BALENCIAGA – RACE RUNNERS REVIEW

THE LATEST TREND IN THE WORLD OF EXPENSIVE FOOTWEAR. THE BALENCIAGA RUNNERS ARE GROWING IN POPULARITY, FINDING THE FEET OF MANY CELEBRITIES. THEY AREN’T CHEAP THATS THE FIRST THING I SHOULD SAY! COMING IN AT A RECOMMENDED RETAIL PRICE OF £425 IT COULD LEAVE YOUR BANK BALANCE LOOKING RATHER UNHEALTHY. I MUST SAY THOUGH, THEY ARE QUALITY! FROM THE SECOND YOU GET YOUR HANDS ON THEM, YOU CAN TELL THEY ARE HIGH END! THE FRONT OF THE SHOE IS A MESH LIKE MATERIAL WHICH SHOULD BE EASILY CLEANABLE IN THE EVENT OF ANY ACCIDENTS. THE MAIN UPPER IS CONSTRUCTED OF NEOPRENE MATERIAL, VERY SIMILAR TO A THICK PAIR OF SPORTS UNDER ARMOUR. THIS IS WHAT CREATES THE GLOVE LIKE FIT. THEY ARE EXTREMELY COMFY! THE NEOPRENE IS THEN COVERED EITHER SIDE WITH LEATHER LIKE SHIELDS THAT HAVE WHAT CAN ONLY BE DESCRIBED AS LITTLE WINGS COVERING THE LACE AREA. THE REAR IS WRAPPED IN BLACK SUEDE. ITS A NICE CLASSY TOUCH BUT DOES ATTRACT DIRT NO MATTER HOW MUCH YOU TRY TO KEEP THEM CLEAN! THE SOLE IS MADE FROM A TRADITIONAL TRAINER LIKE WHITE RUBBER /SPONGE. THE BONUS TO THIS IS THAT THEY CAN BE WIPED CLEAN WITH A BABY WIPE OR WET CLOTH TO MAINTAIN THE CRISP WHITE FINISH.  

HAVING HAD THESE NOW FOR A FEW WEEKS I MUST SAY I AM A BIG FAN! BUT YOU ARE LIMITED AS TO WHERE THESE CAN BE WORN. THESE SHOES ARE NOT REALLY SUITED TO A NIGHT ON THE TOWN. THEY ARE TO CASUAL!  THEY ARE HOWEVER GREAT AS A DAY TO DAY SHOE. THEY PRETTY MUCH GO WELL WITH ANY CLOTHING DUE TO THE SIMPLE COLOUR SCHEME AND SLEEK LOOK. THE TRAINER AND JEANS COMBO IS COMING BACK WITH BANG. WITH THEM BEING SO COMFORTABLE THEY CAN ONLY BE GOOD FOR YOUR FEET! BEING A KEEN FITNESS GUY, STYLE MATCHED WITH COMFORT IS IMPORTANT TO ME.

THESE SHOES CAN BE PURCHASED DIRECTLY FROM BALENCIAGE FOR £425.
