Watching this video and watching other shoe reviewers opinion on sky vs. the edge lets me know who is really knowledgeable on shoes. Stick with people that know what they are talking about. Great video Matt.

Not taking it off road.. Not running sock less to keep it fresh.. You love this one ❤❤❤

Great review! Useful information on how the shoe rolls when hitting the ground.

Yes, Peba does have a distinct scent. It smells like . . . victory.

Just tried out (treadmill and in-store sprints) the Sky and Edge at the Asics store in New York's Meatpacking, and even though I'm a mid/forefoot runner, I preferred the Edge. My cadence and my stride length tend go up with my pace and the Edge Paris just works better with my running form/mechanics. Fwiw, I've watched another review where they compared the plate placement to the different plate placements in the Alphafly (Sky) and the Vaporfly (Edge), and since I get on very well with my Vapes, I'm actually not surprised that the Edge is where I've landed. Anyway, just ordered them from Marathon Sports w/5% off. Can't wait to take them for a spin.

So I guess the Sky Paris for me as a heavy forefoot striker.

It’s true, certified shoe verifiers smell shoes as part of their checklist.

Is it safe to say the Edge is best for heal strikers and the Sky for forefoot strikers?

Great review Matt! Out of interest which is closer to the plate placement in the Nike Vaporfly 3 - the Sky Paris or Edge Paris?

[flatfootedrunner]

Great review, Matt. The plate set up of the Edge Paris resembles the OG Sky - would you say they’re comparable? The OG Sky Tokyo is still my favourite version to-date.

Candice be good for someone that runs about an 8:30 to 9 minute pace per mile? Or is it better to just go for a regular trainer?

[peterkisidaj]

Hi Matt, thanks a lot for sharing your thoughts. I haven't tried Metaspeed lineup, maybe becasue was not easy to choose between Sky or Edge. I'm fore to midfoot striker so do you think that Sky would be better for my gait cycle? Like this brand new Paris collectiion so maybe right time to pick up one pair :) All the Best, Peter from Slovakia

Hello! Just wanted to say thank you for the reviews you do. Really helped me a lot. I’m a new runner. Just started 3 months ago, and my longest run is 10km and I really enjoy it a lot. The lure of having to try and wear a super shoe is really tempting. (The Metaspeed Edge Paris) I have flat feet and with mild pronation. My current shoes are the GT 2000 12 and the Superblast. Just wanted to ask if its necessary to get the Edge Paris in this point of my running training? My goal is to be able to beat my 10km time.

Thanks so much.

How do you compare the plate between sky and edge versus saucony endorphin pro 4 and elite?

[gilangwahyupratama]

Should i buy this? I already bought vapor 3 and alpa3
I need for 5-10k session race

Hi Matt, would this be a good fit for someone who has stability needs and enjoys running in the GT-2000 12? Cheers!

[SirThomas]

Any roads need to be flatten just ask Matt 😊

[chankoksoon]

Any idea how it fair for mid and fore foot striking?

Just wondering if this is a "marathon" shoe - thought many like the edge, I don't here many talk about this being their marathon shoe say vs.
The sky - this seems better for shorter distances?

[sebastianelanhernandez]

I tend to heel strike and my cadence isn’t high. I’ve been wearing the Vaporfly 2 for all my workouts and I don’t have any problems with it but I’m curious about trying these over the Vaporfly 3. Do you have any recommendations?
