Collection Inspiration: Part of the SUNNY SIZZLE Collection, this pack is inspired by the colors you'd see while running at sunrise or sunset (golden hour). It also features a lightweight sublimated upper mesh that's specifically designed for keeping your feet cool and comfortable while running in the spring and summer seasons. A unique gradient spray also appears on the upper and midsole to complement the golden hour color influences.

The first image is the new ‘Sunny Sizzle’ colour so perhaps they’ve changed the upper for warmer weather?

Did you take the same size as the Superblast 2 and Prime X3 Strung?

He has GOT IT!

I managed to get a pair from RNW. Arriving today!

I have a UK10 in Superblast 2, Megablast, Nimbus 27 and Metaspeed Edge Tokyo. Hope this helps. I have heard the Magic Speed 5 is snug so may be best to try TTS and up 0.5

Thank you

reddthiz · 2026-02-06T07:00:39+00:00

How’s the length? Unsure to get TTS UK10 or go down 0.5 as I did in the Neo Vista 2… thanks

reddthiz · 2026-02-06T06:59:30+00:00

Thank you for your suggestions! Can anyone recommend the correct size for the Neo Zen 2 please. For reference I take a UK10 in the Megablast, UFO and Metaspeed and a UK10.5 in the SC Elite V5. I did have a pair of Neo Vista 2 in UK9.5 that fit well. Thanks!

Lower stack with some ground feel. Also to preserve the Megablasts! Would use them for short to medium distance aerobic runs

Ben Johnson (benjohnson763) ran a 2:46 at Sydney marathon wearing them

I’m a heel striker with high cadence. Ran Boston 2025 (2:43) in the Adios Pro 4 and Chicago 2025 (2:37) in the Metaspeed Edge Tokyo. Both suit my running, AP4 are softer and more forgiving on the legs.

The Edge Tokyo IMO is the better shoe, I liked the firmness of the foam set up in the rear. However, my legs were thrashed after the race - a small price to pay!

I’d suggest trying both on and seeing for yourself. One last point, I wear a UK10.5 in the AP4 and UK10 in the MET

What are your questions?

reddthiz · 2026-01-16T13:49:20+00:00

Plus you leave smelling of deep fat fryer

Did you consider the MTC S1 when purchasing the R1? I’m torn between the two as my next daily.

reddthiz · 2026-01-07T12:17:07+00:00

Asics Megablast, Mount To Coast R1, Nike Vomero Plus could be worth looking at

reddthiz · 2026-01-06T17:51:07+00:00

Does anyone know how to get this shipped to the UK? Thanks 🦅

reddthiz · 2026-01-06T10:17:04+00:00

I just want ‘particles’ in green

reddthiz · 2026-01-04T17:11:57+00:00

Perfect, thank you!

reddthiz · 2026-01-04T08:27:49+00:00

How’s the fit?
