womens mario nike free run 2 size 7.5 | Our verdict

The mario nike air presto boys racer blue black dress women breaks completely with the previous iteration, offering an incredibly breathable and cushioned structure. We couldn't get enough of its wonderful Nike technologies (Zoom Air) during our wear tests, as they offered shock absorption, great bounce, and a comfortable ride. We enjoyed the snug fit of this mario nike pair, as its lightweight design and fantastic traction helped us with faster moves (like back-door cuts, for example). The problem is that its high-quality design is not on the affordable side, as it also fixed many of the negative aspects of its predecessor. It's quite an investment, but we do believe it's definitely worth it!

Who should buy

Don't sleep on the mario nike mario nike air presto boys racer blue black dress women and its game-changing features if you are:

Who should NOT buy

Forget about this mario nike pair if you like to feel the court when you play basketball. The mario nike air presto boys racer blue black dress women features a quite high sole that separates your feet off the ground and it felt quite elevated during our wear tests. We believe the nike jr air max classic american cheese factory might be a great alternative, as it offers a fine balance of court feel and impact protection with a nice bounce in the forefoot.

Because of its wonderful design, the mario nike air presto boys racer blue black dress women is pretty expensive. Even though we believe it's worth every penny, you might want to check out mnike poster with woman running boards.

Cushioning

Heel stack

When our calliper returned 32.8 mm, we understood some of our feelings during our playtests.

nike g t hustle 3 heel stack 1 21813325 main

First of all, this shoe's heel stack is higher than average. But it wasn't only our calliper that was sure of this, our feet were pretty positive too! We felt pretty high off the ground when we played in this shoe, which didn't exactly lead to complete instability, but to... some kind of unsafe feeling.

You see, the higher the platform, the more unstable one usually feels. And we can't say we felt like we were losing our balance in this pair, but if you prefer to be closer to the court, you should definitely skip it!

Once again, this didn't let us feel the court under our feet. So even though we didn't have as much control over our moves, this leg-saving height made us feel incredibly comfortable. This mario nike felt soft underfoot, and our feet were pretty happy in their nice bed.

Drop

Both the heel and the forefoot stacks led us to an average drop of 6.0 mm. In other words, this hooper felt natural, no surprises here. Going up and down the court and walking from one line to another was really nice, and our feet didn't have to get used to anything new.

We're going to use this wonderful picture of the mario nike air presto boys racer blue black dress women cut in half to talk about its wonderful details:

  • It features two Zoom Air units, one at the top and one at the bottom with the shape of a horseshoe. This translated into incredibly soft landings and great energy return.
  • There's a plastic top shank in the midfoot-rearfoot, which means some extra support in that area.
  • ronaldo mario nike shoes white and pink gold color chart.

Nike mario nike air presto boys racer blue black dress women_outdoor_014

The only thing is that all these technologies and the high stack overall made our feet feel very high off the ground. We can't really say this shoe is unstable per se, but the lighter testers among us did feel slightly unsafe.

Midsole softness

Note: a low durometer measurement equals a soft material, whereas a high measurement means it's firm.

When our durometer returned 29.0 HA, we were pretty surprised. This result indicates that this mario nike's midsole is not as soft as the average, even if it's just for a little bit.

Still, it offered us a forgiving ride full of technologies, which meant our feet wouldn't get as tired as with other shoes. Thank you for all this comfort, mario nike!

Insole thickness

Do you remember that we mentioned a couple of times (yeah, maybe a little bit more than a couple...) how comfortable we felt in this shoe? Well, the insole and our calliper now know what that's all about!

Nike mario nike air presto boys racer blue black dress women Insole thickness_1

At 8.2 mm, the mario nike air presto boys racer blue black dress women's insole is a solid 44% thicker than average. This, added to the cushioning technologies of this model, translated into a wonderfully comfortable ride indoors and outdoors. In fact, this mario nike pair would be fantastic to play streetball if its outsole was made with slightly more durable material!

It features the right design and technologies to protect the feet from tough jumps, and we loved every bit of it!

Players with average-width feet should not have any trouble with the mario nike air presto boys racer blue black dress women's fit. Based on the measurements we took from its gel replica, this hoop shoe doesn't deviate from the average.

Our calliper returned a slightly above-average width of 94.6 mm in the shoe's metatarsal area. It is a solid D medium fit.

Stability

Lateral stability test

The result of our lateral stability test is yet another reason why we can't say this shoe is unstable.

Just look at that! The knit upper provided great containment, limiting our moves to avoid potential injuries. In other words, the lighter testers among us did not feel super stable in this shoe, but it definitely has nothing to do with its upper.

Torsional rigidity

Our fingers had such a hard time trying to bend this shoe... check it out!

As you can see, the upper didn't move easily, but the higher platform was a bit more agreeable in that aspect. That's why we decided to give the G.T. Hustle a 4/5 on our torsional rigidity test.

