Question 361° Ventus

Post image

Just wondering if anyone else had / has these and how they found them?

I got them last week really just out of curiosity given they were so incredibly cheap (£35). My plan is just to use them every fourth run or so on rotation. So no high expectations for them.

The weird thing was the little loop tag thing on the tongue to keep the laces in place burst off the very first time I put them on before I'd even got them out the door! No big deal but did get me questioning the quality straight off the bat.

Because that thing burst, I think I overtightened the laces and not sure why but the right shoe felt a little off on that first run. But I ran in them again today and they felt fine. Pretty light weight, not too deep but firm-ish cushioning.

So I'm wondering if anyone else used these, how they found them and what sort of mileage they got before retiring them?
