    Dude, you have my level of crazy with a really good level of sensible. Down to earth reviews, worth listening to and making our own decisions from. Thank you.

      Kristian, I think I love you. Seriously though, encouraging comments like yours make a real difference. I’m learning that the early stages of a channel are SO hard! I want to keep the effort high. Keep improving. But very few views so far. Onwards. 🤛🏼

    I liked your style of reviewing the shoe. You incorporate humour in your talks. The background music is pretty sick.
    I've ordered this TNF Flight Vectiv from the US and I'm waiting MyUS would deliver it to me a few weeks from now.

    Top shoe for the right trails, well done with the review (I've been lucky enough to have been testing these out for the past year, I haven't done a review yet though). It's a tad snowy up here at the moment to be using them much ❄️🏃

    Great review. Nicely done. How do you compare it to Cloudventure Peak? I suspect they are both designed to be lightweight and for different surfaces. Thanks much.

    • @peakproofuk
      @peakproofuk  3 роки тому +1

      Thanks Rajkumar! Cloudventure definitely have a faster turn of speed and would suit shorter races - 20km for normal people / 40km for pros. These suit ultras for anybody - really comfy while still feeling snappy. Wish they had more all round grip. The Peak work on more types of surface.

    Is the upper permeable? Will moisture be able to dry off?

    • @peakproofuk
      @peakproofuk  3 роки тому

      It’s not sloshing around in there but I think TNF could have designed the overlays a little smarter to actively encourage the water out faster - especially around the front / rand area. It’s certainly not designed to wet running.

    @MrLupsa123 3 роки тому

    Good review... Can I ask you about sizing?.. In comparison with Hoka one one maybe... Because in Hokas you must go size up... Is there a case 2? Thanks man and keep up the good work 👍

    • @peakproofuk
      @peakproofuk  3 роки тому +1

      OK, this is tricky. Mainly because I find most recent Hoka ARE true to size. But I know a colleague also testing the Vectiv and he thinks they're large (need sizing down). It's true, they are slightly 'long' - however the slightly point shape would stop me sizing down. So I think true to size is the best advice.

    Nice review. I am an Altra man normally for trails and road but also love my Nike next % .... interested about the carbon plate in a trail shoe. Have a 50km virtual ultra next week ... hmm.
    Have not got the end of the video yet but intrigued re width. Hoping it’s wide...may have to buy and do a review too on my channel.