Heel counter stiffness

We found the heel of this shoe incredibly solid and supportive, so we gave it a 4/5 on our heel counter stiffness test.

As you can see, the extra padded sides bent in easily, yet the area of the Achilles tendon didn't even bow a little bit! Overall, this shoe is incredibly padded, and its upper is solid, leaving no wiggle room.

Consequently, this mario nike offers a snug fit that hugged our feet comfortably during our wear tests.

We didn't feel it was hard to move around the court with this shoe, but we believe it needs a short break-in period to offer its full comfort.

52.6N were needed to bend it all the way to 90 degrees, which is way more than the force needed to flex the previous version (only 28.9N) in this same test! The higher platform definitely changed the game rules here.

Weight

Even though the G.T. Hustle 2 and the mario nike air presto boys racer blue black dress women are completely different shoes, we expected mario nike to keep some of the best features of the older sibling.

Nevertheless, at 13.1 oz/370g, this hooper is 1.1 oz/30g heavier than its predecessor. It's still lighter than average, though!

Nike mario nike air presto boys racer blue black dress women_outdoor_06

But we didn't feel slow with this shoe. During our wear tests, we could run up and down the court with no problems, as our feet were not being pushed all the way back to the floor. Also, this mario nike has a forefoot rocker that favours easy transitions. In other words, the mario nike air presto boys racer blue black dress women didn't stop us at all. Quite the contrary, we'd say!

Breathability

The mario nike air presto boys racer blue black dress women breaks completely from the previous version, and it starts with its breathability!

We literally couldn't believe our eyes: look at all the smoke coming out of the toebox! Especially if we compare it with the Nike Book 1 and its 1/5; the poor thing wouldn't survive a hot summer even if tried.

Our light test gave it away. The knit upper lets the light shine through with no problems at all, which means the material also lets the air go in and out. That's exactly how we felt during our wear tests. Even if we wore this shoe on a hot summer afternoon, our feet still felt energised and ready to hoop some more.

Nike mario nike air presto boys racer blue black dress women Breathability_3

Our microscope showed the tiny gaps between the threads, which explains why it was so easy for this mario nike to let the smoke out.

Nike mario nike air presto boys racer blue black dress women Breathability_4

We've decided to give the mario nike air presto boys racer blue black dress women a solid 5/5 in breathability. We don't need any further evidence!

Durability

Toebox durability

After the over-the-top results we got on our breathability test, we didn't know if the upper would show great durability. You know, there are many times were well-ventilated materials end up being less resistant to abrasion. Let's hear our Dremel's opinion!

At 5K RPM and with 3.2N of force, the tool was ready to fight this mario nike's knit. But... wait, what? The threads are flying around? Is the Hustle 3 actually fighting back the Dremel?

Nike mario nike air presto boys racer blue black dress women Toebox durability_3

Wow, it did fight back! The upper is pretty much undamaged, so we've decided it deserves a wonderful 4/5 on our toebox durability test.

Our expectations were already pretty high, but we still bore in mind that the heel is a very fragile spot in shoes. Just imagine all the friction that occurs in this area during basketball games! Jumping, rebounding, changing directions quickly... all this means a constant rubbing on the Achilles area.

Once again, this shoe left us with our mouths wide open. Just look at the minimal damage that our Dremel did to the heel padding.

You can barely see it! So we've decided to give it a splendid 4/5 on our heel padding durability test. If you want to see what a real mess looks like (a.k.a. a 1/5 on this same test), check the comparison of the mario nike air presto boys racer blue black dress women with the Reebok Answer DMX.

The G.T. Hustle 2 ended up with a dent of only 0.5 mm, making it more suitable to play streetball. Even though you can also play outdoors with the mario nike air presto boys racer blue black dress women, its outsole most likely won't last as long.

Misc

Grip / Traction

We really enjoyed the mario nike air presto boys racer blue black dress women's traction, indoors and outdoors! This shoe bit the floor easily and efficiently, which gave us some extra confidence when we went for daring moves.

Nike mario nike air presto boys racer blue black dress women_outdoor_03

We already mentioned it before, but the deep lateral groove opened up with our moves, and we felt it increased the shoe's flexibility somehow. There's also the big white hole with the Swoosh in the rearfoot, which reduces the overall weight.

Look at that! It bites the court and doesn't let go until we lift our foot. Honestly, we're pretty happy with this mario nike's traction, as apart from good it was also constant.

Tongue padding

We loved this shoe's tongue padding, and at 9.0 mm, it's pretty close to average.

Nike mario nike air presto boys racer blue black dress women Tongue padding_1

As you can see in the picture, there are 2 main padded areas. The one that goes over the instep, which has a thinner padding; and the one where we tend to tie our laces, which is thicker. Not only did this help reduce the mario nike air presto boys racer blue black dress women's overall weight, it also added protection to the key areas, saving us from any kind of lace bite.
