Flyknit Free came out like 2 weeks ago.
I have ran maybe 5-6 miles in mine though and I wear them with socks. It is tight by the ribbing but just give it a good pull and once you're in motion, you won't notice it much. One thing that this shoe is though is light, it is probably the closest feeling to wearing almost nothing when it comes to running shoes, granted I've never ran in racing specific shoes. Shoe is very ventilated too as you would expect, The shoes is liek a sock and the laces are great for tighten it up further for a more lockdown feel.
The sole on these feels lower too despite the 5.0 sole, felt closer to the ground than my Trainer 3.0, I haven't really check but I think it is due to a thinner insole. I think this is as barefoot as I've ran in so far and I've ran in Free Run 2 and 3.
So now that the flyknit frees have been out for a while, is there anyone who's been using them for the past month that can offer a good review of them? Are they completely unwearable with socks? Better than any other iteration of the frees that have been released recently?
