  • The Salomon S/Lab Spectur is a super-shoe designed to be more stable and suitable for amateur runners finishing marathons in around four hours. It certainly is pretty stable, but does it deliver the super-shoe magic you expect from a plated shoe, especially one with a big price tag? Tom and Nick give their verdict here.

    I don't get, why so many testers disagree with the premise of these shoes. If you assume, that the subjective effort is the same, and the distance is anyway, then the critical factor is the time spent on feet. So the question isn't, if you would choose these for a marathon, but rather for a 4+ hour run at your marathon pace, however fast that is.

    I must admit, being a 4hr30 marathon runner this shoe does intrigue me. I appreciate that everyone wants an elite supershoe. But having bought a fair few, realistically as form drops they actually become difficult to run in for me at least over that time frame.
    On another note I’ll be running in the TYR Valkyrie Elite Carbon in this weekends Manchester Marathon…….they appear to be very comfortable, yet have the supershoe performance for a slower, heavier runner.
    As well as performance vs stability for slower runners, another thing some of us slower runners are conscious of is the slight embarrassment of running in certain shoes i.e AF3…….a little too attention grabbing 😂

      How did the Valkyrie work for you? I’m considering that one for the marathon.

      @@mayabettencourt7177 they worked out great, super comfortable, lightweight, fantastic bounce/return. I’ll be wearing them again for other half/full races I have this year.
      Usually an 8 UK, I did have to go up half a size to 8.5 UK.

    The stability etc sounds like the Puma Fast R V1 ❓

    How is the fit of the TYR? Same size as Saucony Endorphin line?

    • @mrgroundhog9790
      @mrgroundhog9790 3 місяці тому +1

      The TYR runs small, I’ve had to size up half a size (UK8.5). I’ve only ran in the Saucony Endorphin Speed 2 which I found TTS (UK8).

    Nice review. This shoe should be equivalent to the 160-180$ range.

      Why? The basic Triumph 22 is 170 and it’s an everyday trainer..

    • @marcuslockhart4610

      Super trainers have some mixture of plate and super foam mixed with normal foam (eva). Or could be all super foam with no plate. Spectur has plate, one PEBA layer and an EVA layer. Triump 22 has new all PEBA midsole, now priced like other super trainers (speed, boston 12, etc)
