Product Description
For the neutral performance runner seeking lightweight efficiency with a highly responsive durable forward ride. Durable enough to be used as an everyday trainer yet light enough to double as a racing flat, the Flow Trainer is suitable for the widest variety of speeds and distances. This model's softer EVA combined with a directly placed fulcrum delivers increased forward propulsion, diminishes braking and promotes a naturally comfortable ride.

I posted a version of this review on a competitor's site and so loved these shoes that I thought I would post it here as well...These are one of those shoes that hooks you a few miles into your first run with them. They are firm, but not punishing (like, say the first NB MR10s), with a nice bit of resiliency added. The fulcrum "technology" actually seems to function really well. You find yourself seeking out a midfoot strike - and when you do the footfall is silent and very smooth. The denser material that the fulcrum is made of adds a bit of stability that this neutral runner found rather pleasing. It's hard to describe, but your feet just feel solid and still as they go through the gait. The upper is nice and smooth on top of your foot, with nothing in the way of hotspots. Most people will want to hook a lace through the rearmost spot if you don't want slippage. Overall, this is a wonderful shoe - particularly if you want something that's no-nonsense, in the range of firmness of a Mizuno, and brings a unique sensation to the table in terms of the fulcrum-affected footstrike (very pleasing when you're running economically). An impressive effort from a company that hasn't even warranted being on my radar in the past. I love these more and more as time goes on. I've currently got about 140 miles on these, and look forward to each run. They are probably my current favorite road shoes in my sizeable collection. Check out the trail shoes built on the same platform as well!
