I've been a big fan of the New Balance RC1400v6. However, they're getting very difficult to find and the design is a bit dated so I was hoping to hear plans for a refreshed RC1400v7 coming out. Any chance that is in the works? The RC1400's firm Revlite foam in a traditional midsole layout works great for me, but I'd also be intrigued by a plated and bouncier SC1400 if it kept the low profile of its predecessor.
Salomon looks like they're going to kill it next year. Awesome shoes in the pipe. I do hope they dial in their sizing system. In the last few years, "true to size" has felt like a half size too long in their non S-Lab models.
Hey Sam, was Topo a no show this year? I saw they were on the exhibitor list but haven't seen any coverage on them. I did find an ad for a Specter shoe they're making, looks like a fairly high stack shoe with the plastic plate or whatever they use in there.
Hello Sam and everyone at RTR. What is the name of the Salomon trail shoe that was shown in the upper right hand corner of the video? It’s looks kinda of neon yellow very much interested in that shoe and it’s release date. Also the men’s orange/grey sense ride 5 on the bottom shelf. Any info on these two shoes would be great. Thank you.
Hi Anonymous re Salomon at top right. I think that is another color of the Pulsar Trail, the blue below it. See more details for it and all the 2022 Salomon in linked written preview article below video. There will be a Sense Ride 5. Not sure when but in 2022 Hi BD Clark, re Topo we did not go by their booth but did get a briefing. Yes Specter is coming and we will be testing and it is a 35 x30 total stack shoe with a PEBA core and EVA frame but no plate. June release. Hi Unknown, re 1400. It was not shown to us and have no info but you will want to look at SC Pacer, a plated FuelCell race flat coming in 2022. Hi Unknown, re Glycerin 20 (without GTS) I weighed a US9 in Stealtfit upper at 9.44 oz / 266g and a regular fit mesh at 10.23 oz / 288g. Sam, Editor Sam, Editor
Hey Sam, I'm not sure if I'm the only one, but the new balance videos have been missing since at least yesterday (12/7). Did something go wrong? I can't find much about their '22 stuff anywhere online now.

I was really hoping we'd start to see DNA Loft v3 on a 10mm drop shoe from Brooks. So I was glad to see this! Thanks for posting!
ReplyDeleteThanks for the great coverage! Any idea on the Launch and Glycerin release dates?

ReplyDeleteStill no update to the Hyperion Tempo or Elite (3). Getting a bit stale?
Great job on the updates from Brooks, ASICS, New Balance, and Hoka, Sam! I really appreciate them.
ReplyDeleteDo you happen to know the weight of the upcoming Glycerin?
Thanks again for all that you do!

Got it. Embargo of some kind. Nevermind.
