{{DISPLAYTITLE:Reebok Floatride Run Review}}
The exciting thing about Reebok Floatride Run is that it uses the same type of foam as the amazing (if flawed) [[Nike Vaporfly 4%]]. If the Floatride has a fraction of the benefits of the Vaporfly, it could be an awesome shoe. The vapor fly is incredibly light yet massively cushioned and incredibly bouncy. On the other hand, the Floatride is a reasonably good, but relatively ordinary running shoe. It's unclear how much of the new "Pebax" foam is used in the Floatride, but I believe it's all of the white colored foam in the pictures below. The blue foam above, and through the zigzag pattern seems to be a harder, EVA foam. Under foot, the Floatride is reasonably well cushioned, and has a little bit of spring, but nothing that sets it apart from the crowd. The upper is a bit of a mixed bag, and the designers clearly didn't follow the Bauhaus "form follows function" approach. I have some reservations over the way the lacing concentrates forces on a relatively small part of the top of the foot that caused me some troubling pain on prolonged downhill running. If the Floatride had a traditional upper, I would be torn between a quote highly recommended" and a simple "recommended", but the problems with the upper make me downgraded to a "worth considering" grade. {{H:WhatToLookForInShoes}}
