the jasari vs the miler

If its the OS pink and green jasari, the miler is much better (this jasari is too flat in the plate) If its the Black Jasari plus (?) the jasari is better (more curvature to the plate, a little lighter than the miler)

bump

i'd take the classic jasari any day over any other spike on the market. It is so light, fits so well, and gets you up on your toes a perfect amount. From what I hear the milers are a little bit wide and your feet will move around a lot on the turns...haven't tried them out myself yet though. if you have the option of using the classic red and yellow jasari definitely go with that.

thanks. how agressive are the jasaris? what distances are they geared towards?

spikes are overrated. This thread is a sign that you should be concentrating on your training more. Unless you are an elite athlete, the diff between milers and jasaris will make no diff whatsoever

Wrong. Psychological differences can play a huge role in performance.

The miler is better. The heel cup is more comfortable, the tongue of the shoe is slightly more thick so the laces don't cut into the instep of your foot and the shoes weigh about the same, but you can replace the pins in the Miler.

Only joggers would get "pysched out" over a pair of spikes.

no true, i always found it important to feel fast, and having a pair of spikes that i thought were the best helped in that. I was no jogger.

But how do you know????

What kind of spikes come in the jasaris, are the 5mm steel pyramid?

Also, how do the jasaris fit compared to other spikes?

.... Are you kidding me

These guys just want to get a good spike and get a feel for which one might suit them best. Quit jumping on them for it, geez. Ever hear of shopping for the right shoe? They want to feel comfy and quick when they're racing just like anyone else.

I wore Jasaris when I walked on water. They can let you do that, they're that good.

J.C.

I'm comfy in $10 flipflops but you're telling me that I have to get $200 Italian loafers to be comfy. Right. 4:25+ milers will get the same thing from $120 spikes that they'd get from $40 spikes.

ill put in a vote for the milers. I own both. Absolutely love running in the milers, they feel great. Jasaris I only wore once and then threw them in the cupboard becasue they are the worst shoe ive ever worn.
