So I've been a little quiet recently as I just finished my 4th semester of DPT school and some finals from hell. This review has been long overdue. Let's get this underway.
Adidas has been on my radar recently with their fantastic updates with Boost. Additionally, I have always been fascinated with Japanese racing flats particularly from Asics, Adidas and Nike. I've known about the Takumi Sen for a bit, but finally after a difficult midterm I decided to pull the plug on a pair of the 2nd version. I am very glad I did. Although this is not the lightest racing flat I have used, it has become my favorite (yes, even beating the amazing Wave Universe 4). This is such a masterfully built shoe that thoroughly showcases the Japanese attention to detail and craftsmanship. It is clear that every aspect has been thoroughly looked into and addressed in terms of performance, fit, feel and more. I love this shoe. Here's why.
