bimai pace2.0 running shoes light breath your imagination
First of all, I would like to thank Sister Dang for this review opportunity. The Bmai PACE 2.0 is positioned as a casual jogging shoe. The upper design has been upgraded with seamless heat-bonding technology combined with jacquard mesh, providing a lighter wearing experience for casual sports enthusiasts. Running shoe brands are increasingly using new technologies, whether it's the upper or the IP outsole technology. The continuous innovation in running shoe technology makes running easier for us.

Now, let's look at the detailed review by Fengzi (Codoon nickname: @RunningFengzi):
1. Unboxing
Upon receiving the shoes, I couldn't wait to open the packaging. Instead of the conventional cardboard box, it used a foam packaging box, giving a soft and gentle feel. What caught my eye was the large area of black mesh with faint red spots inside. Unlike the flashy designs of other brands, this is a more low-key running shoe. The upper uses seamless heat-bonding technology, with a lightweight elastic film, stronger extensibility, and fit, reducing the stuffiness during long runs. Additionally, the seamless technology film has good elasticity and flexibility, which can instantly adjust the runner's stride stability. Thus, the elasticity and flexibility together create a support and rebound working mode, providing better safety for runners during the run.
2. Overall Details
The shoe upper design has been upgraded with seamless heat-bonding technology combined with jacquard mesh, focusing on breathability and heat dissipation, providing a lighter wearing experience for casual sports enthusiasts. The flexibility of the shoe body is impressive, almost allowing the front part of the upper to touch the tongue. This easy-to-bend feature will undoubtedly help runners push forward more smoothly.
The front of the tongue is printed with the Bmai bmai 5K logo. The overall tongue uses a lightweight and snug design. When you pinch the tongue lightly with your fingers, you can clearly feel the collision between the index finger and thumb as you explore inward along the tongue.
The insole surface fabric contains 35% hemp fiber, with the lower layer made of Ortholite material, which is moisture-wicking, quick-drying, antibacterial, and deodorizing.
Sole
Comfortable and lightweight outsole: The IP outsole that directly contacts the ground, with water ripple grooves, is lightweight and easy to bend.
Heel Functional Structure: Double-layer asymmetrical arc structure at the bottom, with a 10mm outwardly extended upper structure for stable support.
3. Actual Wearing Experience
First, let me talk about my personal situation.
Weight: 56 kg
Running Experience: 2 years, with 4 official half marathons and full marathons each, half marathon PB 1:42, full marathon PB 3:57, participated in 2 trail runs.
Foot Type: Normal arch, slightly higher, with mild pronation (refer to the illustration for judgment).
During a week of testing, I conducted multiple jogging tests, with the longest being a 13 km jog on the track. The biggest feedback from the shoes was the good cushioning effect. However, after a longer distance, the cushioning effect was less noticeable, but the shoes still protected my feet from injury. The hardness and elasticity of the shoes are proportional, sufficient for use, and running does not feel sluggish or difficult to exert force due to excessive softness. I am a forefoot striker, but I found it less comfortable than landing with the whole foot. Transitioning from the heel to the whole foot running method, the cushioning effect is more noticeable. Therefore, this is more suitable for whole foot strikers.
4. Summary
There are advantages but also some drawbacks, such as the strong smell of the shoes and the shoes being a bit wide. It is recommended to choose one size smaller when purchasing (if you can try them on, it is best to try them on before buying for a more secure fit).
