Further,
Should we all go back to barefoot days? Where do we draw the line? CF plates?
Why is the Reebok Floatrides Run Fast Pro perfectly fine yet it does't have a CF plate? They have Pebax.
Is it the foam? Should we ban TPU, TPE? just go to EVA only? This is all so silly.
Let's go wth a common middle ground and Roman sandals it is. No spikes.
Every time this thread resurrects itself so does this lame argument.
No we shouldn't go back to barefoot days. Yes you draw the line at the CF plate. It's not rocket science - keep running events to be contested in running shoes and leave any hybrid footwear like the Vaporflys / roller blades out of the picture.
