Reebok continues its strong return to performance running with the all-new Floatride. The highlight here is an exceptionally bouncy and lightweight midsole. In recent years, every brand has been whipping up its own version of a high-energy-return foam, and Reebok is calling its material Float Foam.
In the lab, the shoe delivered incredible energy return scores, on par with some of the most cushioned adidas Boost shoes we’ve measured. On the road, that translates into a well-cushioned, responsive ride that makes you want to run fast.
The upper could use a little refinement, say some of our testers; the stretchy knit used in the front half of the shoe didn’t deliver quite enough support for a few of our runners. The moulded fabric in the back half, however, does a good job of keeping your heel centred over the midsole.
