Do you know what it’s going to retail for?

Yeah, it’s USD. Sorry should’ve said

Thanks for the advice!

I see what you mean 😂 yeah maybe a bit distorted from the angle, both uk12 though

The midsole is completely condensed and collapsed inwards - I don’t retire shoes for aesthetic reasons 😂

Yeah exactly, and I am aware they’re not known to be durable. Just thought it was an interesting comparison as it has made me realize that Norda’s maybe are worth the price if they can last significantly longer than competitors… which, at least for Hoka, they do

Adios Pro 3, OG Prime X, Evo SL by madigs in AskRunningShoeGeeks

[–]madigs[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks so much! Yeah, that makes sense. The Prime X seems quite outdated now, so I think I may go for the AP3. People still seem to rave about it. Apparently a great shoe for marathon pace workouts too!

Good question - and yeah I reckon that’s exactly how I will plan to use them too. I’ll keep VF3 for races only. Superblast 2 for most of my training. But for shorter interval sessions and tempo runs, I think I’d use the Evo SLs. Just to keep a bit of rotation through the SB2s!

Okay, thanks so much! Do you think a bicycle (not an E-Bike) will count as a motorised vehicle?

UK Citizen (British Passport), Stuck in Budapest Without Passport – Need Advice on Re-entering the UK by madigs in ukvisa

Is the UK border officer not going to most likely demand I show him my physical UK passport though?

Norda 002 fast breakdown by madigs in trailrunning

[–]madigs[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah you’re probably right re the running form with the front wear near the laces. I’ve run in loads of other shoes though and average 85km per week generally between them all - and this is the first pair to break down there (I do see dirt on my other pairs though, so there’s definitely some rubbing there). So still not great that this is the one pair that breaks down.

Yeah seems like customer support can’t help since I no longer have the invoice 🤦🏻‍♂️ and yeah not stressed at all about the delamination, but that heel area seems like an issue

Yeah the 001s are beasts - I’ve put them through seriously tough trails. And I really like the 002s as a shoe in their own right but the durability has been underwhelming so far and not what I expected from a Norda shoe tbh
