exciting new product codoon smart fashion running shoes 10k
PrefaceIn early 2017, Codoon released its intelligent sports strategy, combining sports equipment, training courses, and AI technology to develop and launch a series of products such as Codoon smart running shoes. These products use AI technology to scientifically guide users in real-time, reducing injuries and ensuring safer and more efficient exercise. The Codoon smart running shoe series, based on sports big data analysis, has developed a set of sports ability testing systems specifically for running users, which can assess the user's physical condition and provide scores. During the user's running exercise, it monitors relevant data in real-time and offers safe and scientific voice guidance.
Codoon Smart Fashion Running Shoes 10K
The Codoon Smart Fashion Running Shoes 10K will be crowdfunded on Xiaomi Youpin on December 18th. I was fortunate to get a test version in advance and will share my experience with the new Codoon Smart Fashion Running Shoes 10K.
Running Shoes Section
We all know that Codoon has already launched a series of running shoes including 10k, 21k, and 42k, which have gained influence in the running community. Many runners choose Codoon running shoes to start their marathon journey. With the advancement of technology and the accumulation of experience, a new generation of running shoes is emerging, and thus we have the protagonist of this article—the Codoon Smart Fashion Running Shoes 10K.
The shoes in this article are in Codoon green color. The Codoon smart chip remains the same, but the pattern has changed from the original Codoon logo to the current 'Infinity' logo.
At first glance, the shoes are stunning, especially the black dots on the outsole cushioning layer, which add a finishing touch and enhance the aesthetic appeal of the shoes.
The edge of the forefoot is marked with '10 KILOMETRES', indicating the identity of the shoes as 10km running shoes.
The edge of the toe cap is designed with a green waterproof strip, which also supports the upper, making the shoes more three-dimensional. The anti-collision toe cap extends from the sole to the toe, providing sufficient protection.
The black 'Infinity' logo strip on the shoe waist also supports the upper, ensuring the aesthetic appeal of the shoes.
The heel uses slightly harder plastic material (compared to the plastic strip on the toe cap) to enhance heel support. The 'CODOON' and 'Infinity' logos can be seen on the heel.
The plastic support material on the heel extends to the 'Infinity' logo on the shoe waist, jointly improving the support performance of the shoes, thereby enhancing stability and reducing the risk of ankle sprains while running.
From this GIF image, it can be seen that the plastic strips on the shoes are very soft, even the seemingly hard support strip on the heel can be easily pressed with a hand.
The outsole of the shoes adopts a double-layer cushioning technology, with a softer cushioning material designed above the white cushioning layer, marked as 'RIPPLE CUSHION'.
The sole does not use a whole piece of wear-resistant rubber but designs wear-resistant rubber layers at the main stress points, while other parts are directly hollowed out white cushioning layers. The top 'RIPPLE CUSHION' layer is also hollowed out at the center of the heel.A hollow groove runs across the forefoot, known as the flex groove, making it easier to transmit force when the forefoot exerts power during running. Additionally, the large hollow area reduces the weight of the shoes, and the hollow cushioning layer at the heel enhances shock absorption performance.
From this GIF image, it can be seen the hardness of various parts of the shoe outsole. 'RIPPLE CUSHION' is the softest, followed by the white cushioning layer, and the wear-resistant rubber layer is the hardest.
The shoes use a one-piece knitted mesh material, providing excellent breathability.
The competition-type shoe last design, with a unique narrow shape, effectively reduces air resistance. Although designed as a narrow last, it appears relatively wide, with ample space in the forefoot, providing a comfortable fit.
The tongue is made of soft faux leather material, providing a comfortable wearing experience for the instep.
The tongue and the shoe body are designed as an integrated connection, greatly improving the fit and wrapping, making running safer and more stable. Additionally, it prevents the tongue from moving left and right during exercise.
The smart chip is designed in the left shoe. Lifting the insole reveals the installation position, which is very convenient to install.
Size 43, the right shoe weighs 292g, making it a typical lightweight racing running shoe under 300g.
Actual Test Section
I usually run 10km, so during the test, I tried to run at my fastest speed with the Codoon Smart Fashion Running Shoes 10K. During the run, I first felt its lightness; secondly, the spacious forefoot space, where my toes did not feel cramped; thirdly, the cushioning performance, although not a strong 'stepping on poop' feeling, I could feel slight cushioning; additionally, the stability and support of the shoes allowed me to run 10km without pain or injury.
During the run, my feet did not feel hot or cold. Considering the outdoor temperature was around minus 8 degrees Celsius, the shoes achieved a balance between warmth and breathability.
From the perspective of running alone, the Codoon Smart Fashion Running Shoes 10K perfectly completed its task.
After running 10km, the shoes absorbed a lot of dust. In a dry environment, the shoes are somewhat prone to getting dirty.
Regarding the protection of the wear-resistant rubber outsole, it is estimated that there will be more wear on cement or asphalt roads, so it is still recommended to run on plastic tracks.
Regarding the smart chip, since it is a new model of running shoes, the Codoon APP has not yet added this shoe to the smart equipment, so the current Codoon APP cannot recognize this shoe. It is expected to be connected to this running shoe after the official update.
Summary
Each generation of product upgrades is the result of evolution, especially for sports consumables like running shoes. New materials, new technologies, and the accumulation of experience from the previous generation will add a lot of color to the new products. The Codoon Smart Fashion Running Shoes 10K has become 'softer' in terms of materials, greatly improving comfort and cushioning performance.
In addition, the redesign of the appearance enhances the aesthetic appeal of the shoes, making them more eye-catching and giving consumers more options for matching, not just for running.
The Codoon Smart Fashion Running Shoes 10K is an exciting product, and the 21k and 42k models are even more anticipated.
