I am thinking about trying out the Asics Sky Speed as a shoe for longer runs. I'm pretty lightweight and like to do few runs a week in something more like the Hyperspeed or other racing flats, but especially coming back off an injury I want a little more shoe and heel for longer runs, but nothing too heavy or with excessive support.
First of all, any experience with the Sky Speeds?
Second of all, I can get the original Sky Speed for about half the price of the Sky Speed 2. Are there any differences I should be aware of, especially sizing?
Runningwarehouse shoefitr as the Sky Speed original as slightly tighter in the forefoot than the SS 2. I usually run in 11 but occasionally go up a half size, although not often. Would I need to consider a half size larger for the original?
Thanks in advance.
