Nike, Puma and Adidas: Three for the run

All shoes felt comfortable with socks and without

Puma
premium

Abhik Sen New Delhi
Nike Free RN Flyknit
Price:
Rs 16,999
Light and with a comfortable toe box, I felt as if I was running barefoot when I ran without socks. Well, I kept off the gravel. Wrapping itself around my feet, the shoes felt comfortable with socks and without. So comfortable in fact that I practically slept in it.


 
Puma Speed 600 Ignite 2
Price: Rs 11,999
The Speed 600 offers a more snug fit than other Ignites I’ve used and there is ample cushioning for the midsole, even on gravel. The forefoot’s feedback seemed to “thrust” me forward, while the fit seemed to keep my feet’s severe pronation in check.
 
Adidas PureBOOST
Price: Rs 15,000
If the city street is your track, you’ll love this pair for its grip while taking sharp turns and the extra protection it provides. The tongue “wraps” around the foot, while the upper seems to mould itself to your gait.
