The blue _is_ the revlite. You'll feel the rebound at sub 7:00 min mile paces. There's a pretty decent little rocker to the toe-off due to it being v stiff behind the flex point showed in the video. Not a slow day shoe, but fun at pace.

Getting my 890s today and going to see how they compare with the Saucony K10!
One will have to go back.

Hi Sam,

I can't find your RW coupon code for 10% on the site. Do you no longer offer that discount?

Thanks,
John

Hi John,
Thank you for reading and purchasing through our Running Warehouse link. Unfortunately due to the code being shared on coupon sites RW has disabled it so we had to take it down. We hope to bring it back in a new way soon. Our apologies.
Sam, Editor
