WF - I have a pair that are 18 months and probably 500 miles old and still feel nice, took a pair from the box in Feb so they were 14 months old and they were fine and dandy

Not sure of the standard of the testers really, these fast shoes are never for everyone but CONS need a fluro strip for low light runs.....

New colourway out for the Next%, a lot less bright than previous versions, if you want to blend in a bit more ;-)

I'm in the same boat Baz. I like them. But have been told in no uncertain terms that I cannot buy another pair of them. Partly as there are no races and I only get them out the box for races.

Given I haven't fully killed my first pair of 4% and my 2nd pair still look brand new there is no need for me to purchase

yeah, my current pair still good for use with I think 120 miles in them. Might need to wait for the next offer.

Also have another competing option as I was looking at treadmills yesterday and could get one at roughly same price, just in case we are not allowed to run. Although I could fine them, availability was an issue.

A treadmill for £240 - is that 2nd hand or new ? Any articles I read, when I was having a look recently, reckoned that for serious runners you needed to spend about £400 minimum ( if buying new ). Thing is, you can never be sure with these on-line reviews, as to whether they have a vested interest in getting you to spend more.
