This is New Balance’s latest edition to the natural/minimalistic running game. The shoe is surely to be a hit. It’s light, flexible, and comfortable. Weighing in at 7.5 oz in a size 9.5 (Mens), the shoe is lighter than most of its competition. With only a 4mm drop from heal to forefoot, a mid-foot to forefoot strike is promoted. The shoe must be designed to be worn sock-less, as the inside is very soft and free from any “hang-ups” that may cause irritation. There is no insole in this shoe. The heal counter may be a bit stiff, and may cause slight irritation depending on the runner. The last is wider than that of the New Balance M100 and M101, which gives you more room in the toe-box which promotes proper foot strike. The mesh exterior on the upper is a great choice for the shoe in combination with Vibram rubber forming the “circular-atomic” lug pattern on the sole of the shoe. The sole is a bit thick, but may compensate for the lack of Rock-Stop that was in place for the M100 and M101. Overall a great-looking and great-fitting shoe by New Balance as they continue their journey down the minimalistic road.

Healus Technology undertakes research and development of the specification for heelless running shoes. We have already established patents for a number of unique inventions. The ultimately intended lightweight shoe (220-295 grams) will greatly improve shock absorption, preventing injuries from repeated high impact forces. An additional benefit is expected to be a more efficient motion process, which may improve individual’s performances

Available in Men’s fit at www.pro4sport.co.uk or in Women’s fit at www.pro4sport.co.uk Rooted in the success of its predecessors in the GEL-Kinsei series, this new model introduces an innovative adaptive technology in the form of the new Guidance Line system. With a long vertical groove that flows the length of the shoe, the Guidance Line encourages the foot to repeat an optimal path through the gait cycle, thereby creating a more efficient gait and ultimately reducing fatigue. Another notable upgrade to the GEL-Kinsei 3 is a significant reduction of the shoes weight to a remarkable 12.6 ounces (357g), compared to the 14 ounces (396) of the GEL-Kinsei 2. Innovations that helped reduce the weight and provide benefit and comfort include: • a re-worked heel environment that is more stable, reduces irritation and offers a customized fit; • a newly designed Propulsion TrussticTM that enhances proper foot function • additional GEL® Cushioning System in the forefoot for improved comfort and function.
