"Helping The World DISCOVER THE WAY of LOVE!"

I was Nike Roshe Run Trainers Sale recently contacted by Nike about the new Free line, and they sent along a pairs of the 2015 Free 3.0 and 4.0 for me to test out. I¡¯ve now been running in the 3.0 for several weeks, and it¡¯s time for a review. (Disclosure: The shoes reviewed here are media samples provided free of charge by the manufacturer.)Per Running Warehouse, the Free 3.0 Flyknit weighs in at 7.1 oz in men¡¯s size 9. Sole stack heights are 21 mm heel, 17 mm forefoot for a drop of 4mm.The upper of the Free 3.0 is about as minimal as you can get. It¡¯s a single piece, knit upper with Flywire extending from the sole to the lace attachments. There are only three lace loops on each side, and the laces are very thin. That¡¯s about it!

In most other ways the Wildhorse 3 upper retains the minimally structured feel of v2, and overall I¡¯m quite impressed with it. One issue I did have with the v2 was a bit of looseness in the heel, which caused a bit of rubbing and skin abrasion on Nike Air Max 2015 Men's sale uk the first few wears. WH 3 adds a slightly firmer, more substantial heel counter which helps to hold the foot in place for a better lockdown in the heel. I¡¯ve had no issues with abrasion or blistering in v3.

The Nike Wildhorse 2 is a 4mm drop trail shoe (22mm heel, 18mm forefoot) that weighs in at 9.3 oz in men¡¯s size 9 (specs via Running Warehouse). I presume that the 10-14 printed on the medial sole near the heel refers to midsole heights and does not include the insole or outsole. I purchased a size 10.5, which is a half size up from my normal (but seems to be becoming my new normal!).

I never ran in the 2014 3.0 Flyknit, though I heard good things about it from a lot of runners. Like it¡¯s predecessor, the new 3.0 is constructed like a sock attached to a sole, with slight tweaks to the upper design. Looks like a slight change in construction of the ankle collar, and a different mesh under the laces and over the forefoot. I remain intrigued by this shoe, but the $140 price tag is just a bit too high for my taste.

One of my favorite running shoes from last year was the Nike Free 4.0 Flyknit. In fact, the 4.0 Flyknit might be my favorite Free of all-time ¨C my only real complaint was that the lacing put a bit of pressure on the top of my foot with extended wear.

As with the upper, the sole of the Wildhorse 3 is beefed up via the addition of about 6mm of midsole cushion Nike Air Max 90 uk sale in the heel and 2mm in the forefoot. The shoe retains a zoom air unit in the heel, and there is a rock plate in the forefoot. Overall, the ride is cushier than that of v2, though I can¡¯t sense the bouncy presence of the zoom air unit as much in the new version. The added midsole height seems to have muted the feel a bit. Whereas I felt like the earlier versions of the Wildhorse were something like a Nike Free Trail (minus the flex), the Wildhorse 3 i s probably more comparable to something like a Zoom Elite Trail.
