Adidas Alphabounce Beyond M Running Shoes for Men - Lightweight, Breathable & Cushioned for Jogging, Gym & Daily Wear

I have had the Alphabounce Beyond for just over a month or so now and felt that myself enough time to write on honest review. I will start off with the pros and cons for folks who want a summary and then write a detailed review/observation log below.Pros:- Serious bang for the buck (among the best compared to shoes in the same category/price point)- Materials feel premium for such a price point, something Adidas has been generous with for many recent models- Versatile use whether it be for daily tasks/work or exercising- Strong variety in color options as well as an appealing look that seems to feel appropriate for many occasions- Comfortably wide, will accommodate many foot shapes, fits true to size-Easy to clean with a cloth towel and water (light soap if needed)Neutral:-Neither on the light or heavy side when compared to competitors-Tad wider outsole than previous gen shoe that some may find too wide in appearanceCons:-Some may find the laces a tad long if they are used to only tieing single knot laces Considering the price point of this shoe you are getting an excellent deal due to the shoe's ability to be worn in several manners. Upon my purchase arriving I felt no break-in time was needed for the shoe. Runners and those who workout regularly will feel satisfaction in the bounce technology as the sole material seems to offer excellent energy return and stability without feeling overly hard or uncomfortable. This same technology is also great for those who merely want to go on walks and accomplish daily tasks such as grocery shopping or going to a job/career where standing and moving about is typical. The various meshes and layers that make up the shoe provide an excellent sense of lockdown and stability while also providing interesting textures that give the shoe a distinct look and feel. In my book, the most notable material has to be the lining of the inside and well as on the heel tab due to the fact it provides a silky sensation upon entry or exit. The liner also feels great while the shoes are on feet and do not overheat or feel slippery. I also own the previous generation Alphabounce and felt great satisfaction in that purchase as well. This newer model happens to improve a few things here and there, most notably a slightly broader base that feels more supportive, a stronger and more premium looking heel cage, subjectively a better-looking shoe as a whole. As a whole anyone purchasing these shoes should feel they have made a great purchase, my older pair has lasted well over a year with just some wear in the bottom sole; a quick tip, occasional cleaning with an old brush and some water restore the look of these things! Hope you found my review to be helpful, it was a pleasure writing about a product that has excited me so much over this period of time! I will post a couple pictures for reference (note I wear a size 11 and am 6'2" perhaps that will give you some sense of scale while on feet)
