Thanks for this review. Yesterday, I gambled and bought the Flame 3 from this brand as it was on sale. My main concern was the sizing as on AliExpress I didn't know if it was displaying UK or US sizing. Hopefully, it fits. This Eleos shoe seems interesting. Really enjoy your comparisons. Very comprehensive and informative review.
Never got around to commenting on this review video, but this was very thorough! I think this will be a slept on daily trainer as it's not saucony, new balance, hoka, or ON. I'm very much looking forward to the release of this model as I currently need something for recovery days as I'm rotating through three pairs of Mach 5's due to their wide stable base. Great review and content! Just subscribed!
@@JW-ri1mb I ran in the Invincible 1, not the Invincible 2 or 3. For my purposes, I’d much rather run in the Eleos. It can do more. It feels comfortable at any pace and distance. In fact, I just did a hilly 19 miles in them this morning at a very easy aerobic pace. The Invincibles were fun for me, but more of a recovery shoe or a squishy shoe for easy base days. If you really want that squishy cushion, I don’t know that the Eleos will give you all of it. But the cushion is bouncy and comfortable.
Thanks! 361° has origins in China in the early 2000s but has made headway in the running specialty sector during the past 10-15 years. I don’t know what their brand presence is like in Europe, but they are fairly prominent in Asia and gaining market visibility in the Americas.
I just got these and im doing a 5K race with my gf soon. Im not going for speed or trying to get a super good finish time. Just a nice cruise 5K. Would these be good for that and obviously my longer runs? Thank you!
@@jay1572 absolutely. This is a very versatile shoe. You can pick up the pace if you want or just cruise. And I’ve taken it on several 20-mile runs since this review dropped, and the cushion & response hold up well for the long haul.
The Eleos is starkly different than the Nimbus 25. It’s much lighter and peppier. The Nimbus is softer and mushier. I compare them directly at 9:48 on the video.
I usually buy a 14 or 13 wide due to my wide foot. I just bought these in a 13 regular, as I found they run big. The 13 regular had a wider toe box than my 13 Wide new balances, and much more comfortable. IMO, they're already wide. Can't wait to go for my first long run in them
Neo Vista is more of a plated, premium super trainer. There might be some crossover in use, but I wouldn’t really put them in the same category. That would be like comparing a stretch limousine with a regular four-door sedan. I don’t know, maybe there are better analogies than that! 🤣

Thanks for watching! I hope the Flame works out for you!
Nice Review 👌
Thanks for watching!
I have the 361 Flame ST amazing shoe.
I saw Anthony Famiglietti run a sub-4 mile on a treadmill in that shoe!

Thanks for the sub!
Excellent review. 👍
Thanks for watching!
How are these compared to the older Nike zoomx invincible 2's? Been looking for a good successor to my favorite shoe and this looks similar.

@@thecaptainchas2820how to approach the 361 company to get them ship u the shoe for review?

Looks like asics nimbus 25

not in wide sadly
@@jesusgonzalez-zp1fr Yeah, that’s too bad. And they fit fairly snug. Sorry, man.

@@mrhine83 thanks I really like how they look
Why did you you not compare it with the Mizuno Neo Vista?
Neo Vista is more of a plated, premium super trainer. There might be some crossover in use, but I wouldn’t really put them in the same category. That would be like comparing a stretch limousine with a regular four-door sedan. I don’t know, maybe there are better analogies than that! 🤣
@@thecaptainchas2820that comparison is true because the mizuno has a plate 😂
