![]() ![]() The Floatride Energy foam (as found on the Energy X) has shown itself to be a very solid option, and it’s allowed these shoes to come in at a more reasonable price point. The Floatride Run (PEBA foam) shoes were more race-focused, lightweight, and expensive. If you’ve followed along with the naming scheme, hopefully you’ve picked up that the Reebok Floatride Energy X is a new member in the latter lineup (for simplicity’s sake, I’m calling it the Energy X from now on). Reebok also has its Floatride Energy shoes, like the Forever Floatride Energy and the Floatride Energy. ![]() These options used the Floatride foam that was PEBA-based (back before everyone clamored to make super foam shoes). Here’s a quick rundown on their two main product lines: First is the Floatride Run lineup, with shoes like the Run, Run Fast, and Run Fast Pro. It’s great for when you still want to pick up the pace and not use up all of your miles in your precious Alphafly or Vaporfly.īEN: Reebok has stayed out of the hype running shoe spotlight over the last few years, but it’s released some solid offerings with confusing names. Maybe it’s not the best race day shoe on the market, but I’ve found that the shoe can be useful for workout and tempo days. ![]() Most super shoes and race day shoes are far north of $200, so it’s nice to see that Reebok is pricing its shoes at a more affordable point. The Floatride Energy X is a great shoe, especially for $170. However, that doesn’t mean it’s a bad shoe or doesn’t have a purpose. I have to be very clear and honest with y’all: It doesn’t live up to the hype of some of the other traditional super shoes out on the market. This is Reebok’s premier race day super shoe. The Floatride Energy X is another one that surprised me - in a good way. The brand’s latest addition to the Floatride line is here to make race day shoes more accessible to everyone.īRANDON: Reebok’s been coming out with some pretty impressive tech lately. MEAGHAN: A carbon-plated race shoe for under $200? Yep, Reebok just launched the Floatride Energy X for a mere $170.
