see why a Nike guy like you would love this shoes. It’s not Hoka like.
Your girl is cheating on you.
And I'm fking your girl
If they work that’s cool but those are some ugly ass shoes.
