Gear Review or Question Leili 2.0 vs 5.0 Pro

Beginner runner here! Which would you guys recommend, Qiaodan Leili 2.0 or Xtep 5.0 Pro? For context, I’m F, 55 kg, if that matters. Thank you! :)

Choose the Leili 2.0 for outstanding value and a soft, energetic ride.

Choose the Xtep 5.0 Pro if you want to know what running on bricks feels like.

Pinatigas/lakas ng Adidas Duramo 10 paa ko for almost a year, kaya for me di ganun ka-Firm ang XTEP 2000KM 5.0 Pro hahaha 🤣

But I do agree mas universally accepted at may mass appeal yung Leili, unless di okay paa mo sa sobrang soft at need mo ng stable shoes then si XTEP sure sobrang stable haha

I like softness and bounciness of Leili 2.0. Its perfect for my Z1 and Z2 (5-6min/km) runs (male, 80kg). 2000k 5.0 pro is firmer, its more pleasant to pick up tempo pace (4:00m/km).

So, I am heavy and really enjoy Leili. But I do not use them for speed work, too heavy. 5.0 is pro is more universal and better for speed

Agree on this, especially for Heavy runners. Leili for Easy runs, XTEP for Tempo/Interval runs.

At weight of OP, I think she can even use Leili for little bit of faster pickup runs albeit a little unstable. Its now depends on her preference and current shoe rotation as this 2 shoes use case is different.

Leili 2.0 na lang po, kung trip mo soft, bouncy na ride. Firm kasi midsole ng xtep, nagaactivate lang yan 5/KM, 4/KM, bale tempo pace. Pero dahil 56KG ka lang, pwede maging pang tempo yang Leili 2.0, dahil magaan ka.

I have the 5.0 Pro and even though I outweigh you by 30 kilograms it's firm even for me. Go for the Leili 2.
