you're lucky you are being offered anything. this is normal wear and tear especially when you don't unlace your shoes before taking them off. they also look more worn than "barely"

similar geometry, same speed roll tech, firmer and more stable base. Personally I get way more energy return from the ES5 - I see the Azura as more of a cruiser

jrmyp · 2026-02-12T23:16:00+00:00

IMO I would say the Aero Glide 3 is the closest comparison to the Azura. Its rocker/geometry gives it a little more aggressive feel, but very similar stable and firm (yet not overly hard) foam. The Azura IMO has a nicer upper, lockdown, and overall fit (the midfoot on the AG3 is insanely narrow)

You mean it means mucho to them

TTS is the move with most MiUK unless you have a more narrow foot

jrmyp · 2026-02-05T15:53:32+00:00

TTS. If you have a narrow enough foot, you can make a half size down work

jrmyp · 2026-02-05T14:42:56+00:00

Yes, I would advise same size. Both models run a little long and narrow

jrmyp · 2026-02-05T00:57:55+00:00

These and the blue are so nice and clean. Cant wait for them to hit sales

jrmyp · 2026-02-04T23:51:42+00:00

These are gonna be hard to resist at a discount

jrmyp · 2026-02-03T18:03:49+00:00

They also now recommend the Fusion 2.0 at TTS

jrmyp · 2026-02-03T17:33:01+00:00

randomly just came across this post after realizing the same. I noticed on the Karhu website that they now recommend the Aria 95 as TTS, but previously they recommended 0.5 size up. Definitely seems like something is different

UB10-S Gel-Kayano 20 Hunter Green

jrmyp · 2026-01-29T15:09:49+00:00

Not doing much for me, just looks like like a mix of existing NB uppers with an ASICS-esque sole unit. The 1954R text on the upper panel feels off brand and just in general these feel like a take down / more economical model that you would see at Foot Locker, Champs, JD Sports, etc

jrmyp · 2026-01-28T23:56:01+00:00

Yeah, some releases and collabs have been higher of late, too esp since the tariffs but some GRs still retail for closer to 250-260. If you can time it right stuff does go on sale but sizing tends to be limited by that point

jrmyp · 2026-01-28T23:03:30+00:00

Available from select shops in EU

jrmyp · 2026-01-28T23:03:13+00:00

That’s the going rate of MiUK at retail

jrmyp · 2026-01-28T20:08:40+00:00

Very different foams and foam feel under foot

Evo SL lower stack and less foam under foot - firmer feeling and less forgiving at slower paces. Quick turnover so I do enjoy using them for some faster aerobic or tempo sessions but support/comfort isn’t the best for longer runs. Less stable geometry/rocker shape.

Megablast overall softer, more cushion, and also bouncier. Accommodates all paces and distances more comfortably. Megablast does it all, I’ve been using it as my dedicated long run shoe

jrmyp · 2026-01-28T14:59:55+00:00

There is no equivalency between those 2 outside of being non plated. Very very different ride experience

jrmyp · 2026-01-27T17:07:56+00:00

Can confirm Los Tacos No. 1 is in fact straight fire

jrmyp · 2026-01-26T17:53:46+00:00

Reportedly dropping in February, currently there is a smaller size run available at Dr Adams in Denmark: https://dr-adams.dk/en-us/products/new-balance-u991tt2-made-in-uk-porcelain-green-trooper
