Heaven on My Feet!!!
I normally don't leave reviews. But I feel that I'm obligated to leave one for these awesome shoes!My previous shoe was the Omni 20, and I really loved those. So I was hoping to get something similar. I went ahead and skipped the Omni 21 figuring that the Omni 22 would have better tech.When I first tried these 22's on, I was a little hesitant because they didn't quite feel as cozy a my 20's. But I walked around in them a little bit and IMMEDIATELY noticed the improved ankle support. As a life long runner, I've struggle with poor ankle stability in recent years past. So the fact that the 22's felt better for ankle support was a huge plus. Another benefit was that these 22's felt lighter than the 20's.Then came the real test. How would they feel on a real run. I decided against giving them a breaking in period, and I just wanted to see if they'd make much of a difference compared to my aging 20's. Boy was I in for a huge surprise. It only took a few steps to realize that the 22's were a major improvement over the 20's. Ankle stability was solid, my legs felt great, and my stride was the best it had been all summer.This first easy run was the fastest of my entire summer, and it was by far the fastest. I ran it in Zone 2, but I still negative split the 2nd half of the run feeling like God, haha! Most importantly, 95% of the lower extremity leg pain I had been experiencing was totally wiped out. I barely felt any discomfort at all. I'm definitely gonna buy another pair or two of these (if not more)!
